E-Paper

Hi
I am working on a low power product that requires an epaper display. I am deciding between the Kent choristic display or a pervasive displays epaper one
The pervasive displays one runs over SPI and works in a similar manner to a TFT

The kent has some pretty good libraries written for it already by Timm at http://tim.cexx.org/

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the displays and would using standard LCD libraries with little modification work for the Pervasive display?

Do you know where you can actually buy these displays in small quantities at a realistic price. I would be interested if you could.

Me too. I have looked extensively for these and not been able to find anything remotely affordable.

I couldn't find a way to purchase low volume or one-off's of either of the two you reference.

I am going to be using this for a project where i will be buying 50 so I am within the limits of small quantities. I really wish sparkfun or adafruit would sell them with a breakout board (hint hint) to make development easier

Yes but from where?

the Kent displays are from a company called manhattan skyline (very nice people) and the pervasive ones are from densitron displays (nightmare to deal with)

Hello! I'm wondering, did you manage to get hold of the screens?

I'd like to use 15 Pervasive Displays screens in a project, specifically the 2.7" ones. So I phoned Densitron, but they said they're built to order and that I would need to buy around 400. Through Ineltek.com I could order smaller amounts, but shipping time would be 16 weeks.

Hi all

Any Update on "Pervasive Displays" have some tiny glitches to get it run with 2.7" Panel and Arduino Uno

Hi, no update sorry, we ended up going with a regular LCD due to cost, I do have a 5" pervasive display hooked up to a pic dev board though but havent had much of a chance to play with it.
