Waveshare 5.79" E-Paper (B) Raw Display, E-Ink, 792x272, Red/Black/White, SPI Communication
Mimics traditional paper effect
Supports red, black, white colors
Operates with SPI communication
Maintains content without power
Facilitates wide integration platforms
The Waveshare 5.79" E-Paper (B) Raw Display, E-Ink, 792x272, Red/Black/White, SPI Communication offers a sophisticated display solution characterized by its low power consumption and wide viewing angle. This e-paper display is designed to mimic the appearance of traditional paper, providing a paper-like effect without the need for electricity. It is particularly suitable for applications such as price tags, shelf labels, and industrial instruments.
This display features a resolution of 792x272 pixels and supports three colors: red, black, and white. It operates using SPI communication and requires ambient light to function, as it is passively reflective and does not include a backlight. The display maintains the last content shown even when powered down, making it highly energy-efficient, with power primarily needed only during content refreshing.
The e-paper technology employed in this display utilizes microcapsule electrophoretic technology, which allows for clear visibility under both lamplight and natural light. This technology ensures a viewing angle of nearly 180 degrees, making it ideal for e-reader applications. The display is compatible with development resources and manuals for platforms such as Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino, and STM32, facilitating integration into various projects.

No backlight; retains last content display even when powered down
Ultra-low power consumption; power needed primarily for refreshing
Includes online development resources and manual (examples for Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, Arduino, STM32)
Operating Voltage: 3.3V
Interface: 3-wire SPI, 4-wire SPI
Full Refresh Time: 24 seconds
Refresh Power: Less than 50mW
Dot Pitch: 0.1755 × 0.1755mm

Advantages of EINK: Utilizes microcapsule electrophoretic technology; charged particles in clear fluid move to microcapsule sides when an electric field is applied, making the microcapsule visible by reflecting ambient light, similar to traditional printed paper. Displays images/texts clearly under lamplight or natural light, requires no backlight, and offers nearly 180° viewing angle. Commonly used as an e-reader due to its paper-like effect

The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
Consumables — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tires, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odor-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
Build-it-yourself products and items requiring customer assembly — Including robots & kits, robot parts, and other products requiring assembly or soldering. Not eligible for return once assembled, soldered, or installed.
Digital Goods, Software, and Apps — Final sale only, due to licensing restrictions.
Clearance Items — Products identified as clearance or final sale, including end-of-life or discontinued items.
Custom-made, personalized, or special-order items — Products manufactured, configured, adapted, or built to the customer's own specifications and requirements.
On-Demand Items — Standard catalogue products not stocked by RobotShop and ordered specifically to fulfill a customer request.
While the same return policy applies, these orders require a separate contact process for returns.
