Like Inky pHAT, the display is crisp and readable in bright sunlight.<\/p>\n<p>Use Inky wHAT as a detailed weather display, as a calendar, for daily news reports, to list household chores, or you could even use it as a tiny DIY e-reader to read your e-books.<\/p>\n<h2>Features<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>4.2&#8243; EPD display (400&#215;300 pixels)<\/li>\n<li>40-pin female header included to boost height for\u00a0full-size Pis<\/li>\n<li>Standoffs included to securely attach to your Pi<\/li>\n<li>Additional pins, including I2C and SPI, broken out<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/pinout.xyz\/pinout\/inky_phat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Inky wHAT pinout<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Compatible with all 40-pin header Raspberry Pi models<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/pimoroni\/inky\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Python library<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Comes fully assembled<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Multi-colour EPD displays, like the one on Inky wHAT, use ingenious electrophoresis to pull coloured particles up and down on the display. The coloured particles reflect light, unlike most display types, meaning that they&#8217;re visible under bright lights.\u00a0It takes approximately 25 seconds to refresh the display.<\/p>\n<p>Everything comes fully-assembled, and there&#8217;s no soldering required! The display is securely stuck down to the Inky wHAT PCB and connected via a ribbon cable. Just pop Inky wHAT on your Pi and run our installer to get everything set up!<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve also broken out some handy pins including I2C and SPI, on the back of Inky wHAT, letting you connect additional devices like breakouts\u00a0and allowing you to show\u00a0their data right on the display.<\/p>\n<p>Inky wHAT\u00a0work with any 40-pin version of the Pi, including Pi Zero and Pi Zero W.<\/p>\n<h2>Software<\/h2>\n<p>Our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/pimoroni\/inky\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Python library<\/a>\u00a0takes the stress out of displaying text and images on Inky wHAT, and we&#8217;ve put together a few examples to show off Inky wHAT&#8217;s capabilities. We&#8217;ve put together a one-line-installer for the Python library too, to make installation a little more straightforward.<\/p>\n<h2>Notes<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Pro-tip:\u00a0you can treat\u00a0the three-colour displays as black and white &#8211;\u00a0<code>InkyPHAT(\"black\")<\/code>\u00a0&#8211;\u00a0and they&#8217;ll refresh as quickly as a black and white display, in just a couple of seconds<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Inky wHAT display is made from glass so it&#8217;s pretty fragile.
