Liquavista is a Dutch-based company founded in 2006 as a spin-off from Philips.[citation needed] Its research and development have included efforts to develop colour e-paper video screens that can work with or without a backlight using electrowetting technology.[citation needed] It is reported to have teamed up with Texas Instruments (TI) to combine Liquavista screens with TI's OMAP processors in a portable media player or e-reader.[citation needed]
Liqavista began the final step in fully commercialising the technology in 2010, as it sent out SDKs to OEMs.[citation needed] It is also reportedly working with Plastic Logic to create thin flexible newspapers.[citation needed] Liquavista was reported to anticipate the first productions runs of its electrowetting display panel to come in 2013.[1][needs update]
In Dec. 2010, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd acquired Liquavista B.V. for an undisclosed amount.[citation needed] On May 13, 2013, Amazon.com confirmed that it had acquired Liquavista from Samsung Electronics.[2]
