This display offers a simple API to build applications for it:

https://shop.invisible-computers.com/products/invisible-cale...

https://github.com/Invisible-Computers/image-gallery/blob/ma...

It's black-and-white, but dithering allows to show surprising detail and it brings its very own old-school aesthetic.

The API doesn't require any special knowledge about e-paper displays, it just expects an image URL in the correct resolution and will then render it to the display.

An app can be made public, such that other people who own the display can install it as well.

If you are interested in building an app, contact me at info@invisible-computers.com for a developer account :)



I think it’d be a little more honest if the first sentence started with „I offer a display with a simple API“.

It's not like I am hiding it? I just didn't think it mattered in that context that this is me.

But I see your point.


No worries. I actually like the display. Looks neat.


Is this for sale still? It shows sold out on the site.


I will hopefully have stock again soon.
