How Spectra™ 6 Works
Spectra displays are made of millions of Microcups® that suspend the particles in a clear fluid, enabling precise movement and stable color rendering. By combining red, yellow, green, and blue alongside monochrome, it achieves a rich six-color palette, delivering vivid images with paper-like readability.
