Got a nice #magnetostatic 112x16 pixel yellow-on-black #monochrome "#eInk" #monitor ;-).

Now need to find a way to drive it.

All #electronics (except frontlight inverter) ripped out.

It is a destination #display from a #Tatra #T4D-MT #tram from #Dresden.

I have nice ideas for the low level side, but the high level outside interface I find not easy to do (https://chaos.social/@dreieck/115510528206319192).

The few wrong pixels are from first experiments: Manually driving the coils.
