As an alternative to watches and guages, you could turn these into MIDI instrument & synthesiser controllers, so the dials could be software defined and much more flexible than traditional dials. I'm working on this kind of idea right now using magnetic encoders and displays, and I think this would be a great fit for another version of it. Thanks for sharing your code!
Very nice pair of demos. Makerfabs is very wise to send you these so you'd write such terrific demos for their fine products. I hope I can find an application to justify buying one or more soon, since the prices do seem reasonable. I'm very new to this, but do now have 6 TTGO T Display modules ( with your projects running on 3 of them) and couple dozen other small OLED and TFT displays I haven't built yet. For me, Its FAR more difficult to write, or decipher and debug s/w for these things than to do the h/w but that challenge is part of the fun. Your tutorials on the basics really helped me a lot. Thank You jimS
I have few displays , but wish someone would do a 12.3 with esp32 for a full digital dash for microsquirt ecu & truck functions. Thanks for your great videos.
Hi Volos, I just got the new Lilygo T-Display-AMOLED-S3. It's terrific! First time I ever had an AMOLED on an ESP32. True blacks and the colours pop. I think you might enjoy it for our projects. The first production run is sold out but there are more coming plus a touch version in the pipeline.
@@VolosProjects No it's fast. I'm gonna convert some of your projects (with animation) and do a speed comparison but QSPI for 240x536 should out perform the standard T-Display with i8080 8-bit MCU parallel. I'll stick to your original resolution for the speed test tho, and not render the 'extra' pixels - just for fairness. The colours are a little over saturated which is common when playing TFT IPS demos on AMOLED in my experience but the driver is very simple and the datasheet from Raydium shows colour correction registers available. I've extended the driver to include functions for brightness, invert colours, display on/off, sleep etc. I'll pull request those to lilygo as their code is still 'preliminary' - but it works out of the box. I too have been waiting for this for ages. No more backlight bleed!
@@VolosProjects Can you persuade max3ddesign to design a case for it? I really like the T-Display one. BTW, the data shown on the website for the pre-order amoled board is not up to date. The actual shipped unit is much nicer with a different display - 240x536 vs 194x368. I'm not sure why the preliminary hardware is still listed or why you've not recieved yours yet if you pre-ordered.
@@VolosProjects Loving your channel! One question: I am ordering a T-Display S3 Touch. Which IDE and version do you recommend? Will ARDUINO 2.1.0 work? And what version of the ESP32 library? I read that there are problems with some IDE versions that can mess up the board.
Make one like this for after market controlers for electric dirtbikes like surron, there is litteraly zero option that doesn't look like shit from 2000 or way to big, I subed to your channel and will learn all what it takes to do one, but if you make some you can sell them for sure. I really don't understand why no one made it allready, looks so easy to do seriously
Nice Displays. But there is no information about how long are there available. If i start a Project, and after one year, no one can reproduce, makes it sensles.
Just started with ESP32, but I already have about 15 boards. And I have an embarrassing number of TFTs from the past. Maybe we need to start a 12-step group for this? Thanks for the tip on Makerfabs, though my bank account is already feeling a bit sick. :((
Avoid clocks and guages on the 4" display 'cos the pixel pitch is not square so your circles end up looking like eggs - and Easter is past! Unfortunately, many of the popular dev boards use displays with non-square pixels. If accurate screen geometry is important then check the screen datasheet before purchase.
love your videos :) I live in Albania and I am restoring the only vw t2 left in the whole country :-D same as you i am addicted to work on the old cars, and I am so happy to find your channel because I want to add some simple gauge in my bus, always if there will be any more left in my wallet after i finish the diy restoration .... i bought a RPM tachometer online and it looks ugly on my dash so this project of your will be awesome.. really awesome.. hope there is any way to be in touch with you time after time to get some ideas.. :) I support your channel :)
Hi, i really have no clue of all this stuff, is there a way to just like play gifs or stuff via usb Connection in a car? Like Compact just put in somewhere in the car.🎉

What a really cool display and dial implementation. I really hope that someone develops a round touch display that's built into a proper watch like the LilyGo T-Watch 2020. I own 17 different types of display units and have 12 Arduino compatible MCU dev boards, but mainly now develop solutions based around the ESP32 TinyPICO Nano MCU as it's so small and feature packed.

Ther are the amazfit watches gtr and gts, ect they are round and the other square or was it the other way around 🤔🤗, but they are not specially completed customer programmable but they are some custom firmwares I think.
@@VolosProjects Hehe, yes I think we have the same addiction ;) Keep going with your display projects. Your hard work and creativity is appreciated by this community.
I am curious to see how much you spent on playing music! I do have lots of embedded stuff but stop buying and start making more. My other hobby is FPV drone. That is lots of money too. I also stop buying and fly more.
@@VolosProjects Shure, the code compiles no problem what so ever, but I only got a Black screen with a small and tiny zero at the left bottom. also you got int segments=0; declared twice and rA=2*rpmAngle*1.6;
i removed errors, now it shoud work, be aware that maybe your esp board dont have enougth memory for 240bx 240 sprite , older boards can show only 200x200
yes, i have, and to he honest i did not like it. i am not sure if i whoud be able to make this using python , it is slower and there is hard to find informations how to setup new board using python. I use python every day at my work, i teach kids how to use it. but i dont like to program development board with python, only board that was nice to program with it was micro:bit
@@VolosProjects yes，I understand mpy is slower. but one of my interesting ideas is to install mpy modules of watch face on the fly just like you would install an app on the phone
Your code examples do not work. I bought the exact round displays from makerfabs after seeing this video, and downloaded the code and libraries from the links. They must have changed, as your code just gives a blank screen. Please correct the code and library versions and provide relevant links, as there is no other information I can find on this display... Thanks!
you also need to have tft_espi library, do you have one instaled? here you can find setup file for this display.Replace file in your library with this one github.com/Makerfabs/ESP32-S3-Round-SPI-TFT-with-Touch-1.28/blob/main/example/tft_espi_demo/User_Setup.h
