4Dsystems displays

Post by petesmart »

Hi Ben,

I recall in an earlier post that you made reference to a 4Dsystems display device. Appreciate if you could provide me with the part number/model pls. I am looking to purchase a larger display than the EB-057 and would like to ensure that it will be compatible with V5.

many thanks

Pete
sorry about that Chief!

Hi Pete,

I believe we will be supporting the entire range of displays but this is the larger touchscreen enabled display we will be using on one of the 3 upcoming 4D E-blocks.

Hi Ben,

Thanks for the info.

Just looked at the demo video,it's a really powerful little display. Will you be using the GFX or the SGC version?

Best regards

Pete

We're using the SGC variety. The GFX are stand-alone and are programmed using a scripting language program which needs to live on the SD card.

There will be 4 products based on this company's displays - 3 are displays and 1 is a VGA controller (so you can use an old monitor if you have one). And these E-blocks will be capable of accepting different display modules (not just the 3 we are selling).
