I made these breakout boards to test the @azumotech#LPM027M128B reflective display. Thanks @JLCPCB for manifacturing and soldering those super tiny FPC connectors. Now the challenge is developing the firmware to drive the display.
@pi0bikecomputer@azumotech I was also keeping an eye on LPM027M128B when I noticed this new model. Seems like it’s not available yet for purchase, I can’t even find the model code in the data sheet. I want to test it with my library!
@pi0bikecomputer@ESP8266@ESP32net Hey! Happy new year!
This is very interesting, I didn’t even thing about “mixing” the colors. I will have to learn more about color space, palettes and conversion.
@ESP8266 The #ESP32 has enough memory to enable the drawing optimization. I was expecting more FPS for a full screen update but drawing only the different lines the results are good.
@ESP32net#Arduino#display
The display library works on the #ESP8266 as well but it doesn't have enough memory to allocate the double display buffer to implement the different lines update optimization. Not quite usable for a real time application at this refresh rate.

@sulfuroid@tindie I am doing something similar and I was exploring some alternatives. Thanks for the answer. The problem is that the back of my display is not flat because there is the front light LED
@pi0bikecomputer I ordered 10 boards, I want to keep 2 or 3 of them for myself. I can ship the others if the shipping costs are not too high. I would be happy if you can use them to make some amazing stuff
@pi0bikecomputer Yes I will share the schematic but please keep in mind that the version 1.0 you see in the picture has a couple of problems: the frontlight is weak because should be powered with 5v instead of 3.3v and R3 is too big. I will write everything on my GitHub page
