Re: suggestions for a graphics display

Farhan good thinking. However, I would suggest not to use the small displays as it will be difficult for most of the old timers to read. Balance the size with cost Thanks and regards Lawrence

3) ILI9341 display driven by additional arduino nano. The first two have wholesale prices of a couple of dollars, and are simple to use and program. Obviously if you need something better (colors etc ...) you need other displays but the problem is the inability to exploit it fully with the arduino 328p. Possibly you could build an "intelligent display" using a 2.2-inch SPI display and 65000 colors ILI9341 driven by an arduino that exposes via liea I2C serial commands "similar to the nexion" towards the main arduino on which the Raduino code runs. This way I think the costs could go: $ 4 on the display and about $ 2 for a dwarf arduino.
