General discussion / it is time to throw your TFT LCD modules away
If you have used the TFT LCD in your project, no matter the 8/16bit parallel port LCD or the SPI serial LCD, you need a huge GUI display library in your MCU code. If there is more than 10 pages in your project, the GUI coding will be a hell job!

It's the reason why we make this new TFT LCD module with GPU. You don't need to care about the GUI coding, you can use the WYSIWYG editor to build your GUI ,and download them into the GPU memory - than you can use the MCU to send command via UART to control the TFT LCD now. All build in objet can be control by UART command.

It saves your time to code the GUI, and you don't need spend much resource of your MCU to do the display control.  Its price is nearly the same as the normal TFT LCD.




Its indigogo page here with detailed in introduce:Amazing price!! 10USD 2.4" with free shipping.....

Here is 2 blogs about using the Arduino to build the UI tutorial:

Let me know what you think about this project !

We just finished the 2.4" and 4"3 LCD, our goal is to make the size from 1.8" to 9" [1.8,2.4,2.8,3.2,4.3,5.0,7.0,9.0], and not just support resistive tp but also multi-touch capacitive tp.

We need to improve the software make it can work in MAC and linux, and build the components store for users to share and download a lot of read-made components.

General discussion / a new ARM Cortex-A8 platform in indiegogo
I have disappeared for six months on the network because of this project. Before, I used to use Arduino for most of my project, until I try the first project with RPI, and I fall in love with the Linux and this cute board, so I decide to build another one like RPI , but should more easy-to-learn and easy-to-use, so it take me half of a year to make it out - not just the hardware but also a SDK on Linux, we call this customized Ubuntu :ITEAD OS , my goal is that it will as esay-to-use as arduino  , and it will have more interface on board than RPI  , easier to connect to sensors or other modules, even the arduino shield.

Now we have the prototype, and i have put it in indiegogo , take a moment to check it out on Indiegogo and also share it with your friends. All the tools are there. Get perks, make a contribution, or simply follow updates. If enough of us get behind it, we can make 'Iteaduio Plus - ARM Cortex-A8 Dev-Platform' happen! http://http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/498035/emal/4283045

General discussion / The first OPEN PCB activity from ITead Studio
We know there are many client that using our PCB prototyping service is from dangerousprototypes here, so I think i should come here to promote our OPEN PCB activity : )

At normal when you make your prototyping PCB from us, we just send you 10 pcs of your design, now we offer this OPEN PCB activity to get 2 more PCBs at $0.1 cost. 

If your design and boards is not Privacy/Private, and it can share with other people, you can try this OPEN PCB service. We will make 12 pcs of your design/board, and ship you 10 pcs as normal , but 2 addition additional random boards - and the rest 2 boards of your design will be shipped to another guys who also purchased this service. So we give a random rely of the 2 extract boards , we don't know what you will get and if it's useful for you, but we know its designer allow sharing it with you.

It's will be a funny activity and we hope you can make some new friends by the name,email or blog in the random board you get ...If you want to join this activity, we recommended you " put a URL or something google-able on the board so the random recipient can look up what it’s supposed to do "
