This time I will show you how to upload any image to E-paper display. Specifically it is about LilyGo T5 4.7-inch E-paper which has the following characteristics:
- ESP32 dual core MCU
- 4.7-inch integrated e-paper display - 540x960 pixels, 16 gray levels
- Allows usage of a touch screen
- 16MB flash
- 8MB PSRAM memory
- USB-C port
- built-in LiPo/Li-Ion battery charger
- integrated 18650 Li-Ion battery holder
- and 5 general purpose buttons
With this display you can make a beautiful retro look picture frame on which to change black and white images. This is made possible by the 16 gray levels that has this display.
As the name suggests, you need to make some kind of frame that will fit the screen. I made this frame on a 3D printer with PLA material in white. Let me mention that the display is very sensitive and can be damaged very easily, so we need to insert it very carefully in the frame. For the needs of the video I let the images change every 5 seconds but this time can simply be changed to the function "delay" and "update" in the code.
