ABOUT THE FONT

7 Segment Display is a Font using only 7 Segments that can turn off or on independently to display number, letters, symbols and more, but some characters are compermised!

FONT VARIENTS

This is only 1 of 4 variants of the 7 Segment Display font lineup:

-   7 Segment Display

-   7 Segment Display (Lowercase)

-   7 Segment Display (Full Lines)

-   7 Segment Display (Lowercase + Full Lines)

ABOUT THIS VARIANT

7 Segment Diplay is the default variant, having no connetcion between Segments, other that the rounding (exept some characters)

Latin-1 - Planned

NOTES

It's Readable.

Greek and Cyrillic were also Planned, COMMING SOON!

CHANGELOG

Beta - Added Uppercase.

Release Canidate - Added Lowercase, Numbers, and Some symbols.

1.0 - Finished Basic Latin.

1.01 - More Accurate.

Fixed: Q, q, 6

Added: Æ, æ, £, <, >, (, )

Inspired by radios' digital segment-displays.

An attempt to make a Calculatrix with both squares and hexagonal segments. The result doesn't really fit in with the others, but it has a harsh and highly technical appearance about it which I like.

More glyphs later, maybe?

Experimental 25-segment display with some interesting geometry. :D

An experimental 15-segment display which looks rather like a fence.

There's no DE-FENSE against DE-FENCE!

Nirvanite Fossil with round shapes changed to diamonds.

I think this one is the toughest to read in the family - even harder than Nirvanite Pixel. Oh well!

universally usable square script of a maximum of six lines, developed as a curve-less blind-handwriting (universell nutzbare Quadratschrift aus maximal sechs Linien, entwickelt als kurvenlose Blinden-Schreibschrift), by Alexander Fakoó www.fakoo.de/quadoo

Zapotec-style mosaic/segmented display. :D

(Use _ for the full design.)

Pixelated demake of Nirvanite Fossil. It introduces more size variation than its predecessors, and proves even harder to read. The size variation was necessary to prevent these sprites from being too large and to make them more unique from the glyphs in Nirvanite Fossil.

Original size: 25pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

Alternate take on Nirvanite, this time with bullseyes rather than solid circles as the large segments.

This one is a lot more organic than its predecessor, but also a lot more confusing. Looks like clusters of alien tadpole eggs to me!

Experimental mosaic... or maybe a new mineral species?

This one started as a doodle. I began placing circles to see what kinds of complex shapes I could make, and this was the result.

It achieves a new visual effect at almost every size up to the original. Also try slowly moving the zoom slider for some interesting animations!

*

This font is now nearly 1MB in size! I guess it has to do with the intrinsic complexity of circles.

Experimental 24-segment display or massive monochrome Mondrian matrix. Pixel compatible!

The thinking behind this one was that with incongruously sized segments arranged in the proper way, I would create a design which was effectively 5x5, but which accomodated more glyphs than 5x5 usually does. Negative space is incorporated into the structure of many glyphs, though not enough to classify this as an IVO design.

"Qualtron" is the name of an imaginary entity that a friend believed in - a being meant to represent the result of "a mathematical equation that can rule the universe". I didn't inquire further about it... :D

*

Design Rules:

1. Segments can have interior length/width of 2 or 5.

2. The central 2x2 square must always remain open.

3. Square bricks and 90-degree angles only.

Original size: 20.75pt (use multiples of this value for pixel perfection)

I was making some new bricks to add to Brick Basket when the idea of a segmented display made from composites occurred to me. The result is this experimental 25-segment display.

This achieves some interesting "double line"/"folded line" effects. It also gets some pecuilar distortions at smaller sizes.

Version 2.6

Inspired by a comment by jonrgrover.

I built diamonds sized according to the Fibonacci series, then made a segmented display out of them. The design was then carved away to make the glyphs you see here. I used the members 1, 2, 3, 5, and 8. These sizes proved most feasible to work with in this sort of arrangement.

I gave the terminals a flared appearance which I think makes the glyphs look slightly Celtic. The design also makes me think of beach sand and things found on the beach - shells, pretty rocks, and so on.

Made via subtractive methods.

A 117-segment display made to have a more "mosaic" look. Try using this one at odd sizes, especially with antialiasing off! The resulting distortions occur in a consistent way which leads to many new uses for the font.

Original size: 38pt

Experimental 12-segment display. This is my attempt at making an ultra-small segmented display suitable for printing on actual pixel art screens. As far as I know, this is the first fusion of Latin-style microfont and segmented display.

Initially I tried making this with 3px long segments, but the result looked almost exactly like Calculatrix 12. So I shrank it down to 5x5 to ensure it would take on its own look.

Of course, your pixel art style still needs to be a pretty big one for this font to work well - I recommend a display area of 82*7px or more.

Experimental 33-segment display. While setting the spacing for Piscrypt Plain, I turned on monospacing and all the glyphs stacked up. I thought that made an interesting shape to design a segmented display on.

This has its own set of composite bricks; feel free to clone it and experiment!

Original size: 20pt

A segmented display inspired by Lorica Segmentata.

I didn't make this to convey the idea of "Space Romans", but I can see how it might be used in such a context. For that I'm envisioning something like a flip-dot display which uses these metal plates. Perhaps in the future I'll get an Arduino and some servos, then set about trying to build such a display...
