A smartphone made from electronic paper has been revealed by researchers in Canada。

　　The PaperPhone is flexible and can be controlled by being bent, written on or used as a touchscreen。

　　The PaperPhone, built to determine how people use a flexible device, is a collaboration between researchers from Queens University in Kingston, Canada, Arizona State University, USA, researchers from the E-Ink Corporation。

　　This is the future. Everything is going to look and feel like this within five years, Roel Vertegaal, director of the human media lab at Queens, said. This computer looks, feels and operates like a small sheet of interactive paper。

　　The epaper sheet, which uses the same e-Ink technology found in the Amazon Kindle ereader, is just millimetres thick and can be used to make phone calls, read ebooks and play music。

　　The researchers say that this technology could eventually mean the end of paper and printers. Dr Vertegaal said: The paperless office is here. Everything can be stored digitally and you can place these computers on top of each other, just like a stack of paper。

　　加拿大研究人员日前研发了一款使用电子纸制作的智能纸手机。

　　这款纸手机非常轻薄，而且还可以通过弯曲、书写、或当作触摸屏使用进行相应操作。

　　该手机是由位于加拿大金斯敦的女王大学、美国亚利桑那州立大学、以及电子墨水公司三家机构的研究人员共同研制的，用以明确人们如何使用轻薄可弯曲的电子产品。
