Built a Small E-Ink Tracker for Podcast Data #27

SpencerWF started this conversation in Show and tell

Using a Raspberry Pi Zero, and E-Ink display and the OP3 API I built a small tracker that updates me every day of the downloads, and a comparison between the last 3 weeks of downloads.

Sparkle Print

I used 6 triangles to represent the last 3 weeks of downloads. The triangles are paired up where the coloured(Red or Yellow) triangle represents the total downloads of a given week, and the white triangle represents the downloads for the latest episode. The left most coloured and white triangle represents the 3 weeks ago, the middle triangles are 2 weeks ago and are used as a reference for the other triangles, they shouldn't change in size, the right most triangles represent the last 7 days. If a new episode was released this week then it will be the only week with a white triangle.

Looks great!

What does the $ value represent? Is this V4V or ad revenue or something else?

I also track a small Crypto investment on the same screen, not really relevant for OP3, but basically done the same way. Could definitely be used to track ad revenue or similar.

So cool!

Do you have it mounted on a wall or desk somewhere?

Hey, thanks so much!

Currently it just sits on a table for me, but I'm thinking about re-writing the code with an embedded device (for lower battery draw), hooking it up to Lipo battery and mounting it somewhere.
