You can now forget about handwritten notes on the refrigerator without regret. The reTerminal Sticky is a device that transforms voice messages into static notes on an ePaper display, making family communication a little simpler and more technological. The main idea is straightforward: instead of searching for a sticker and a pen, just press a button on the Sticky's casing and dictate your message. The device converts speech to text, which is immediately displayed on the 3.97-inch screen. This eliminates the need to type or find your phone to leave a reminder for household members. A magnetic backing allows the display to be attached to any metal surface – be it the refrigerator door, a door frame, or another convenient location. Thus, important information will always be visible, without demanding extra attention like smartphone screens do. For those who are away from home, remote content updates are available. Via the Seeedash mobile app, you can send text or even a photo that will appear on the ePaper display, even if you are far away. This is convenient for urgent messages or simply for sharing something important with family. The ePaper screen, unlike regular LCD or OLED, has no backlight. This makes it look like paper, easy to read in any lighting, and, importantly, not distracting. In a home environment, where there are often many screens, such a solution appears as a breath of calm. The reTerminal Sticky offers an uncomplicated way to stay connected within the family, making the information exchange process as unobtrusive and accessible as possible.
