Span Graphics Across Displays with ESP32 and Adaftuit GFX

Discover how to transform your small SPI displays into a unified, expansive canvas with this innovative Arduino library.
This tutorial guides you through the simple yet powerful process of spanning Adafruit GFX graphics functions across multiple screens, making it easier than ever to create dynamic visual projects. From setting up your displays to wiring and coding, we cover everything you need to know to get started.
Dive into the examples, including the 'Game of Life', mazes, and classic games like Tetris and Pong, all beautifully rendered across your screens without the hassle of managing them in code.
Your creativity is the limit-explore, experiment, and expand your display capabilities today.

Looks really good and very useful. I will check it out, cheers Tony

[@atomic14]

Nice! This is something I have to try.

[@paulz8750]

Wow.
Really appreciate your hard work & for sharing it.

[@user-cj3gc3gi7m]

Amazing project! ❤ it

[@ChrisHalden007]

Impressive. Good job 👍👍

[@Sagar-kn1bz]

Great! Thanks for sharing

[@kennethbeal]

Thank you, that's a great abstraction! I wonder if "edgeless" smaller screens might be made, so that a "monitor of any size" could be made from them? Not that it'd likely be cost-effective; more, as a learning tool. Thanks again!

The 240x240 ST7789 that I use in the video have the screen glued to the PCB, it's quite easy to unglue so that you have almost no edge

[@LowerDeckProps]

Great video, Charles. You are giving me more ideas for Star Wars displays. Would this library be compatible with playing animated GIFs across multiple displays, with the ESP32, like you showed in your earlier videos?

[@thelastoutpostworkshop]

Thanks, no it won’t support animated
Gif

[@user-jk9lg4fg4e]

Is this something that could be used with XIAO RP2040 microcontroller?

[@thelastoutpostworkshop]

Yes it should work if you use the Arduino Framework with Adafruit GFX. The XIAO RP2040 has SPI, so you can use a 16 bit display which is supported by the library.

[@DeeGeeDeFi]

Does the library support 1306 (128x64) screens?

[@thelastoutpostworkshop]

Yes, If it is supported by the TFT_eSPI Library
