Smart Alarmclock II

smartalarmclock

The TFT screen was never completely black. This annoyed me. Nanomesher Prodboard contains an oledscreen and buttons. This was my new choice, because oled is black and buttons can replace the touchscreen.

The support pages of Nanomesher pointed me towards the settings of the oled screen and how to handle this in python. I found it useful to play with contrast. A low setting during the night. And a high setting during the day ensures that i can read the time pleasantly at all times. I also chose a font that is made up of thin lines. Font Arenq.

So now i have a alarmclock behaving like any normal alarmclock. Not really smart anymore, because the setting of a playlist is no longer configurable via the screen. The smart now lies in the fact that on the same raspberry other batchprocesses can run as well.
