rotating tile pattern on Pimoroni Inky pHAT EPD display<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is a 600 dpi scan of a Pimoroni Inky pHAT<\/a> EPD display. EPDs \u00e2\u20ac\u201d electrophoretic displays, aka \u00e2\u20ac\u02dce-ink\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 or \u00e2\u20ac\u02dce-paper\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 \u00e2\u20ac\u201d retain their image when turned off, so this Raspberry Pi had no power when I scanned it.<\/p>\n

The image I made to fit the display is really<\/em> small \u00e2\u20ac\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It’s a bit of a process<\/a> making the images with just the right palette in GIMP, but I’m pleased how it turned out. I’d like to be able to write the vector images directly to the screen from SVG, but that might take some time.<\/p>\n
