The Polaroid picture is entering the digital age. Polaroid, the company that pioneered the instant photo 60 years ago, recently introduced the Pogo. The Polaroid Pogo uses a revolutionary process to transform digital photos stored on your mobile phone and digital camera into instant printed pictures.
The Polaroid PoGo is an inkless printer about the size of a deck of cards. The PoGo receives pictures from mobile phones and digital cameras using a Bluetooth or USB connection. The PoGo is the easiest way to print photos from your camera phone. You can wirelessly transfer images from your Bluetooth-enabled camera phone to the PoGo and print instantly. You can connect and print to the PoGo instantly using the built-in OBEX (object exchange profile) Bluetooth in your phone.
The PoGo prints full-color digital photos in 60 seconds without using ink cartridges or ribbons. Best of all – the pictures are instantly dry. The PoGo uses a technology called ZINK™, an inkless technology which Polaroid has spent decades developing. ZINK uses a special paper comprised of an advanced composite material that holds cyan, yellow and magenta dye crystals in a protective coat. Before printing, the paper appears white because the crystals are colorless. The PoGo uses a heat activation process to colorize the crystals, creating high quality images in less time than a traditional Polaroid photo.
