While the urge to use less segments is quite interesting, the problem I see with all of these is that the individual segments themselves becomes far more complicated. The simplicity of the 7 segments in the classic display all being little dashes is hard to replicate.

Yeah but from the engineering perspective the circuit doesn't care how long the diode is and if you found some nice design you could represent all the digits with 4 bits instead of 7 bits. It could actually be useful in some real life cases. But the 4 segment design would have to be good and readable.

​@@Cypekeh A seven segment display still represents the numbers with four bits, it includes a few logic gates to determine which of the seven segments to display from these, rather than being directly told with seven input bits.

The display at 1:28 looks good. Plus, the 0 being small and thus distinct from the other digits could be useful for calculations as knowing where the 0s are in a number make it easier to calculate stuff with it

It's also really good for calculations since it shows X and Y clearly, not only are they the most common letters used for variables but they are the two axises on a 2D grid! Z for the 3rd axis is also possible but it's identical to the 2.

​@@Periwinkleaccount On some youtube video, you will find those type of copypasta. I will give you an example: I am currently crying so hard right now. This is seriously the most beautiful, well put together story ever. I can’t believe how magical it was 1:12. That part truly made me shed a tear. And especially at 6:34 that part was just so truly heart touching words can not describe the series of emotions I felt. I absolutely loved the climax it had insanely excellent detail. Oh and we can’t forget the conclusion. The conclusion was the greatest and saddest conclusion I have ever seen better than any of the books I have read. Thank you so much for creating this absolute masterpiece. This is essentially the most important masterpiece of film history. It is a tragedy that this, it can’t be called a film, but a transcendent emotional experience, will be inaccessible for most. It beautifully encapsulates the human struggle to its basics; suffering, pleasure, faith, despair. It connects with the characters within the viewers, individuals suppressed within our own subconscious. It stays vibrant, fresh, and revolutionizes the art of storytelling and filmmaking while making a damn of statement on what it means to be human. Entertaining, gripping, and simply exhilarating. This might be the most impactful piece of art I’ve come across in my life, and I’m definitely coming back to it in the near future to study it more deeply. this is an absolute masterpiece , I was brought to tears listening to this and seeing the bacon go whirly swirly in a circle countless times. it absolutely moved my soul , and I don't think I can ever be the same. this bacon has changed my entire mental state , I am now at peace with who I am and what I will be doing later in my life. i have forgiven all my enemies and now I am a man of a pacifist life. I will move on , gotta move on , as the song says. the bacon is so inspirational , it shares it vast wisdom with all of us , and we are all so lucky that it would bestow it's great words with us. we are all children on bacon. hail bacon. hail bacon. The spinning bacon, rotating in one direction with this music... This made me tear up. How could such a bacon do such a thing? I'm struck by awe by this masterpiece. Especially when the bacon spins, showing its lightly salt covered tan skin. I can hear the crunch just from here, and so as the beautiful sound of the bacon scraping the dark, smooth velvet floor. The flavor, music and everything can be heard, tasted, seen and felt from a screen. You can really hear the breaths between the music artist, empathizing her love for this rotating bacon. Truly what I call modern art. This was the most legendary performance by any piece of bacon I have ever watched. The acting was top tier and very life changing. This is one of the greatest work from a piece of bacon I have ever seen especially on 57:42.I am currently crying so hard right now.

The graphics, the animation, the music, so much thought was put into it. This has remined me that you can do anything you put your mind to. Not even mentioning the memories, this makes me feel like an infant again, just laying my eyes on this beautiful masterpiece gives me all the good feelings in life. I also understand what happiness is again from this. Not even to mention the most incredible part that is 2:10. Bacon spinning has changed my life for the better.

@@catprog I like that a lot, especially since it could improve the 4 as well. Unfortunately, losing the split in the middle would mean that "5" and "8" differ by only one segment, and would make it hard to design other digits to ensure that any two valid digits would have at least two segments difference between them (maximizing Hamming distance would require making the 7 have a vertical side, to avoid similarity to the "2", and making the 1 have a short diagonal stroke to avoid similarity to the "7" and blank. If Hamming distance isn't important, I think a 7-segment display with that middle segment added would be in a lot of ways superior to today's common design. WIth that design, it's often hard for someone with poor visual acuity to distinguish among 0, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9, since they all have the same exterior shape. This design, by contrast, has much more varied exterior contours.

depend on what you mean with "efficiency", with few segments you can make a more compact circuit for converting binary numbers into which segment should turn on, in today's technology there's no need in this but try to make a display in Minecraft that have a binary number as an input, with less segments it's way easier make a circuit

you might say, "if the lower right vertical segment is always on, then spaces would look confusing, and you'd still need an extra segment." in that case, you can make it so the segment is actually split and shared by three other segments. so the central horizontal segment contains part of it, the bottom horizontal segment contains part of it, and the upper right vertical segment contains part of it.        ╻         ┃      ╺━┓   ┃   ╻    ┃   ┃   ┃    ╹   ╹ ╺━┛ this way you can have a better 7 and can make almost all the alphabet, besides f, m, t, w, and x. ╺━┓     ┏━┓ ┏━╸      ╱   ╱┃ ┃╱  ┃     ┃ ┃   ┣━┫ ┣━┓ ┃   ┏━┫ ┃   ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃         ┗━┛ ┗━┛ ┗━┛ ┏━┓ ┏━┓             ┃╱  ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃     ┃ ┃   ┗━┫ ┣━┫ ┃     ┃ ┃ ┃   ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃   ┃ ┃ ┗━┛ ╺━┛         ┗━┛             ┏━┓ ┏━┓ ┃╱  ┃   ┃╱┃ ┃ ┃ ┃╱  ┣━┓ ┃   ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃   ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃ ┃       ┗━┛     ┗━┛      ┏━┓ ┏━┓             ┃╱┃ ┃╱   ╱  ┃ ┃ ┃╱  ┗ ┃ ┣━┓ ┗━┓ ┃ ┃       ┃ ┃ ┃   ┃ ┃ ┃             ╺━┛ ┗━┛          ╺━┓             ┃ ┃  ╱  ┗━┫ ┃     ┃ ┃ ┃ ╺━┛ ┗━┛

Adding two vertical segments down the middle of the traditional seven segments is enough to create disambiguated uppercase and lowercase letters, though some of the lowercase will be tall, and v may require interpretive license. If instead you put an x in the lower half, for a total of 11, you can have a pleasing and appropriately proportioned lowercase, plus reasonable punctuation, without even any need for extra on top for the capitals if you make allowances for T.

I think this allowed it to display all numbers and alphabetic characters fairly clearly.

3:00 You can improve that 5 segment design B if you make the middle horizontal section a bit shorter at the right end and extend the bottom right section into the space created (only majorly sacrifices clarity on 2 and reduces style points on 4, 9 but significantly improves 0, 3)

@raffimolero64 11 ай бұрын
I think I prefer the original. 3 is already really good as is, and I don't think the slight improvement to 0 is worth the downgrade to 2, already difficult to read. My priorities here are to reduce the tail on 2, reduce the indent on the left of 6, and make 0 bigger. Let me know your opinions on this one: Move the middle bar down (making 0 bigger, 6 clearer) Offset the bottom half of 1 (1 is no longer a straight line, makes 6 clearer) Add a serif (little nub sticking out the bottom left) to the top left bar (mames 2 clearer, 3, 7 more stylish) Stretch the top left bar to the right, replacing the top of 1 similar to your suggestion. This now occupies the whole top section. (makes the height of 4's tops more consistent and makes 5, 6 clearer, at the cost of 1's height) We could also add another serif to the middle bar sticking down the bottom right (the exact opposite of your original suggestion) but that would sacrifice 0, 4, 9. What do you think?

@@raffimolero64 moving the middle bar down also makes 2 better. but it makes the 0 look less like a rectangle and more like an almond which is a downgrade imo but it's ok offsetting bottom half of one makes a lot of numbers loose a lot of style points, maybe just decrease the inclination angle of the entire 1 a bit instead of making it completely straight; do this by stretching the entire aspect ratio to be taller and thinner. this will also improve 0 by decreasing the angle on the right side to be less radical completely agree with that serif. i noticed that part as well after typing my comment hmmm instead of stretching it completely into the other, make it so both share the same space with an angle like :- instead of the original: ____ _ __// / ,,,,/ / (ignore the commas and line spacing) or your suggestion: _____ ____/ ,,,/,,,/ (couldn't put the roof on the bottom piece sorry) do this: ____ ___//| ,,,,,,/ / (in the first one the entire square space is given to one segment, in the second it's given to the other and in the third it's distributed equally after being cut in half diagonally) this will also make 4 better, while also giving the desired affect on 5 and 6 without sacrificing much from 1. that serif you said only improves the original version of 2 and sacrifices a lot. but and moving the middle bar down and adding that first serif to the top left piece makes 2 abundantly clear as per the changes made above already, there's no need for this change. I believe we've pretty much created a perfect 5 segment display at this point with only flaws being the small 0 and there being a strange gap in the middle of 1,2,3 which looks perfectly ok with 1 because that is usually the case even with the normal 7 segment display 1; and surprisingly that gap also makes 3 cooler. only for 2 does that gap seem strange, and a 2 shaped like a Z is just too odd. another option is to let the top half of 1 "dig" into the segment below it almost halfway. this makes 5 and 6 a little strange but it doesn't affect their readability while making 1,2,3 less weirder. Also, a lot of interesting things happen if you turn the segments of 1 into a single continuous parabola that has a lot of curve in the top part that smoothly decreases as it goes into the end of the bottom part of the 1, you make it curve outwards into the left side. it makes 7 change it's style to the other well known form of 7, solves the problem of 2 looking like a Z, it also solves the problem with the bottom left part of six looking weird, makes 1 a little strange though but it's not that bad and makes the 4 and 9 look more like the hand written versions, you could make that top serif's inner corner round while you're at it too. oh and i also just realized you can make the bottom half of 1 share the corner space with the neighboring piece in the same way the top one does as i suggested above. this has not much added bonus other than making the 5 perfect and 1 a little more symmetric again with little sacrifice on 4 and 9. I've made a design based on some of the propositions discussed: ( redd. it/13nn4o0 ) (remove the space between the redd. and it/ for the link)

I once tried one for suits. My best is a five segment (depending on how far the same segments parts can be separated, as there are actually 7 segments but two pairs that light at the same time) which keeps everything looking very clean and almost the same size. The diamond has curved sides and appears as the bottom of the heart and the top of the spade. The curves exist to make the club look good, which shares 1(or 2) segments with the heart as well as a connecting segment to create a circle at its top. You could do fewer segments, but the scaling and shape reading would be muddied. Edit: Just thought up a way to make a two segment display for it... If you keep the middle segment (the diamond) as a painted region, it technically doesn't count as a segment. Then just accept that the club has four leaves.

I guess I just can’t pay attention properly, because I had to constantly rewind and pause to be like “that number looks totally wrong” only to realize I’ve been looking at the previous number. I hope my rambling is understandable

I feel like you could fix design 4-B by "accidentally" drawing 6 and 9 backwards. They'd still be perfectly readable, but 4 and 9 would no longer be duplicates.

I know this isn't really the ppint of the video, but What if, instead of redrawing numbers in increasingly complex ways to try to make them visible, you just switch methods entirely? For example, 4 segments can easily display numbers up to 9 in binary with just vertical lines: (Using 0 as the absence of a light) 0000 (0) 0001 (1) 0010 (2) 0011 (3) 0100 (4) 0101 (5) 0110 (6) 0111 (7) 1000 (8) 1001 (9) Trying to design that effeciently for space and clarity could be an interesting experiment.

There was a clock app on linux that did just that, using dots to display time in binary, but idk the name of of.

I think it would be better with the horizontal lines, to make it easier to differentiate between lines representing different numbers, and the geometry overall looks nicer

Actually, your curved design showed a lot of promise. I think some of those segmented displays would've benefitted from using a curve or two as well, but the fact that they use none make them all the more impressive. Overall, really cool video.

I think it would be cool to see the numbers as just the on segments on a dark background, without the outline of the off segments, to really test readability, since most displays just keep a black background anyways.

there is a *single* trick that i know of you can do to make 3 and even 2 segment displays _technically_ display more unique digits than 2^3 and 2^2, and that's by flipping the segments on and off repeatedly as a part of the representation. you could even do this in a way that makes a kind of mathematical sense by flipping between 9 and 1 to represent 8, or the inverse, 8 and 1 to represent 9, or 3 and 2 to make 5, 3 and 4 to make 7, etc. you could also make the state where they are all off be considered a displayed value, and this could give 2-segment displays _7_ possible digits it can display, so close to displaying 10. at this point, with 2-segment displays, you're getting so abstract that it's couldnt possibly be the familiar numeral system at all, though, but it could easily be read in a way kind of like binary instead (except with 3 possible states instead of only 2).
