An animated e-paper display badge for Hacksters.

E-paper displays are fantastic for visual art but not fast enough for video or animation. Yet, I wanted to animate something in black and white canvas in slow motion. So, I made this badge!

Hardware
To build the hardware, two pieces of 2cmx8cm protoboards are glued side by side. Next, the XMC2Go board, LiPo battery, and 1.54-inch e-paper display are placed on the top of the protoboards.

Inter-connections are made according to the schematic (below) and soldered with soldering iron.”
