Having an easy-to-use (YMMV) eInk display library in Elixir makes a whole slew of useful lab&amp;#x2F;tinker equipment feasible! Shoutout to @lawik for taking the effort to port inky over. It&amp;#x27;s fairly tedious to work with all the SPI and image buffer tweaks.&lt;p&gt;eInk&amp;#x27;s have nice readability for &amp;quot;around the lab&amp;quot; type equipment. Having a nice Nerves compatible wrapper lowers that barrier of entry even more. Sure you can do it with Python and a RPi Zero and perhaps some Ansible scripts or PiBakery, but there&amp;#x27;s something great about being able to make a custom (e.g. &amp;lt; 50 MB) embedded Linux sd-card image with proper SSH network&amp;#x2F;credentialing, all in around as long as it takes to download a full Raspbian distro on a busy network... I am planning on building a custom weighing station for simple chemical titration next week and have a nice unused eInk display sitting around.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Running an eInk Display with Elixir, Scenic and Nerves</title><url>http://underjord.io/an-eink-display-with-nerves-elixir.html</url></story>

I might try to dink around with a raspberry pi and a few eink displays to see how hard it would be to make a budget one.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Running an eInk Display with Elixir, Scenic and Nerves</title><url>http://underjord.io/an-eink-display-with-nerves-elixir.html</url></story>
