Company Vision

Building readable, mobile, and versatile building blocks and solutions for next generation eReaders. Thanks to the revolutionary technology of electronic paper displays (EPD), electronic readers are now an established presence in the consumer electronics market. With rapidly decreasing prices, flexible EPD displays, Qualcomm Mirasol displays, the future is bright with bi-stable displays.

We believe there's a need for a convergent technology not only for reading downloaded electronic books, but also versatile enough to be interoperable with existing tools, compatible with the latest applications, connected with a fully operational browser, and fully expandable for the future. Spring Design is striving to develop the expertise and partnerships necessary to achieve that goal.
