Abstract

All our circuits thus far have been built without using any displays. We can get feedback on our sensor data using things such as an LED or a buzzer, but to really visualize sensor data, we need a display. While the serial console we have been using so far is a good method to visualize information, you need to have your MCU connected to your computer to get any information from it. Most embedded systems though (calculators, watches, and the like) have a display that is used to give information to the user. In this section, we lay the foundations for making these types of devices by learning about displays.
