PISUPPLY-002

      PaPiRus Zero – ePaper / eInk Screen pHAT for Pi Zero PISUPPLY‐002          PaPiRus Zero is an ePaper / eInk screen pHAT designed for the Raspberry Pi Zero. It’s one of the first true low power displays for the Pi Zero mini computer. ePaper / eInk is a display technology that mimics the appearance of ink on normal paper. Unlike conventional displays, ePaper reflects light – just like ordinary paper – and is capable of holding text and images indefinitely, even without electricity. Because of this, ePaper displays and single board computers or microcontrollers are a match made in heaven as together they use a very small amount of power whilst still bringing a display to your project. The ePaper display that comes with PaPiRus Zero is a 2″ diagonal and 200 x 96 resolution ePaper display. One fantastic aspect of the ePaper display is the fact they don’t need any power to keep the image on the screen. Just like a Kindle, you can read whatever is on your screen in daylight without any reflection. More information including wiring diagrams, datasheets & and links to example code are available at rePaper. Potential Use Cases:        An eInk / ePaper Nametag  Display the latest weather forecast  A Pi Zero ePaper watch  Display your own Twitter Feed  Small dynamic digital signage (such as displaying prices for products in a store)  Outdoor displays where you don’t want the screen to be affected by sunlight reflection  Any sort of data‐logging applications    PLEASE NOTE!! The PaPiRus Zero doesn’t come with a stacking header for use with the Pi Zero! If you  still need one though, you can pick one up here.                                                https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/papirus‐zero‐epaper‐eink‐screen‐phat‐for‐pi‐zero 4/19/2017
