Here is a version of my 6 segment display with a smaller symmetric design. This aids it in displaying the alphabet, as well as very full and normal looking numbers. I tried to give this one an aggressive futuristic design, using sharp corners and deep chamfers. I think I would rather use this font than Pylos (my last version), because that was more traditional in many of its design elements; this is designed to be a bit more of a departure.

I should also address the fact that multiple characters are missing, or wierd looking. That’s because of the limitations of the display, it’s not possible to do them all without more segments (it can manage as many as the traditional 7 segment, though!). For future versions or styles, I probably won’t keep doing more than the normal digits, but I thought it would be useful to do them a few times.

Lastly, a few notes. The white accents are just to show the edge of the segment, and aren't part of it (that’s why they disappear on isolated segments). The tilda shows an exploded video of the segments, just for reference.

Thanks!

This is a segmented display concept I’ve been tinkering with for the past couple years, utilizing a concept I call a “fused middle segment”. This is essentially where the side segments are extended to make up parts of the middle, removing a whole LED (this brings the number down to 6). While it has no purpose as a font, I wanted to try it out here to polish some stuff.

I should also address the fact that multiple characters are missing, or wierd looking. That’s because of the limitations of the display, it’s not possible to do them all without more segments (it can manage as many as the traditional 7 segment, though!). For future versions or styles, I probably won’t keep doing more than the normal digits, but I thought it would be useful to do them at least once.

Anyway, thanks! I would love feedback, and I will make sure to include it in the next versions!
