Studies have shown that doodling could improve memory retention by up to 30% and that exposing your brain to creating intricate patterns (i.e. adult colouring books) could relieve stress and anxiety. This project is a fun drawing application designed to highlight the touch functions of the Gen4 Displays. This project uses a gen4-uLCD-70DT which is perfect because of its size.

How does this Mandala Maker Project Works?

The GUI of Mandala Maker is made on Workshop 4 IDE's Visi Enviroment. Using the touch panel of the gen4-HMI display you can create  different patterns in different styles. Read more here.
