reTerminal E1001/E1002 – ESP32-S3-powered monochrome/color ePaper displays for dashboards, digital signage

Seeed Studio's reTerminal E1001 and E1002 are two ePaper displays featuring an ESP32-S3 WiFi and Bluetooth LE wireless microcontroller suitable for dashboards or digital signage applications. The only difference between the two reTerminal E-series displays is that the E1001 features a 7.5-inch monochrome display, while the E1002 integrates a 7.3-inch 6-color ePaper display. Both come with a 2,000 mAh battery offering up to 3 months of battery life, a 32MB SPI flash, a microSD card slot, a microphone and a buzzer, temperature and humidity sensors, an 8-pin GPIO header, and a few buttons and LEDs. reTerminal E1001/E1002 specifications: Wireless SoC - Espressif Systems ESP32-S3 dual-core microcontroller with 8MB PSRAM Storage 32MB SPI flash MicroSD card slot up to 32GB (FAT32 file system only) Display E1001 - 7.5-inch Monochrome ePaper display with 800x480 resolution E1002 - 7.3-inch "Full Color" (i.e., 6-color) ePaper display with 800x480 resolution Audio Microphone (3) for voice

@gehrke_test I bought one and like it. This is my first #ColorEpaper
My Seeed Experience is alpha, IMHO.
I am planning to get it working locally to be free from online services. #Arduino and #PlatformIO are my friends helping to get there.
@dassascha @gehrke_test I need a similar device, but capable of running Linux, and not too expensive.
@bonkers @gehrke_test Sorry, I don't know about such devices. All I have seen is microcontroller stuff you have to develop C for.

@dassascha @gehrke_test I have one, but it's rather bulky. But cheap :)

@dassascha @gehrke_test there's quite a lot of free space inside, but they didn't leave any headers to attach to. An internal USB interface would be a great plus.

@dassascha @gehrke_test nice, but for my project, I need a full USB host, keyboard, mouse and joystick drivers, and a display driver, and remote control via OpenVPN, so basically, a Linux machine :)
