Inkplate 5 programming
Inkplate 5 is a module designed for easy programming for both beginners and advanced users. It supports two popular environments - Arduino and Micropython , which provides a wide range of applications. Thanks to the ready-made Arduino library (compatible with Adafruit GFX), you can easily display texts, images and geometric shapes. MicroPython users can use a dedicated module that makes it easy to integrate and control the display. Detailed instructions on how to get started with both platforms can be found in the Inkplate documentation.
Inkplate 5 has a housing made using 3D printing technology.
easyC system in Soldered Inkplate 5
Inkplate 5 supports the easyC system, which simplifies the connection of sensors and peripheral modules . This is a solution based on I2C communication, allowing for quick and error-free connection of elements using dedicated cables. With easyC, you can expand your projects with additional functions without the need for soldering or complicated wiring.
