Hi All,
Just would like to let you know that I am playing with new VFD, which
you might be interested too.
New VFD display has attracted our attention, as it has big display, 12
matrix 7x5dots places, Stars, Sun and Moon signs, as well as 60
different colour dots orbiting the clock display in an ellipse shape.
All segments/dots/signs can be controlled individually.
As this display is more complicated and allows lots of choices/info to
display, it would take some time to come to final design stage...
Few pictures and initial info are available on our Coming soon web
page at:

As usual, any questions, suggestions are very welcome.
All the west, Konstantin

Konstantin, that is one crazy display. Personally I don't like it
all, it is such an eclectic mix of display elements. It looks like it
was designed by an engineer having a really bad day. Stepping that
second row of dot matrices so it lines up half a dot to the right of
the row above it is guaranteed to make it jar visually and just to
truly put your eye off there is a sloping set of seven segment
characters below that.
I can just about see it becoming attractive if you don't switch
everything on at once. In fact I'd stick to just one thing at once. I
can however see that the quirkiness of this display will be precisely
what attracts it to some people and I am sure that you will sell lots
of them.
Great find, but is the world really ready for something this ugly?
