A Hacker News post asks for recommendations for large-format (>20 inches) touchscreen e-paper displays for a low-power calendar project, and commenters suggest a Dasung e-ink monitor and the Sony DPT-RP1.
The discussion highlights the lack of off-the-shelf large-format touchscreen e-paper displays, forcing engineers to consider repurposing existing e-ink hardware. The suggested workarounds involve significant cost and modification effort, and may not fully meet the touchscreen requirement.
