Hi, Iām Lewis and this is DIY Machines. The channel where I show you step-by-step how to make awesome projects. Todays projects are these colour e-ink paper display digital dashboardās.
They are customisable to show different data at different times of the day. So you can see your calendar when you wake up, followed by the weather when youāre choosing your outfit for the day ahead, catch up on the news when you get home and then enjoy the charm and nostalgic photos of your family and friends in the evenings.
There is an ever-growing catalogue of plugins such as GitHub stats, NASA imagery, weather reports and moreā¦ thanks to the amazing open source InkyPi software running on the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W.

I love the colour e-paper display on this project as unlike a traditional screen it does not emit any of itās own light and instead only reflects natural light just like a kindle screen - but in colour. This is far less distracting and elegantly hides the technology inside behind what looks a printed image in a wooden Ikea frame.
You can also 3D print everything if you donāt want to use a wooden frame, Iāve put up a few ready-to-print designs for you to choose from and youāll find the Fusion360 file available to download and create your own frame designs with as well.
I hope to add a few more designs online shortly and encourage other makers to share what they create as well.
