A car that can change its color (BMW i5 Flow Nostokana)
What if your car could change its color? @bmwgroup
This car is the i5 Flow Nostokana, created by BMW engineer Stella Clarke and her team, a tribute to the art of Esther Mahlangu
The color-changing tech is made out of E Ink (yes, the stuff in your kindle!)
A bit more context on why I’ve gotten so obsessed with E Ink lately…
I’ve been feeling tired of looking at bright screens all day, and started experimenting with E Ink screens. For the past few months, I’ve been using an E Ink phone and computer monitor for part of the day, and it’s been so refreshing. It lets me use tech in a less stimulating and dopamine-addicting way - a way that feels healthier and more sustainable. But E Ink technology is still not that widely understood or adopted…
So when BMW let me check out the E Ink car, I was so excited to see it with my own eyes. Massive respect to BMW engineer Stella Clarke and her team for pushing E Ink technology forward in such an innovative way.
