2.9inch Flexible E-Paper Display Module for Raspberry Pi Pico (Black/White) (296??128)

Looking for a small, flexible eInk / ePaper display for yourRaspberry Pi Pico? Look no further than this 5.83″Black/WhiteeInk/ePaper display from Waveshare. It’s ideal for adding a low-power E-Ink display to your next Pi Pico project. Featuring a flexible screen with a resolution of 648×480 pixels, this E-Ink display utilizes a short ribbon cable and driver board to move the Raspberry Pi Pico off of the back, allowing for a more low-profile footprint and easier integration into your next project.

ePaper / eInk displays are designed to replicate the appearance of ink on paper. Unlike regular displays, which lose their image when power is removed, eInk screens are able to hold text and images indefinitely, even without power. ePaper screens are therefore ultra low power, designed to have a wide viewing angle, and additionally have limited reflection under sunlight. The applications are limitless!
