Luma.Emulator

luma.emulator provides a series of pseudo-display devices which allow the luma.core components to be used without running a physical device. These include:

• Real-time (pixel) emulator, based on pygame

• LED matrix and 7-segment renderers

• PNG screen capture

• Animated GIF animator

• Real-time ASCII-art & block emulators
