We have Gameduino 3X 7"!

The GD3X 7" is back in stock. It is the larger GD3X, with a touch panel about the size of a mini tablet.

These will ship same day - so US buyers will get them in 1-3 days. Shipping is free from the Excamera Labs Store. UK-based distributor Cool Components also carries them.

Here are a couple of photos that I took of it for the Amazon listing:


People sometimes ask about the difference between the EVE and other graphic controllers. This seems like an ideal place to answer:

• Does the 800x480 screen need a more powerful MCU to run it? No, the screen size is independent of the MCU, because EVE's hardware does all the pixel work. An Arduino easily drives very complex screens. A 32-bit MCU (like Teensy) can do even more.
• How do I control EVE's hardware? The hardware's native language is a 2D subset of classic OpenGL. A lot of the drawing operations are OpenGL-like. The Gameduino library most mostly just carries commands to the hardware.
• How do I put an image on the screen? The hardware loads JPG and PNG files directly - you just feed the image file to the EVE and it loads it as a bitmap.
• I just want some buttons and a dial? EVE hardware includes commands to draw UI elements (buttons, dials, labels, etc), the hardware includes multiple fonts. You can make a simple UI in a couple of minutes.

Thanks for reading.
