[SensorPanel monitor options]

Thank you for the detailed response!

I recently purchased an affordable tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab A) and I am thinking of using this as a starting point and to get to know the capabilities/customization options of SensorPanel.

As soon as I feel comfortable with it, I will probably get one of those dedicated displays that you mention.

I am concerned that having the tablet constantly on power will damage its battery life, so I would only consider it a permanent solution if it was an old (retired) one.  

[SensorPanel monitor options]

Dear all,

I am trying to figure out the best option for a small (max 7'') external screen to use with SensorPanel.

I find lots of options on eBay that I suppose are all viable (e.g., https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/7inch-HDMI-LCD-H-with-case-1024x600-IPS-Capacitive-Touch-Screen-Audio-Output/133067577890).

 

What I am unsure at the moment:

- Is the quality/resolution of the screen important?

- Is touch input needed/used?

- Is there any difference (limitations) between the three available options (using an HDMI connected screen, a USB connected one and/or an affordable Android tablet)? 

 

Any input would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!

 

Best,

S
