The LXRobotics Display Shield facilitates the easy control of a Liquid Crystal Display's with 4 rows and 20 columns. The control of the display is done via I2C - only two Arduino Pins are required. The contrast of LCD can be adjusted using a rotary potentiometer. A 2-axis joystick with integrated pushbutton can be used as input device. For a quick and easy start, an open source Arduino library with sample programs is available.
