This is an implementation of access to the Turing Smart Screen as a Python library. It is a complete reimplementation from scratch using none of the code from the original library at https://github.com/mathoudebine/turing-smart-screen-python but under MIT license. Some of the methods are similar, because there's only so many ways you can control these screens, and it's useful to be compatible.
The library is Python 2/3 compatible, as this is required for the project it is to be integrated with.
The interface is through object construction and method operations, to allow it to be multiply instantiated and to allow us to inherit behaviour for each of the implementations.
from PIL import Image
import serial
ser = serial(DEVICE, 115200, timeout=1, rtscts=1)
display = TuringDisplayAutoSelect(ser)
# Hide everything
display.enable(False)
# If the display is rotated around 180 degrees, it image may been inversion
display.invert(display.INVERT_XY)
# Draw a picture in the display
image = Image.open(bitmap_path)
display.update_region_pillow(0, 0, image)
# And show it in one go
display.enable(True)
This library is released under the MIT license. The original was under the restrictive GPL, which precludes my incorporating it into my projects, so I have re-implemented the functions and made the system more object oriented.
See [LICENSE] for details.
