Learn how to use the OLED SSD1320 160x80px connected to Arduino UNO using either the IIC or SPI connection. This display is very unusal and at certain angles, looks like a mirror.

Normal oleds have a polarizing filter on top to increase contrast. If you peel this filter off you can turn any oled into a mirror one. I did this a few years ago on a screen whose filter got really scratched up and liked the look so I just never replaced the filter.

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for the clarification, do you have any photos of your display? Also, do you know if there is any real technical advantage of having such display?

@sjm4306 7 месяцев назад

@@upir_upir I still have it somewhere, probably still packed since I moved into a new house. I'll see if I can find it and link a picture. As for an advantage, not really other than maybe aesthetics (at the cost of visibility). I guess technically it's twice as bright for the same current draw since polarizers cut roughly half incoming unpolarized light.

@medan108 7 месяцев назад

So uh any image?

@desmond-hawkins 7 месяцев назад

It's really good to see this explanation around memory usage. I find that Arduino boards can often be challenging to developers just starting with this kind of hardware, counting RAM in KB is definitely a major limitation (compared to say the MBs you often find on ESP32 boards). It's even more difficult with ATtiny chips, e.g. an ATtiny85 has 8KB of flash and 512B of RAM if I remember correctly. Power consumption for these chips is fantastic though!

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

Thank you, I´m glad you like it. And you are correct about the ATtiny85, since I´m currently working on a project using this chip. Plus, if you use bootloader, it´s only 6KB of Flash.. anyway, expect a video soon..

@user-dx8iy5or6s 7 месяцев назад

It's just a normal OLED without polarizer, the polarizer ages in the air, so the producer always skip the last step, and leave it for the reseller to install the polarizer and protective film. You can just peel off the gray plastic film on a normal OLED and it will become like this one. The polarizer is for reduce reflection.

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for the clarification, someone had pointed this out earlier in the comments. It’s just unusual to be able to get the display without the polarizer. I wonder if you can also get the polarizer alone and apply it. Would it be similar to just using a sticker, or is there any special equipment required? I will definitely try to remove this layer from one of my OLED display.

@ivanalaskevich4736 7 месяцев назад

I saw similar displays on some rear-view mirrors. But it was a cheaper configuration, without OLED - the mirror surface was “above” the display and caused significant interference for both the rear-view and for the display itself.

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

I believe in that case, the display is mounted under an actual mirror.

@0hellow797 7 месяцев назад

Put a second two way mirror on top and you could get a sick infinity effect!

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

I guess the mirror has to be below the display, right?

@moki123g 7 месяцев назад

I was thinking the same. I might give it a shot.

You can still try it with the transparent display, I think that should work.

You can make most OLED's mirror-like like this one by peeling off the front polarizer.

@upir_upir 3 месяца назад

Have you tried that? How would you remove that layer without damaging the display?

With this kind of display u can read the news when brushing your teeth

@JeremySeitz 7 месяцев назад

maybe you can aim a focused light on the display, and the graphics could be projected on a wall?

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

That´s an interesting idea, I wonder if that would work.

@zaprodk 3 месяца назад

Nah, it would reflect the same amount of light regardless if the pixels are lit or unlit. What you see in the reflection is the electrode structure evaporated on the glass.

Is there any seamless bezeless display? Bigger size is okay

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

I haven´t seen one for Arduino. Can´t you use a bigger display instead?

@jeffschroeder4805 7 месяцев назад

I agree that it is difficult to imagine any advantage to a display like this - it mostly interferes with being able to view the graphics..

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

I still think it looks cool, but obviously in some angles, you cannot see anything...

@andymouse 7 месяцев назад

That is unusual indeed and has a sort of VFD vibe going on but not quite there ! I guess if your super paranoid you could read data whilst keeping an eye out behind you, other than that I have nothing !...cheers !

How to display images on oled display from sd card module?

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

Store images on sd card > read data with Arduino > draw those on display. Wokwi actually have some examples, let me find it..

Here is any example how to do that - wokwi.com/projects/319810932695892564

@upir_upir Thanks for your reply, but I am using ESP32, and it looks like Adafruit ImageReader library isn't working for esp32. Is there any other way?

@RommudohDev 7 месяцев назад

only reason to use something like that would be a smart mirror, but for that it's too small.

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

@VEC7ORlt 7 месяцев назад

There is not advantage to this type of display - they just don't put the anti-glare film on it.

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

Yep, I have already found out based on the previous comments. I haven´t found out if you can buy the polarizer film alone and if you can also apply it without any special equipment. That said, I still like the unusual mirror look of the display - and the brightness.

@VEC7ORlt 7 месяцев назад

@@upir_upir I don't think its a polarizer, its an anti glare film - different structure and function. Pretty sure you can find some online, as for applying - the classic - soapy water and queeze out the bubbles.

@@VEC7ORltThank you for the clarification. I will see if I can find it and buy it and turn this into a proper display.

@upir_upir 7 месяцев назад

It definitely looks very unusual, I´m sure there are some projects where it would fit the aesthetics. But I´m also sure there are many projects where it does not make any sense to have this display.
