WHY BENCHPAD
A quieter way to communicate in public space
Municipal information should be visible when needed without creating more waste or constantly illuminated visual noise.
THE OLD PROBLEM
Disposable paper communication
Short-lived posters and printed notices can become waste and add visual clutter to public space.
THE DIGITAL PROBLEM
Always-on LED displays
Bright continuously illuminated screens can consume energy and compete for attention even when content is static.
E-INK APPROACH
Static information without continuous illumination
BenchPad is designed around low-power, updateable E-Ink displays for useful local and municipal information.
Live municipal information
The city, at a glance.
Useful public information where people already are — clear, local and easy to update.

A quieter way to communicate
Public information without adding more visual noise.
BenchPad is designed first for useful city information. As a secondary benefit, E-Ink can reduce dependence on disposable paper and continuously illuminated digital displays.
The old problemDisposable paper communication
Short-lived materials can become waste and visual clutter.
The other extremeAlways-on illuminated displays
Bright screens can consume continuous energy and add light to the urban environment.
BenchPad · useful information, calmly displayed.
Static E-Ink content remains visible without emitting light and can be updated when the information changes.
