I'm building an electric scooter. I managed to make a nice interface using qml that works fine inside vesc tool. Now i want to wire on an external touch screen for that UI, but have no idea how to do that. What interface do i need (i2c / uart / other)? Do i need an additional microcontroler like an arduino? Any advice would be greatly apprciated!
You could compile VESC-Tool for/on a Raspberry PI Zero and use USB for a permanent connection. Attach the screen to the PI....
Sounds a bit hacky, but should work. Thanks for the idea
That is how we do it on our GoKart. The beauty is the super fast update rate..... And fast logging to the SD card.
