I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of integrating e-Ink technology into my smart home setup. Recently, I stumbled upon an interesting project that combines a Boox Go Color 7 e-Ink reader with a solar panel to create a low-power, wall-mounted smart home display. This setup uses the device’s ability to browse the internet to connect to Home Assistant, displaying real-time information such as temperature, humidity, and security status. The design includes a custom LCARS skin, giving it a sleek, futuristic look. I’m curious to hear if anyone else has explored similar projects or has tips on optimizing such setups for continuous use. The potential for such displays in smart homes is immense, offering a seamless blend of aesthetics and functionality. Let’s discuss how we can push this idea further and share our creative solutions!
