Yes, although it hasn't yet (to my knowledge) been done, and it would probably involve some (straightforward) programming. The Peggy 2 boards tile side-to-side seamlessly so that they can make an extended display. There is an onboard I2C interface-- a type of multipoint serial port --that can be used to send data to multiple Peggy 2 boards, from an appropriate controller-- either one of the boards dedicated as master, or (for example) an external Arduino used as a serial-TWI converter.

>. I'm interested in doing that (and do have *A LOT* of questions ) but I have no programming experience, is there anyone here willing to do something like that ? Windell H. Oskay drwho(at)evilmadscientist.com http://www.evilmadscientist.com/ |

What about Pure Data ? Is it possible to use it with the peggy ? If yes, is there anyone using it ? I've just started with it |

I do not know of anyone using pd, but the interfaces are pretty flexible-- you could certainly make that work if you wanted to. Windell H. Oskay drwho(at)evilmadscientist.com http://www.evilmadscientist.com/ |
