Expanding to Arduino and other platforms

Then what’s then solution for touch screens?

the problem is not the touch screen, it’s the memory required for screen real-estate. What arduino touch screen can you show us and we can tell you how you might use it - but you need a device with way more memory to run larger screens, so the answer would most likely be just use a Gadgeteer mainboard that supports this natively.

Easy! 4DSystems have a nice system for adding LCD to almost any processor.

This guys has plenty of LCDs af all kinds, including serial ones. I’ve bought many times from him. Great prices, but shipping may be slow, though…

Dave did anybody try it with gadgeteer, any code examples somewhere, this one sound very interesting

That is one nice display for an Arduino. Did not realize such a thing existed.

You’re over engineering this by introducing Medusa into the fray. As others have suggested, go with a gadgeteer mainboard that is designed for touch, or add this display to an Arduino directly.

The Medusa line of hardware was designed to act as a bridge between Arduinos and (only some of the) Gadgeteer modules. It was NOT designed to run gadgeteer displays on an Arduino.

The board for touch is in different price category + it was interesting to have it in Medusa
