“Use it as a Name badge when volunteering with a sensory sports group for people with learning disabilities.
Another thing for name and colour interaction with participants.”
“My Tufty is one of my best purchases. I so love the nice big Color LCD. Nice resolution too. The QWICC Connector comes in handy, for me anyway. Lots of buttons too.”
“Amazing bit of kit! SO much more than a badge, its the easiest way to get up and running with a microcontroler, yet versatile enough for all needs. I'm currently using mine as a little companion device for at work. I had little experience in python, but had never even dabbled with a Raspberry Pi or Pi Pico before this and my Badger2040w. Just through reading Pimoronis excellent documentation, I have learned so much in such a short time. Can't recommend enough!”
“Demo worked on power up. Pretty straight forward to geneate new code doing cut & paste from examples. I feed the raw data in via the UART pins on the edge connector provided but had to go to the schematic to get the GPIO pins used. The display itself is bright & sharp and with the examples & documentation can only be a 5 star rating.(A case STL file is available on Thingverse for 3D printing too.)”
“This is a neat little gadget for sure. I was really new to programming (Micropython) when I bought this. I kept running out of memory when having it try and load an image. With the help of some clever folks on the forums I was able to get it to display any image in full resolution and not run out of memory and continue to work and have the buttons do whatever I wanted them to do.
I had another one but I accidentally broke off the USB connector, and my soldering skills were not that great at the time and I just ended up making a hot mess (literally!) so that one is 'stuck' with whatever code is on it. The LCD still works. Maybe I should try and take it apart and steal the screen and connect it with a ribbon cable? Hmm? Curious now...where is that thing anyways!? :)
Cheers”
