Touch Display 
The EGM-5 features a 2.7” a-Si, active matrix TFT, Electronic Paper Display (EPD) touch panel. The 
panel has such high resolution (117 dpi) that it is able to easily display fine patterns with excellent 
readability under sunlight conditions. Due to its bi-stable nature, the EPD panel requires very little power 
to update and needs no power to maintain an image.
