Custom Displays

Embedded Display Solutions

Purpose-built display systems for solar monitoring, industrial data visualisation, and long-running embedded applications.

Capabilities

Any Size

From tiny status indicators to full OLED and eInk panels — matched to your use case and environment.

Always On

Designed for long-running, unattended operation with automatic logging and ultra-low power consumption.

Interactive

Touch input and scroll navigation on embedded displays — real controls, not just a read-only screen.

A battery-powered colour e-paper dashboard — site readings, battery states, and a calendar, running for months on a charge

A wall-or-bench dashboard on 800×480 colour e-paper (E Ink Spectra 6, ESP32-S3). It renders typed pages — a home summary, calendar, power, battery — each tile stamped with its data age, and the whole unit is provisioned from a phone: an unconfigured panel comes up as its own access point with a QR code to join it.

E-paper costs nothing between refreshes, so at a 90-minute update cadence the panel runs about three months per charge — the display budget becomes how often you draw, not how fast.

Resilient Networking

Knows up to four WiFi networks and joins the strongest in range, with primary and fallback REST data endpoints and on-screen health indication — the footer shows which source drew the screen.

Months Per Charge

The picture stays on the glass with the power off. Wake, fetch, draw, sleep — around three months on a cell at 90-minute refreshes, with its own battery state in the footer.

Sensors Onboard

Reports its own temperature, humidity, and battery voltage alongside the data it displays — the panel is a sensor node in the room as well as a window into the site.

Built for the OGLAS off-grid monitoring platform.
