The video demonstrates the use of e-Paper/e-Ink displays that use the SPI Bus. It begins by demonstrating on a 4.2" display and Weather Forecast data from Weather Underground, then it goes through the connections for an ESP32/EPS8266, then discusses library setup and then finally power-consumption (zero if disconnected) and typical battery duration using an ESP in sleep mode.
