tft lcd editor supplier

Whether you’re using a point and shoot model or a top-of-the-line DSLR, you can count on a TFT LCD display screen to give you the photo preview and the photo itself. The technology is so effective that rarely do you need the optical viewfinder to preview your shot. It especially comes handy for self-portraits, wherein the users can invert the lens to look at their selfies.

Everybody expects the subject of their photos to appear as they are in real life. So apart from the viewfinder, the preview screen needs to reflect that. TFT LCD screens can show up to 16.7 million colors, so imagine how accurate they can be!

The technology of TFT can allow the photographer to make last-minute composition changes to their photos. There’s still time for a change of tux or an extra flower in the shot, thanks to LCD previews. Can you imagine how good it is to get the ideal shot, with little need for photo-editing later on? Such is the convenience TFT gives.

TFT LCD offers a quality resolution at any screen size. When you’re taking a picture using a TFT LCD module camera, you lock in every detail — contrast, light, and expression — in your resulting photo. This is because of TFT’s in-plane switching (IPS) technology, which improves on basic LCD’s color and angle display. Photographers value accuracy above all, and TFT’s IPS does the trick for them.

Besides being cheaper than OLED technology, TFT LCD still allows for less energy consumption, as well as quicker responsiveness. Photographers value long battery life and camera response time, especially when covering personal events and news beats. The efficiency of TFT ensures that they’ll capture more memories and tell the full story.

Nextion is a Seamless Human Machine Interface (HMI) solution that provides a control and visualisation interface between a human and a process, machine, application or appliance. Nextion is mainly applied to IoT or consumer electronics field. It is the best solution to replace the traditional LCD and LED Nixie tube. Available from 2.4″ to 7″ models, Nextion provides an analog touch screen operator interface with programmable function buttons, gauges, progress bars…etc., Nextion is an interface solution designed to complement your application needs.

Nextion TFT display uses only one serial port to do communication which helps users get rid of the wiring trouble. We notice that most engineers spend a lot of time in application development but get unsatisfactory results. In this case, Nextion editor has provided mass components, such as button, text, progress bar, slider, instrument panel etc. to enrich your interface design. And the drag-and-drop function ensures that users will spend less time in programming, which will reduce your 99% development workloads. With the help of this WYSIWYG editor, GUI designing is a piece of cake.

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.
