4D Systems Display – on Arduino!

Just to show you that I don’t just do Raspberry Pi stuff…

4D system have produced a shield that allows you to connect the Intelligent displays up to the Arduinos serial port, so I’ve ported the Raspberry Pi VisiGeni driver to the Arduino…

There’s  few small limitations on the Arduino, but for the most part the calculator demo program you see running in the Arduino is the same as the one on the Raspberry Pi (it needs to be “Arduinoised” to use the Arduino sketch setup() and loop() mechanisms, but that’s all – there’s also a feature of Arduino that makes for an intereting time printing floating point numbers, but a minor detail here!)
