Description

This is a shield equipped with a beautiful large touchscreen display shield with built in microSD card connection, designed to fit on an Arduino Uno (or Mega) to make human machine interactive projects. This TFT display has big (2.4? diagonal) bright (4 white-LED backlight) and colorful (18-bit 262,000 different shades), 240?320 pixels with individual pixel control. It has way more resolution than monochrome 128?64 pixel display. As a bonus, this display has a resistive touchscreen attached to it already, so you can detect finger presses anywhere on the screen.
