Project: Developing an E-Paper Dashboard with Arduino and the reTerminal E1001 (Step-by-Step Guide)

Thanks to the good reception of the previous post, where I described my project of an e-ink dashboard to visualize events and weather using the E1001 terminal from SeeedStudio, in this guide, I will explain step-by-step how to flash your own customized terminal. Additionally, I'll leave a few links in case you haven't acquired the terminal yet.

Project: Developing an E-Paper Dashboard with Arduino and the reTerminal E1001

I've always wanted a device at home for a long time that would let me see at a glance, every morning while I have my coffee, what I need: the weather, my upcoming events, and some sensor data. I tried several solutions until I discovered a device that was perfect for this purpose. It saved me a lot of time in hardware development and was fully customizable to suit my needs. I'd like to share the development of my small project using the reTerminal E1001 e-paper display hardware from Seeed Studio. In this post, I will discuss the display's hardware, how I used the Arduino IDE to program it, the architectural schematic I followed, and the tools I used for the graphical design. I…
