## Description

Add a large, vibrant tri-colour eInk display to your Arduino project with this shield. The 2.7" panel displays red, black, and white pixels at 264×176 resolution that remain visible even with power completely disconnected. The shield form factor plugs directly onto Arduino-compatible boards from the ATmega328 up to the ATSAMD51. Four user buttons (A, B, C, D) on the front face share a single analogue pin (A3), giving you menu navigation and input without using extra GPIO. An onboard SRAM chip handles frame buffering, and a MicroSD socket provides storage for images and text files.
