Sensor display on a TFT Touchscreen

By kaydub
July 27, 2011
Here’s a demo of data from the SensorPacks being displayed on a TFT Touchscreen/shield I picked up from Adafruit. Writing a simple UI via graphics primitives reminded me of building UI’s back in the day, where all you have are lines, circles, and x/y coordinates to play with. There wasn’t a lot of data space left over to build functionality, but I managed to get a quick-and-dirty analog clock, as well as the ability to store data for 4 individual SensorPacks. The XBee listens for data, and when it recognizes a packet from a SensorPack, it either updates the entry, or adds it to the list.
I ended up with about 200 bytes of storage left, after porting and streamlining my sensor reading code from the other displays I built, so adding more functionality will require a bit of code rework, but I’m pretty happy with this so far. Will likely add gauges, and the ability to show history at some point.
