In this tutorial, you will learn how to use and set up 2.4″ Touch LCD Shield for Arduino. First, you’ll see some general information about this shield. And after learning how to set the shield up, you’ll see 3 practical projects.
The role of screens in electronic projects is very important. Screens can be of very simple types such as 7 Segment or character LCDs or more advanced models like OLEDs and TFT LCDs.
One of the most important features of this LCD is including a touch panel. If you are about to use the LCD, you need to know the coordinates of the point you touch. To do so, you should upload the following code on your Arduino board and open the serial monitor. Then touch your desired location and write the coordinates displayed on the serial monitor. You can use this coordination in any other project.
To display pictures on this LCD you should save the picture in 24bit BMP colored format and size of 240*320. Then move them to SD card and put the SD card in the LCD shield. we use the following function to display pictures. This function has 3 arguments; the first one stands for the pictures name, and the second and third arguments are for length and width coordinates of the top left corner of the picture.
In this Arduino touch screen tutorial we will learn how to use TFT LCD Touch Screen with Arduino. You can watch the following video or read the written tutorial below.
As an example I am using a 3.2” TFT Touch Screen in a combination with a TFT LCD Arduino Mega Shield. We need a shield because the TFT Touch screen works at 3.3V and the Arduino Mega outputs are 5 V. For the first example I have the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, then for the second example an RGB LED with three resistors and a push button for the game example. Also I had to make a custom made pin header like this, by soldering pin headers and bend on of them so I could insert them in between the Arduino Board and the TFT Shield.
Here’s the circuit schematic. We will use the GND pin, the digital pins from 8 to 13, as well as the pin number 14. As the 5V pins are already used by the TFT Screen I will use the pin number 13 as VCC, by setting it right away high in the setup section of code.
I will use the UTFT and URTouch libraries made by Henning Karlsen. Here I would like to say thanks to him for the incredible work he has done. The libraries enable really easy use of the TFT Screens, and they work with many different TFT screens sizes, shields and controllers. You can download these libraries from his website, RinkyDinkElectronics.com and also find a lot of demo examples and detailed documentation of how to use them.
After we include the libraries we need to create UTFT and URTouch objects. The parameters of these objects depends on the model of the TFT Screen and Shield and these details can be also found in the documentation of the libraries.
So now I will explain how we can make the home screen of the program. With the setBackColor() function we need to set the background color of the text, black one in our case. Then we need to set the color to white, set the big font and using the print() function, we will print the string “Arduino TFT Tutorial” at the center of the screen and 10 pixels down the Y – Axis of the screen. Next we will set the color to red and draw the red line below the text. After that we need to set the color back to white, and print the two other strings, “by HowToMechatronics.com” using the small font and “Select Example” using the big font.
The LCD business card has a 2.4″ LCD TFT lens with a resolution of 320×272 pixels. The screen ratio is 4:3, which means your video should be shot or edited to the same aspect ratio to get the best results.
The vast majority of video footage is shot using an aspect ratio of 16:9. If we try and install this to the device, you are in effect trying to squeeze an oblong into a square, and the results are that a black bar will display at the top and bottom of the screen. Because the LCD business card’s screen is only 2.4-inches across the diagonal plane, this makes a small screen even smaller! So, for best results, make sure your video is edited to, or shot, in a 4:3 aspect ratio.
As with all video brochures, the video content of the LCD business card can be removed and replaced; however, because of the unusual aspect ratio, it needs to be run through a converting process using a piece of freeware, available here to download. If you are already a customer and are having problems converting your file, we will do this for you as part of our customer support guarantee. All you have to do is upload your artwork file to our free WeTransfer account, and within 24 hours, we will have to file back to you, ready to install, using the USB cable provided.
The 2.4″ business card is one of our best selling video brochures. It has been used for both consumer marketing in the promotions sector and as a business presentation in the B2B arena, delivering a perfect elevator pitch – every time.
Selling to large organizations can be a complicated process with a large number of decision-makers and stakeholders holders in the approval process. Having your sales personnel initiate 1-2-1 presentations with each influencer in the buying cycle is unrealistic, and relying on an internal advocate to accurately position your business and solution, unreliable; this is when the LCD business card can come into its own.
The 2.4- inch LCD business card is small, compact. It plays instantly upon opening, meaning the recipient has a compelling elevator pitch, which they can use for reference and show their co-workers when questions arise regarding your product or service offering.
If you would like to receive a sample of the LCD video brochure, you can order one free of charge here, alternatively, speak to one of our account personnel, schedule a call, or email us.
