Arduino LDTV

[legoclockfreak710]

you should have labled it "Arduino XLDTV" i think thats pretty self-explanitory!

[crackspider101]

BTW, i'ts pronounced oo-boon-too

[alimesta]

good start!!!!

[MickLionheart]

Arduino + Ubuntu nice trendy open source setup going. On the real, make the arduino play the video from an SD card for added kicks.

[schmidtbag]

you should try a cartoon like the simpsons where theres more generic colors and more easily distinguishable

[TheSwanies]

YAY! UBUNTU!

[olavxxx]

needs more resolution :-)

would be killer if you used 512 or more RGB leds, as you could then view at least some details.

Someone did a research project with something like this where each pixel was replaced by a tiny buzzer and the whole lot was mounted in a garment so the array of buzzers was on back of the person about 1ft square against skin. With training a blind person could "see" with it (in low res of course).

you should have shown the actual video for comparison.

[joebro391]

how much more difficult would the coding be, if you hooked it up to a GLCD?? just curious, i really like what you did. thanks for the input. -Joe

[paintball626]

try hooking it up to a glcd...

[Froggy19510]

I recognized John Stewart......I think :) very Cool!

[jamessnell]

Man, I wish all my monitors were that awesome! lol, I love it!

I bet aalib could be handy for this.. :)

[PirateMonkey2]

Any chance of a slightly higher-def version? Would be cool to see Arduino pushing out some good graphics!

Good work :)

[geeklord09]

Awesome! You sould have the daily show running on your computer with a LED sort of layer over it, maybe then we could understand it a little more.

[gonepishing]

you had better be using HDMI cable!

GOLD PLATED!

[gremlinextreme101]

haha im still at a 2x2 matrix, yours is uber high def compared to mine

[Craigkc]

Forget 1080P, 8P is where it's at baby! I'd love to hear more about the shift registers/driver and serial protocol you developed/used?

[fromdeepitcame]

you should comp the actual show and sync it up on one side of the screen. Aeeing them side by side on screen would be cool.

[fernwood]

That's awesome!

It reminds me of AALib.

[RogerOnTheRight]

Oh, man. What I would give to see Beavis and Butthead on Low Def.

[mpesce]

Wait, you mean it _isn't_ low def?

[gremlinextreme101]

Just a couple more to high def, are you using a matrix driver, i can't find any?

[Dragonuv5]

i didnt get what is the 8x8 led screen based on that makes it change. please explain?

[littlescale]

nice one.

[blacklocist]

Wow cool project, just when you think the arduino couldn't do all now you can watch The Daily Show!

[Bram1978]

i hate the arduino!

[bigfoot156]

@littlescale why not?

[patternsinchaos]

That's hysterical!

[mpesce]

Given the drive toward high-definition, it seemed perfectly reasonable. ;-)

[omaru1]

Jajaja Low Definition TV XD

that's a good one!

[kopaganda13]

LOL. I have an arduino too, and that's very cool! I understand the complications of degrading an image to an 8x8 pixel screen, and I still think it's cool. Good job!
