It has been a long time coming, PiScreen is now available for purchase at OzzMaker.com.
PiScreen is a TFT(480x320) with touchscreen control for the Raspberry Pi, never need a monitor again!
PiScreen works with the Raspberry Pi model A, A+, B, B+ and Raspberry Pi 2.
Will this work with the raspberry 2?
Yes, this does work with Pi 2
does it work with LogiPi on Raspberry Pi 1 or 2?
Is this exclusive to a particular Pi distro like some other screens or is it “plug and play” for any distro? Ie does it work with any Pi distro?
It works on most distros, just a simple edit of one file to enable the display.
What distros do you have in mind?
There are a few, the ones I have in mind are OpenELEC, OSMC, Kali 2, retropie, and Ubuntu. I have a few pi 2s so if there are any specific files or modifications I need to get each of those distros to work then any info/help would be great. Also, are u located in Australia? And how much shipping within Australia?
Yes, we are in Australia. Shipping within Australia is by Express post at $10.20.
OpenELEC,OSMC = the TFT works but touch is difficult to configure
Kali – works 100%. There are guides available on the internet on how to configure
RetroPi– Our understanding is that RetroPi is based on Raspbian, therefore PiScreen will work
100%. But then you would need to confirm that all the applications will accept touch input from the TFT.
Here is how to enable the drivers;

Does this works on Rasperry Pi 2 with Windows 10 IoT?
Yes, but it isn’t “plug n play”, you would need to include the drivers with ony applications you create;
Drivers can be found here;

Hi,
Hope you are doing good.
I have RF set top box, can we record RF remote using lirc same as IR remote. And send those command using ‘irsend’ in Raspberry Pi terminal.
Please share the detail steps to record RF and create lircd.conf file.
