BOLDscreen 32 has a high-bandwidth, digital video input and can be driven just like the LCD monitor on your desk, with standard software tools. Simply run the provided 30 meter optical fibre cable through a waveguide and plug it into the BOLDscreen 32 AVI video matrix switch.

We have designed BOLDscreen 32 with custom electronics which deliver your stimulus direct to the screen - the output is lag free and synchronous to the input video signal. Other "MRI Compatible" LCD displays designed for patient entertainment in MRI typically use TV technology and video scan conversion which deliberately interpolate the input, producing an image which may look easy on the eye, but is unsynchronised and smeared with respect to the input, and therefore of limited use for precision scientific applications.

The BOLDscreen 32 design incorporates a premium 32" 1920x1080 IPS LCD panel with native 10-bit RGB colour resolution and a stunning static contrast ratio of 1400:1 (measured with the backlight on; [1 1 1]:[0 0 0] RGB contrast ratio). The panel features 120Hz panel drive capability, and a fast 5ms grey-to-grey response time. The digital video input will synchronise to a 1920x1080 @ 120Hz video signal and will output video at the same rate. The BOLDscreen 32 AVI supports inputs at other resolutions and frame rates, including from sources like iPads, Blu-ray disc players, and Internet streaming media players like the Apple TV.

To achieve the image quality required for scientific visual stimulation, we illuminate the panel with a custom LED backlight. This produces highly saturated chromatic displays and a peak white output at up to 350cd.m-2 (other calibrated white settings are simple to set in the device configuration file). We have also incorporated a sensor for real-time calibration that ensures consistent luminance immediately from switch on, and automatically compensates for the usual drifts in brightness due to temperature changes and ageing.

The 32" LCD display is designed to provide maximum field of view when sited at the rear of a 70cm bore and viewed via headcoil mounted mirrors. The image can be automatically left-right flipped, to cancel the flip caused by the mirror. The low voltage DC power supply is installed through the penetration panel, and the fibre optic video cable passes through the waveguide, to the BOLDscreen 32 AVI located in the control room.

We are the only manufacturer and vendor that provides an "MRI Compatible" MR Safe LCD monitor that you can site anywhere inside the MRI room, even directly at the exit of the rear of the magnet bore so that you can maximise the visual field of view.

The iPhone display is engineered together with iOS software for optimal performance and quality. A nongenuine display might cause compatibility or performance issues. For example, an issue might arise after an iOS software update that contains display updates.

This tutorial shows how to use the I2C LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) with the ESP32 using Arduino IDE. We’ll show you how to wire the display, install the library and try sample code to write text on the LCD: static text, and scroll long messages. You can also use this guide with the ESP8266.

Additionally, it comes with a built-in potentiometer you can use to adjust the contrast between the background and the characters on the LCD. On a “regular” LCD you need to add a potentiometer to the circuit to adjust the contrast.

Before displaying text on the LCD, you need to find the LCD I2C address. With the LCD properly wired to the ESP32, upload the following I2C Scanner sketch.

Displaying static text on the LCD is very simple. All you have to do is select where you want the characters to be displayed on the screen, and then send the message to the display.

The next two lines set the number of columns and rows of your LCD display. If you’re using a display with another size, you should modify those variables.

Scrolling text on the LCD is specially useful when you want to display messages longer than 16 characters. The library comes with built-in functions that allows you to scroll text. However, many people experience problems with those functions because:

In a 16×2 LCD there are 32 blocks where you can display characters. Each block is made out of 5×8 tiny pixels. You can display custom characters by defining the state of each tiny pixel. For that, you can create a byte variable to hold  the state of each pixel.

In summary, in this tutorial we’ve shown you how to use an I2C LCD display with the ESP32/ESP8266 with Arduino IDE: how to display static text, scrolling text and custom characters. This tutorial also works with the Arduino board, you just need to change the pin assignment to use the Arduino I2C pins.
