I work on e-paper displays. Are you looking for something built with a Kindle?
This project of mine is similar to what you described with a power down mode. The power down and wake up can be automated. I'm looking to build a small business around such projects. Not sure how viable it is.

- stavros 1y agoIt does seem pretty viable, TRMNL are pretty popular: https://usetrmnl.com https://usetrmnl.com I made some stuff of mine for that display too, but the easiest way is to just use TRMNL's firmware, as it supports autoupdates and a few other nice features. Here's mine: https://www.stavros.io/posts/making-a-trmnl-device/ https://www.stavros.io/posts/making-a-trmnl-device/ Plus this: https://www.stavros.io/posts/making-the-timeframe/ https://www.stavros.io/posts/making-the-timeframe/ And a few more things I never wrote about. The Kindle project is just because I have a few Kindles lying around, so I might as well use them!
- kovac 1y agoThat's beautiful, thanks for sharing. I was wondering what may be the best way to do frames. Custom frames, here in Singapore, are a bit expensive relative to the rest of the parts.
- stavros 1y ago3D printing is one good way, the other way I used is just to get a frame from IKEA and 3D print the inside white bit to my exact dimensions, which worked beautifully. I should post that build too, with some photos, I really like it.
