Could you build this?
Partial Building an ESP32 display firmware and a Home Assistant integration or MQTT/ESPHome configuration is accessible, but debugging embedded display hardware drivers, LVGL/e-paper timings, and low-level C++ firmware issues usually breaks pure vibe coding.
What it would actually take: Requires ESPHome or custom C++ (ESP-IDF/PlatformIO) driving an e-paper or TFT display using LVGL, communicating via MQTT or Home Assistant Native API over Wi-Fi. The difficult aspects involve handling power management/deep sleep cycles, frame buffer memory limitations on ESP32, and hardware pinout/bus timing nuances.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a hardware & robotics tool for Fintech yet.
