Introduction

The aim of the RaspEink project is to drive a small e-Paper display with a Raspberry Pi. While such a display could serve many purposes (status reports, weather station etc.) it will be used in this project to complete an existing home automation system, namely to display current temperature in all rooms and the status of the heating system.

Hardware

Software

  • Raspian linux from official source
  • FHEM home automation software
  • Perl, required to run FHEM
  • Python for the interface between FHEM and the display
  • WiringPi for easy hardware programming
