 Full sized 80s Pinball Display Joy for the Arduino. A fully controllable big 16 x 2 Alphanumeric display shield board with library[/align:1po3qf7g] Have you ever wanted to add some arcade feeling to your arudino project, or wanted to add retro displays but haven't been able to find an off the shelf product with a large enough segment or wide enough display? I know i've asked this question many times, so I decided it was time to take my years of Pinball software and hardware knowledge and create the first BIG 80s arcade display shield for arduino.

Hi,

I'm running a kickstarter project for a full sized 16x2 alphanumeric display arduino shield that you can add to your custom projects (pinball or other arcade inspired coolness). An open source library for controlling it will also be released as part of a successful campaign. It has serial in for connecting up to other systems and is i2c based

Please see below if you'd like to know more!

I'm into the final few days of the campaign am looking for backers and like minded people to join in the adventure and help make take the project into production.

Thanks
