The article itself mentions E Ink’s Kaleido 3 technology. I’m not really sure on the semantics of “e-ink” vs “e-paper”, but your take sounds good enough to me. I do know that E Ink makes a product internally (maybe also externally? idk) refered to as “ACeP”, which stands for “Advanced Color e-Paper”, so e-ink definitely classifies as a type of e-paper.

One of their older color products is a traditional B/W screen with an RGB filter over the top. The problem with this is the filter tends to make everything way darker and muted than it should be.

They are also working on newer ACeP screens that use multiple colored dye and pigment particles in the same capsule. By swapping the colors around with specific electric waveforms, they can control what the color looks like from the front. The downside is that this color swapping often takes several seconds to produce the correct color ((also the color gamut has a lot of holes))

Hi! Former E Ink employee here. The technology behind color e ink displays is an intricate nightmare of juggling different ink particles through a gel medium (which is actually derived from pig fat btw). It’s a miracle it even works in the first place, and unfortunately higher color accuracy comes at the cost of refresh rate due to all the steps involved. Not sure how in-depth I can go without violating my NDA though lol.

While the color tech is advancing, it’s still got a long way to go.

The article starts by doing the “quantum” thing that really irks me, where they use confusing terminology to make it sound like “FTL communication” without actually saying it. This is garbage that doesn’t actually matter to the article.

Basically, they found a way to send quantum entangled photons (which exist in a very delicate unobserved state) through existing fiber optic infrastructure without interfering with the standard internet information already travelling through the fiber. A lot of the difficulty with this is due to signal noise that needs to be filtered out. This will be useful communicating quantum measurements over long distances.
