Smart E-paper Magic Calendar

A designer named Kosho Tsuboi has conceived a beautiful gadget idea. His product, the Magic Calendar, is an e-paper calendar that syncs with a smartphone to display your schedule. The project is associated with Google’s Android Experiments, which appears to be a Japanese program in which creators can pitch ideas for Android-centered gadgets. 

The Magic Calendar was on display in Japan earlier this month and the Magic Calendar will be further developed although there are no details yet of commercial availability. The current version uses a low reflection display, but will continue to be developed and it looks like Tsuboi has also experimented with a desk-size version, too. So that it can be brought closer to the texture of paper when high-definition electronic paper can be used in the future. The calendar syncs to Google Calendar to allow constant updating of the paper-like calendar, providing both technology and the old-style feel of a paper calendar hanging on a wall.
