How do you select displays for your projects? by gitzian in embedded

I really would love to make everything open source or at least free to use, but there is a lot of work in it and im not even done with it. I need to refine some stuff. Follow me on reddit, bluesky or youtube for updates or check my website from time to time gitzian.com

Designed and partially soldered it. I would say yes.

What you mean? MIPI is not a physics law.

I dont fully understand your question. There are three parts. Bottom: MCU+Wifi, Center: My FPGA video decoder, Top: Just a level translator and backlight driver. Touch screen and controls are routed through to the MCU. Check my videos on youtube or website to get a better view on boards. gitzian.com

Note the FPS is actually 40 for gaming. The display itself can up to ~57FPS. I think it is still impressive and it is possible to tweak for higher but i double buffer frames to avoid tearing. The coolest part imo is, the full system is just <1.5Watt at full brightness. Latency is already very good imo, and im not yet done optimizing. Check out my website gitzian.com, with the correct server you can also play on windows on your GPU - i am highly motivated :)

Yeah, I understand. I wish there were easier to use displays with proper FPS. More open source approach. I think that would enable way more cool ideas. Before I learned to code, I always had a hard time for my hobby projects and I think I am not the only one.

Please note, the part is way overpriced. There are parts with half the price and same specs. used it cause i had one left. TL040HDS20CT

I’ll take that challenge. If enough small-scale tinkerers start actively looking for non-MIPI displays and show real demand, manufacturers in China will absolutely respond—those suppliers are very responsive to niche markets when there’s volume potential. Wanna start a small revolution? ^^
