Minitela do Positivo Vision R15M: AHMI display protocol and ACF format
Minitela do Positivo Vision R15M implements Linux tools for the laptop’s 240×240 secondary display. The project documents its AHMI serial frames and ACF texture container using vendor-app captures, synthetic-image output comparisons, and analysis of the Windows texture compiler. Python tools send images, change pages and brightness, update display tags, and inspect the protocol.
