Hello,
I'm new to esp32. I'm trying to make a driver board for a eink display: ED097TC2 . I need to send 1 bit depth 1200x825 images as fast as possible to from the pc to the esp32. Each frame would be about 125kb but I can compress the images with RLE and they become 25kb each. What can i use to send this data faster? Wifi? the serial port?
thanks

Re: Fastest way to transfer data
WiFi would certainly be the fastest way to do that. As an alternative to that, SDIO is also pretty fast, but a lot harder to implement with a PC, so I'd go for WiFi.

Hi thanks for reply. Can i use http or tcp for file transfer while having the esp32 as an AP?ESP_Sprite wrote: ↑Mon Nov 23, 2020 1:18 amWiFi would certainly be the fastest way to do that.

http uses tcp (mainly).Can i use http or tcp for file transfer while having the esp32 as an AP?
tcp is to ensure your data get there correctly with no dropped packets. udp is a send and forget method. udp is faster, but you are not assured that all the data will get to the client.

Practically, either HTTP or a plain TCP connection would work fine.
