Скачать или смотреть DIY eBook Reader - Build your own Kindle using an ESP32

I've been busy playing with another ESP32 based e-Paper display. Once again we're sponsored by PCBWay - https://www.PCBWay.com/?from=atomic

There are some interesting aspects to this project:

We're using deep sleep to save on battery - check out my recent video on this subject for a deep dive:    • Mastering ESP32 Deep Sleep: Timers, G...  

We're also using an SD Card in SPI mode using a few of the spare GPIO pins on the board - we've covered this previously in this video:    • Record & Playback Audio on ESP32 SD C...  

Parsing, layout out and rendering ePub files is pretty interesting. It's a good challenge to try and get this working nicely on embedded devices like the ESP32.

If you've got an ESP32 based ePaper display then please give it a go!
