Long time no update, but not any longer!

Here is a short demo video of the current touch interface I am working on for my WiFi Radio project:



A few quick details:

  • The touch detection and resolution is all done on the Arduino, and works reasonably well if you use your fingernail. Detected touch events are encoded and can be send out via serial.
  • The LCD/TFT looks a lot better in reality. The screen flickers a bit when drawing, but not as bad as in the video.
  • Yes, the cables are a bit messy.
Oh, and Happy New Year if you care.

    new fritzing version & s65 tft schematics



    There is a new version of Fritzing out for 2 days now. Yay!
    I jumped onto the opportunity and created some schematics for the S65 TFT display while playing with the new version.

    More about the new Fritzing version and the schematics after the jump...

    I finally got my screen to work! Here are some background information AND working standalone Arduino code/sketch to test your S65 TFT!

    Woot! My small TFT display arrived today, after only 2 days!
    It's a mobile phone display for old Siemens phones (CX65/CX70/M65/S65/CXT70/CXV70).

    Here is a picture of it:



     Now, all I need to do is solder onto the connector...
