Small screen for visual stimulation #7

Open ClaireRusch opened 1 year ago

ClaireRusch commented 1 year ago

Hey guys, Here is the link to the display I was talking about: https://www.waveshare.com/2.8inch-HDMI-LCD-H.htm (there are also a couple more possible screens at the bottom of the list) I still have to think of how to make a cube/diamond shape given the frame around the screen and if we can plug them in series if that makes sense.

As long as you order them with the HDMI driver we should be able to use them.

Did you give up on the flexible screens?

ClaireRusch commented 1 year ago

I did not I was just unable to even find one small enough :-) I feel like there is no such screen on the market now but I may be wrong.

Hey Bruno, do you know of those screens: https://www.crystalfontz.com/product/cfal16032a0018pw-flexible-oled-display-160x32. I am not sure how Bonsai would work with this kind of interface? Also I will order the screen that we talked about (the waveshare one). Should I order it to directly deliver to you or is there a shipping/travel planned from/to CCU?

This kind of interface would require significant investment to have it work with Bonsai. Also, I am not such if such a small resolution would even justify doing so, to be honest... Ideally, I would go for something 720p, like a cellphone screen that we can drive with a HDMI interface.
