I love these kind of projects. But what I'd like is slightly bigger than kindle e-ink display that shows a webpage of my choice. And I'd like it to run off mains power.
Then I can pretty much show what I want - so it's easy to set up a rotating dashboard with the weather, my calendar, TFL alerts, whatever.
Why doesn't this exist?!
- dominotw 6y agocan you open that webpage in 10 in or 13 inch eink devices ? Plenty of them out there. I even watch youtube videos on mine.
- hultner 6y agoWhich device?

- miniatureape 6y agoIf not a webpage I would be happy with it displaying a bitmap. Let me put in a URL and poll it with the dimensions as query param. I will handle the render and serve back whatever I want. I could draw my calendar on the left, the weather in one corner and todo list in another.
- dmitrygr 6y agoYou can buy eInk price tags off eBay (7.4 inch price data brand, $25 each). I am releasing in a week or so, a cursory firmware for them that allows drawing on them in greyscale plus yellow any image you want, uploaded remotely. Quite cheap. Years of battery life.
- vessenes 6y agoit does - visionect has them.
