I am building a custom retro E-Ink digital camera from scratch!

The project features:

  • Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32-S3 Sense for image capture.
  • 3.7” Waveshare monochrome E-Ink display.
  • Custom PCB designed in KiCad with integrated power routing, mode selection, and status LED.
  • Physical 16mm metallic shutter button for a vintage tactile feel.
  • Real-time hardware mode switch to toggle between dithering algorithms (Floyd-Steinberg for smooth gradients and Atkinson for a classic Game Boy Camera look).
  • Built-in LiPo battery with USB-C charging.
  • Custom 2-piece 3D-printed enclosure engineered for a precise, compact fit.

nice work on this project! right now there isnt a lot of info in the README.md about the project, please add some more info, without the use of AI! Additionally, you dont have a BOM.csv in your repo! please add one!

Hey there, really cool project idea! This is quite simple - do you think you could break out your own camera instead of relying on the SENSE? Additionally, please make a BOM.csv file with links of where your purchases are coming from, and please get your case from #printing-legion in the Slack, not JLCPCB! :D

hi there! this is a super cool project

that being said, you should definitely polish your project more to match the parts!

i think it would be super cool to have a resin case but the rest of the design needs to match. A complete CAD, some renders, etc!

Nice work on this project!! Id like to see you rewrite the readme for this without the use of AI. since humans are reading this, a human should be writing it!! Resubmit when you are done!
