I finished implementing SDL โframebufferโ objects which display a screen sized OpenGL texture. Framebuffer support is primarily for debugging, but also can be used
โ
with small โgadgetโ displays, like Pimoroni's Display Hat Mini, ePaper displays, also available from Pimoroni or from Waveshare, which I used to prototype a Raspberry
โฐ
Pi based e-Reader.

Super excited to explore colorimetry with two breakout boards from Adafruit, one sporting an XYZ sensor and the other detecting 8 bands in the visible spectrum with
๐
โ
an additional near infra-red band and another broad spectrum (white light) sensor. They power up and found by i2cdetect on my Raspberry Pi and it's time to start
๐ฆ
โ
poking around the sample code to get them up and running.

The Pimoroni Inky Impression 13.3" is beautiful! e-Paper has a long way to go in terms of color gamut, precision and refresh times, but the reflective surface makes
โฐ
e-Paper feel more natural and โin the worldโ than emissive displays.
