About the Project
Meet Paper Widget, a desktop device that blends vintage charm with modern functionality; featuring an e-Paper display, which is a paper-like screen that uses ink dots instead of LEDs, produces no harsh backlighting, offering a softer, more natural viewing experience that’s gentle on your eyes throughout the day.
How it Works
Paper Widget connects to the internet to automatically display your local time, date, and current weather information including the temperature, conditions (sunny, rainy, etc.), and humidity level. When Wi-Fi isn’t available, the device’s built-in clock keeps track of time accurately. It also has a built-in humidity sensor, so you can see your indoor humidity level in addition to the outdoor percentage.
The design is inspired by classic all-in-one desktops, featuring a warm beige exterior, fitting for the simple charm of the e-Paper display. The result is a compact and nostalgic accessory that looks right at home on any desk or workspace.
