Review of the Adafruit Monochrome 128×32 OLED Graphic Display
Plastibots.com spent some time with our Monochrome 128×32 OLED Graphic Display, and shared some thoughts on it. He plans on using it on a red light camera tracking device, but the review mainly goes into the basics of the display.
I recently got my hands on the Adafruit Monochrome 128×32 OLED graphic display for my next project. This is a 128×32 OLED B+W graphics chip and it’s tiny! Don’t let its size fool you however. Being an OLED display, text/graphics contrasts well against the black background.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.

I also recognized the coordinates on his display, he’s not far from my own location hehe. I’m working on a wearable project using the 128×64 version! http://planetstephanie.net/2012/05/04/sneak-peak/
Cool little project and a nice review too!
