MusicDisplay

A TFT touch screen music display that changes over bluetooth. Displays the current music playing and time.

Description

The reason I wanted to build this is because, often when I listen to music while studying. If i ever want to change the music or adjust the volume, I get distracted looking at my phone. I also don't have headphones which can switch the music from itself. So I wanted something where I can control the music and look at time and only important stuff, but I can't get distracted from something else.

Features

  • 3D Printed Case (TODO)
  • TFT LCD Touch Screen for controls
  • Interact with spotify over bluetooth
  • EC11 Rorary Encoder for controlling volume
  • USB-C connection for

PCB

Custom PCB made in KiCad. Footprint for the ESP32 was built entirely by claude.

Firmware

There is custom firmware for showing the current song, title, and artist. It shows the app name being used (ie. spotify) and time. Allows you to play and pause. It also shows the album picture and volume bar. It uses the knob to change the volumel, mute and unmute, and update the brightness of the screen.

Questions

How big is the MusicDisplayWeek PCB?

It measures 95 × 62 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the MusicDisplayWeek use?

5 parts. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the MusicDisplayWeek KiCad files?

From the anvaymathur/MusicDisplay repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCad/MusicDisplayWeek.kicad_pcb and its schematic KiCad/MusicDisplayWeek.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the MusicDisplayWeek design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask anvaymathur before reusing the design.
