We've seen transparent displays in several Si-Fi movies and we as electronics enthusiasts curious to use transparent displays finally DF Robot launched Fermion 1.51” OLED Transparent Display module. DFRobot Fermion is a 1.51-inch transparent OLED display with 128-64 resolution that is linked to the host MCU through SPI or GDI (General Display Protocol) interface. It is an amazing transparent display I've ever seen.
Introduction - Fermion 1.51” OLED Transparent Display
There are two ways to connect the display to a development board: a flat cable with a GDI connection to a board such as the DFRobot Firebeetle ESP32-E board with a specific connector to connect external displays, or a flat cable with a GDI connection to a board such as the DFRobot Firebeetle ESP32-E board with a specific connector to connect external displays.
