PICAXE, is the name of a UK-sourced microcontroller system. They are an easy to program microcontroller and you can use them to control things such as lcd screens. like this: http://www.instructables.com/id/Picaxe-bas...nished-Circuit/ Here is a cool lcd which is similar to the factory dash lighting and alpina gauge colours http://nicegear.co.nz/lcds/serial-enabled-...d-on-black-33v/ Here is somebody using a programmable lcd in their car and i am sure you all recognize the center console, http://lcdash.wikispaces.com/ Here is another programmable lcd multi gauge which somebody setup in their car using picaxe, http://www.markdepot.com/multi/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
