CyberPlug Stand with 7-Segment Display

Cyberdeck Stand with 7-Segment Display

One of the problems I had with my cyberdeck was that there wasn't any way to place it on a table, so I decided to make a stand for it. It has a 4-digit, 7-segment display controlled by an ESP32. By default, it shows the time, but once I turn on my cyberdeck, which launches a small Flask script on startup, the stand alternates between displaying the time and the CPU temperature.

What you'll need:

2× mini breadboards
4-digit 7-segment display
USB-C
Jumper wires
ESP32
74HC595 IC
4× 220 ohm resistors
