Greeting card with built-in LCD is cute, but not practical | DVICE
When the TV in a Card is opened, the embedded screen automatically starts playing. The idea is to bring back the surprise and heartfelt sentimental value that a paper card once brought to a person. Each card has a rechargeable lithium battery that lasts about 90 minutes and can play 30 minutes worth of video. Additionally, each paper card can be customized for a specific design or purpose. The TV in a Card can even be used as a digital brochure for selling wares.
TV in a Card
Thinking inside the box
Imagine the impact on your customers when they open a beautifully printed folder from you, and instead of seeing just text and photos, a full colour video with audio starts playing almost instantly.
Now you can combine surprise with the strong impact of video to both captivate your audience and deliver your message

TV in a Card brings video to brochures and greetings cards
The brainchild of Russell Lawley-Gibbs and Robert Green, a standard TV in a Card folder has A4 (297 x 210 mm / 11.7 x 8.3 inches) dimensions and opening the cover reveals a 4.3-inch, 320 x 240 resolution, 16:9 aspect LCD display powered by a custom board with built-in storage for about 30 minutes of video footage. There's an included speaker and headphone jack, and the Li-ion battery lasts about 1.5 hours before needing to be charged via the included USB port.
If required, battery capacity can be increased to up to 7.5 hours and onboard storage boosted up to 2GB – which is said to be enough for 4.5 hours of video. Customers can opt to have the video auto-start when the card is opened or manual control buttons can be positioned under the display (or elsewhere, if desired). Available controls include a power on/off switch, volume control, program/episode selection, play/pause, and fast forward/rewind.
