Animation in I2C OLED Display with idiotware shield
In this project, I am going to demonstrate how you can display 3d animations on an i2c oled display with the help of the idiotware shield.
Things used in this project
Hardware components
- Arduino UNO x 1
- Idiotware Shield x 1
- USB-A to B Cable x 1
- i2c Oled display x 1
Software apps and online services
- Arduino IDE
Story
Organic light-emitting diode or in short OLED display are latest display technology with wider viewing angles then the 16 * 2 LCD display that were used in back days. The i2c oled display needs only 2 wire for data and 2 for vcc and gnd ,whereas the 16*2 display 6 wires for data and other 3 wires for vcc,gnd and backlight. This reduces the pins used on arduino, thus giving us multiple things to connect .
In this tutorial I will show you how you can display or make your own 3d animation on an oled display.
You will need to download the following libraries
Configuring idIoTware Shield
