image transfer from phone to nrf52840

[karthikeyan]

hi team,

     i need a clarification. my expectation is i want to transfer a image from mobile to nrf52840 pdk and display that image to the gui interfaced in pdk. my doubs are.

1. can i interface the gui in pdk. if yes is there any starting guide or support or how can i start.

2. is there any open source mobile app to transfer the image from mobile to pdk. so that i can check whether it is working or not. if there is no app can you give me the suggestion how can i achieve.

i am using sdk 14.1.

Hi,

1. What kind of GUI are you talking about? I assume you are talking about some display interface, but I cannot give you any great answer without more details of the interface. In general you can interface most SPI/I2C/UART devices using our nRF52840. For display interfacing, we have a GFX library and drivers for two displays (ST7735R and ILI9341) in the SDK. There is also an example showing how to use it.
2. I'm not aware of any such applications, but we do have one that transfer an image from the DK to the phone. The principle should be the same, you just need to send the image the other way.

Best regards,
Jørgen

I'm not familiar with hologram technology. Could you post links to details about this techonology, or some specific parts you are planning to use? If it can be interfaced using one of the serial interfaces supported by nRF52840, I don't see any reason you should not be able to implement this.

hi jorgen i will explain you with this technology  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YWTtCsvgvg

watch this video it is the simple example for hologram. in this i want to change the use case instead of mobile phones i want to interface the normal led display(not touch screen) with nrf52840.

1. which display is useful to interface with nrf52840. is there any example and drivers did nordic provides. if not guide towards this and give suggestion. i will interface the display in i2c or uart.

2. is there any app that can send 3d photo and videos to the nrf52840. if not i can create it but i am having some doubts. if we can send the video which is 100mb from mobile app to controller. how can i play that video to the interfaced display.do i want to save the incoming video to the external memory storage which is connected with controller or i can through put the video from controller(i.e., controller will just act as a mediator)

please suggest me for the above use case.
