An E-sheet (computer sheet) appears to be a piece of paper, but it has a digital interface which is touch-sensitive, and is networked. Users are capable of sending electronic communications with their e-sheets. ("Pilot")

An e-sheet has other uses. It can be used to access V-World via a password. An e-sheet can also be used to watch an online video or television broadcast. ("Pilot") ("Rebirth")

Examples[]

Behind the Scenes[]

The e-sheets used regularly in the series were created by using a version of the same motion-capture technology used to base CGI characters on the movements of real actors. In this case, a sheet of paper covered with a grid of dots was used by the actors. CGI was then able to superimpose the "computer" image onto the paper, even allowing the image to bend and move like real paper when touched, because a real piece of paper was the basis for the model. This was particularly effective in the "Pilot", when Agent Jordan Duram gave a "folded" paper screen to Amanda Graystone.[1]
