Ok, some good news: I got my board today. It's not a PyBoard, but an STM32 running MicroPython. I have to admit that it took me the entire afternoon, but I learned a lot of stuff and I managed to make the E-Paper display work using pythoncoder 's driver. I'd like to thank you very much for making th...

I was mainly looking for a dot matrix display because I'd like to show different values in the same screen, and some have to be bigger than the others. Also, the system has a few configuration parameters that have to be set by the user, so I was planning on making a menu (the previous version has on...

I was thinking that maybe a combination of this display (it has a review of good direct sunlight readability at the bottom): http://www.buydisplay.com/default/review/product/list/id/609/category/41/ with this adapter that converts it to I2C: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Graphic-LCD-12864-adapter-...

Hello everyone! Earlier this year I have been working on a project for an off-road motorcycle tripmaster (an odometer with some added rally functions). I made it based on Arduino: https://matto.io/roadbook-con-tripmaster/ (sorry, it's in spanish). But I quickly found a lot of things I'd want to impr...

Thanks for your answer! I guess I'll have to wait for my PyBoard to arrive then :) It's a shame, because the WiFi module would come handy for this display, and it's also very small. What I'm trying to do is a motorcycle odometer. This display is perfect because of the direct sunlight visibility, but...

Ok, I have good and bad news. Good first: I think I found a reference on how to wire the display to the NodeMCU board here: https://blog.squix.org/2017/02/esp8266-peripherals-2-7-epaper-display.html They were able to drive the Embedded Artists display with the NodeMCU board, but using the Arduino en...

When the rewards for the ESP8266 Kickstarter are sent out I'll have one to try but I'll be surprised if it works to a usable extent. Hi pythoncoder ! I'm curious about how your driver behaves with the ESP8266. Where you able to test it? I received two of these wonderful displays today and I'm still...

[quote="pythoncoder"]As the author of the 2.7" driver [url]https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-epaper.git[/url] I made an attempt to follow this up. I located a datasheet for the device, which had good details of the hardware but fell a long way short of the programming detail required to writ...

Thanks for your reply! That is good news, I hope you can find the time for this. Sadly, at this moment money is limited, that's why I want to make sure I buy the correct display :roll:, but I agree giving one to the active developers would be very nice. If someone else is interested we could share t...

Hi guys! This is my first post here :) I have a PyBoard 1.1, and I've found an E-Ink display that perfectly fits my needs: http://www.waveshare.com/2.13inch-e-paper-hat.htm I'm new to MicroPython and Python in general. My project will use 2 of those, but I don't want to buy them until I'm sure there...
