What

Create an eye-catching header banner image for the README.md — the first thing visitors see.

Why

The README currently opens with badges and a TFT demo GIF. A dedicated banner creates an immediate professional impression. It's the repo's "hero section."

⚠️ Resource constraints

This is for GitHub/Pages — no firmware impact. But the image should be well-compressed (under 300 KB) to load fast on slow connections. Remember: many visitors browse from labs and pharmacies with limited bandwidth.

Scope

Design a banner image (PNG or SVG) for the top of README.md.

What it should communicate at a glance:

• IoT temperature monitoring
• Raspberry Pi Pico W
• Touchscreen display
• Professional / lab-grade

Technical specs:

• Width: 1200–1280px
• Height: 300–400px
• Format: PNG (optimized) or SVG
• Must look good on light + dark GitHub themes
• Max file size: 300 KB

Design direction — run with whichever resonates

• A: Photo-realistic composite — Pico W + TFT showing dashboard + sensor probes
• B: Flat illustration — isometric device with temperature waves
• C: Minimal typographic — "SIMUT" bold with subtle hardware silhouette
• D: Terminal/CLI aesthetic — green-on-black with sensor data scrolling

References

• docs/images/tft-dashboard.png — current dashboard
• docs/images/tft-demo.gif — animated demo
• README.md architecture section — hardware layout

Acceptance

• Banner image submitted (PNG or SVG, 1200–1280px wide)
• README.md updated with banner at the top
• Works on light and dark GitHub themes
• Under 300 KB
