Now it’s try it on a 4.0’ CYD ESP32-DIV

Not sure why I thought it was a good idea to put it on this big screen definitely has a lot of bugs. I’m gonna try my best though hopefully we can get this running perfect just like I got it running on the 2.4 inch. Wish me luck.

ESP32 CYD Ham Clock Dashboard, new pages new features and fixes

Posted this a while ago but there have been improvements since then, better quality map image, improved colours on propagation pages, added smooth scrolling to DX spots page.

Two new dashboard pages, taking the total to seven.

PSKReporter — reception reports for your callsign plotted on the world map, one marker per four-character grid, coloured by band, with a band legend and a furthest-report line.

POTA Spots — live Parks on the Air activator spots, with an optional great-circle distance filter from your locator and an option to hide automated RBN spots.

ESP32 based dashboard for OPNsense on the Cheap Yellow Display

With a lot of help from Claude I managed to put together a little dashboard for the ESP32-2432S028R Cheap Yellow Display, it collects the data from a Docker container that connects to your OPNsense box via the api, 8 pages and a web ui to change settings.

Hope you like it, full details on GitHub

Physarum on the Cheap Yellow Display

A while back I built a Physarum (slime mould) simulation in three.js, in 2D and in some non-euclidean 3D spaces: https://physarum.variable.gallery

That project grew out of some older code I still had lying around. This comment got me thinking about a web flasher, so I dug the old code out, put it on a CYD, and open sourced the lot.

My basic motivation was to make a electronic pet.

Repo: https://github.com/sha5b/CYD-Physarum
Flash it from the browser: https://cydphysarum.variable.gallery

Runs on the CYD 3.5", 2.8" and 2.4" (both R and C). One binary drives all of them. 500 agents, 240 MHz, no PSRAM.

Ported my ecosystem simulation to the CYD as a 3D Interactive Wireframe A-Life. Works flawlessly even with PSRAM disabled!

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share my latest desktop gadget project running natively on the Cheap Yellow Display.

I brought over the core game logic from my previous project and completely transformed it into a 3D wireframe world. It runs an autonomous, real-time ecological food chain (plants, herbivores, predators) with interactive touch controls.

The best part is that it is highly optimized and runs completely fine with PSRAM disabled.

If you have a CYD board, you can flash it via your browser with the Web Installer:

Feedback and suggestions are welcome!

ESP32-DIV on my 2.4’ CYD finally

Finally was able to get it to work on the 2.4 CYD which I’ve been thinking about for a while since Cifertech just had it for The 2.8, and felt the 2.4 needed some more love. Was quite a bit of work since I am still learning to code and I’m not gonna lie to get definitely got assistance lol. Almost bug free may fully build it even though I can’t solder to see if there is any other bugs or things that need to be fixed. Let me know what you think?
