Let me try to enter an Idea that I am working on quite a bit of time.:
I always wanted a EINK/Epaper Display sitting on my Desk. This Display shall show me the most important information that I need during the day.
Not only it should display informations on the EINK Display - It shall also measure the Air Quality in your room. Besides that some more stuff like Temperatures, movement detection, measures Light Conditions… and many more. And the Best of all: “It can be your own LOCAL Voice Assistant or MediaPlayer”
This Device perfectly integrates in your Smart Home (e.g. HomeAssistant or IO Broker). No permanent backlight On Display that disturbs your sleep. Just a brillant E-Ink Display with outstanding contrast and some Buttons that you can feel when you swipe over with your plam. A lightweight Design with a perfect WAF Factor. Fits on your Desktop or on your wall. The device can be programmed, adapted, hacked, tinkered and individualised by YOU. You want to push boundries even further: Use Arduino and do a deep Dive in Ultra Low Power Mode. The Battery might run for Years with an intelligent Power Gateing.
How about some more: Something like YAML, ESPHome config, Schematics, 3D step files, STL housing files, arduino programming files…You may find complete documentation here: Link here
I even think about selling my remaining boards on tindie.
Dear Copycats: Please don’t be an idiot and copy this whole thing and try to make a comercial product out of it. I invested a lot of nights in my free time after my work designing this. You know: If you copy: Bad Karma always sucks
you might have seen the pin connector for KNX: This should fit this board: NanoBCU · OpenKNX/OpenKNX Wiki · GitHub. This board might work(untested) with KNX as well
No I haven’t looked at the schematics but I heard you speak german and since I was also looking for DIY room controller in the past I though you were inspired by Jung products
In fact that Jung switch looks great.
I don’t own a 3d Printer. Thats why I designed a case that can be printed easily at once. I did not want to build a complex design with multiple steps to print. One bottom and one top. Did another case with separate buttons as well.These one did not turn out nice. Simply does not look that clean.
