โ•ญ ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ ยท The Pimoroni Inky Impression 13.3" is beautiful! e-Paper has a long way to go in terms of color gamut, precision and refresh times, but the reflective surface makes
๐• โ”Š e-Paper feel more natural and โ€˜in the worldโ€™ than emissive displays.

๐•Ÿ โ”Š ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™ยท Super excited to explore colorimetry with two breakout boards from Adafruit, one sporting an XYZ sensor and the other detecting 8 bands in the visible spectrum with
๐•– โ”Š an additional near infra-red band and another broad spectrum (white light) sensor. They power up and found by i2cdetect on my Raspberry Pi and it's time to start
โ•ฐ poking around the sample code to get them up and running.
1 ๐Ÿฎ ๐Ÿš๐Ÿยท I finished implementing SDL โ€˜framebufferโ€™ objects which display a screen sized OpenGL texture. Framebuffer support is primarily for debugging, but also can be used
โ”Š with small โ€˜gadgetโ€™ displays, like Pimoroni's Display Hat Mini, ePaper displays, also available from Pimoroni or from Waveshare, which I used to prototype a Raspberry
โ•ฐ Pi based e-Reader.
