I would like to learn how to create cool-looking graphics, and how to display it on embedded displays. You know, things like Arduino, ESP32, Micro:bit, Raspberry PI, combined with monochrome OLED, colorful OLED, IPS LCD screens. Please join me on my journey, as I will learn new stuff and share my knowledge with others.
Do you have any questions? Feel free to send me an e-mail.
Other youtube channels I admire and I have learned a lot from: Ben Eater: ru-vid.com The 8-Bit Guy: ru-vid.com EEVblog: ru-vid.com
Using rgb leds could be useful for readabilit, by making every number a diffrent color it would be way easier to tell which gear is selected. Great video. Your channel is underappreciated.
Thank you for your time I like your channel very much Can you please make TFT color LCD example for water tank level showing level percentage as graph animation and battery level Thanks and Best regards
Thank you for your comment, I´m glad you like it. Do you have any example as to what you would like to create? Is it a water tank level for rain water, or something else? What should be the battery level for? Thank you!
@@upir_upir thank you for your reply actually it is domestic water tank for house application the volume 2000Lit and it is circular type with hight of 2 meters I will try to send you the details of the project by email thank you again 🙏

That´s correct, I describe it in my other video. There are separate applications for every size, and the themes has to be done in a different way. Also, the 3.5" has some limitations compared to the 5" version - for example you cannot play background video on that screen.
Is it possible to change the code to show 0-0.5-1.0-1.5 and for example to add “bar” in the top right or bottom right corner. Can you explain in which row and what i must change?
Yes, all of this should be possible and hopefully not that hard. I would suggest to watch my other tutorials about Arduino and OLED displays, a lot of those topics are covered there and you will hopefully get a better understanding on how to create exactly what you would like to get.
@@upir_upir ok, i will watch your another tutorials. I will try to understand how exactly to change the code,just my knowledge about arduino codes are very basic. If i don’t understand will you help me?
Thank you so much for the vid, I've been frustrated trying to figure out how to set a video for the 3.5 inch, I guess you stupidly can't. shouldn't be a different UI for every screen honestly. extra unnecessary work just to make the smaller screen worse quality.
You are welcome. Indeed you cannot play video on the 3.5” screen, but it’s not because it uses a different software. This is a limitation of the chip used in the screen, it’s simply not powerful enough to play videos.
@@upir_upir ah okay well that sucks, I custom 3D modeled a whole 3D print for a Fallout terminal for it to go into and not I have to redesign it for 5”
1:53 Umm... 3 pin connectors are almost as common as 4 pin ones. But maybe they use 4 pin connectors for some other products and don't want to stock both kinds, so use 4 pin for everything.
Video host, hello. I really like your videos, especially those related to OLEDs. This time's video is also great. I have watched almost all of your videos and I really like them. I want to learn more about embedded screen operations from you, so can you talk more about that OLED menu? I have watched your previous video and it seems complicated. Can you use a more convenient way to achieve it? If possible, could you please send the tutorial again? Thank you. Besides, can you also send some teaching materials for 1.8-inch RGB TFT screens in the future? I can't find too many tutorials for this screen online, please.
Here's a silly thought. If you're building a sim shifter and are going to have a microcontroller in the knob, and if you're building your own shifter using hollow 10mm tubing, you can connect it to the master microcontroller (the one that does USB and position readings) with a mini-XLR connector, used as both quick release mechanical and electric connection. It can even be done with mere 3 pin connector, with gnd, vcc and data with data being either mono directional UART or bidirectional OneWire. I think bidirectional UART can work as well, if initially and after every transmission you HiZ (disable) the TX pin on the corresponding microcontroller, then connect all the RX and TX lines together via 1K resistors. You also need a robust M/S distinction where the S will only send in reply to M via polling, because you have no collision handling. Other connector pin counts are available as well, up to 6, to make life less difficult.
