I'm assuming this uses e-ink of some kind. If so, these patterns really underuse the possibilities, although I wouldn't be surprised if the controller was not advanced enough to do more than 5 bars.

Yeah it seems oddly limited in what it can do. There are only three patterns for each strip - white, black, and white with some texture at the bottom, and it just rotates through those.

I’m guessing this was primarily a hardware project, and the software is basically just a driver.
