The Raspberry Pi 7" Touch Display adds a truly interactive visual capability to the Raspberry Pi, with an 800x480 resolution.

The potential applications are huge and will lead to the emergence of many new innovative projects including tablets, personalised infotainment systems and home automation projects.

Now comes with an additional DSI cable for use with Raspberry Pi 5!

Tip: If you're using a Raspberry Pi 4 and looking to power your screen without the messy jumper wires, you should take a look at our custom-made Micro-USB Power Cable!

Features

The 7” Touchscreen Monitor for Raspberry Pi gives users the ability to create all-in-one, integrated projects such as tablets, infotainment systems and embedded projects.

The 800 x 480 display connects via an adapter board which handles power and signal conversion. Only two connections to the Pi are required; power from the Pi’s GPIO port and a ribbon cable that connects to Raspberry Pi boards with a DSI connector (not compatible with the Raspberry Pi Zero).

Touchscreen drivers with support for 10-finger touch and an on-screen keyboard are integrated into the Raspberry Pi OS for full functionality without a physical keyboard or mouse.

Turn your Raspberry Pi into a touchscreen tablet, infotainment system, or standalone device
Truly Interactive - supports a virtual ‘on-screen’ keyboard, so there is no need to plug in a keyboard and mouse
Make your own ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT) devices including a visual display. Simply connect your Raspberry Pi, develop a Python script to interact with the display, and you’re ready to create your own home automation devices with touchscreen capability
A range of educational software and programs available on the Raspberry Pi are touch-enabled, making learning and programming easier on the Raspberry Pi
