Hi, for a large project for a 100 slot parking supervision system there need to be 14 7-segment/2 digit 7" display panels each showing different values (ie free slots for specific parking segments).
The hardware supervises sensors (1 per parking slot) giving real-time either "vacant" or "occupied" status for each slot to the control system.
What I look for is a solution that allows my programmer to address each panel individually and transmit a specific 2-digit number to each panel.
I know there are drivers for 7-segment displays but I need to have a solution to address these display panels individually. Similar to large highway display panels showing the price for different fuels at the next petrol station.
My programmer uses C++, the software will be installed on a W10 pc, but the information needs to get out of this pc to the display panels and their individual drivers.
How would this on hardware level best be accomplished?
