with regard to Power, I found that I didn't trust other boat users to not turn the power off at the switches accidently so I added some simple electronics to my Pi to make the schematic below:
with this the switched power is connected to the breaker panel and the const 12V is connected to battery, if the switched voltage goes off it is sensed at pin 40 and a power down is started, once the Pi shuts down, the relay is turned off, disconnecting the constant 12V. the hardware costs less than $10 and looks like the below:
By connecting a momentary switch between pin 40 and ground, you can also start the shutdown process when pressed
Thanks for the idea
Daylight viewing is OK ?
But it has a certain "mirror" effect. I placed this question to Shiovision, and I was told that the capacitive touchscreen is better in this aspect. (mine is restive touchscreen)
Thanks for the feedback. I mounted my cockpit display under the sprayhood so not in direct sunlight. This display looks like a good option when time comes to replace the rugged Panasonic tablet I have now
