Aura’s impressive e-ink photo frame doesn’t even look digital

Aura has introduced the Aura Ink, a redesigned digital photo frame that uses e-ink instead of a conventional screen. The result is a photo display meant to look less like a gadget and more like a printed picture in a traditional frame.

The product points to a broader push toward calmer, less screen-like home technology that blends into decor. If successful, ambient displays could become more appealing as gifts and household devices by reducing the visual fatigue associated with conventional digital screens.
