mosttoastlooking for recommendations on a small, preferably cheap projector. It seems like there's no shortage of possibly-junk mini projectors out there (sub $200). How do I tell the difference? I'm hoping to use it for art and mural painting. ideally works without some bullshit spyware app and can do weird angle throws. don't need video at all, so higher res photo is good. #projector #foss #RecommendationWanted #art
Abbie 🇵🇷🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈@mosttoast if you are up for building one yourself, there's plans online. Because you'd supply the LCD, you can pick the resolution you want. It can be done for under $200 last i checked.
@antijingoist damn, that sounds like a cool project but I definitely don't have time to learn anything fancy. and the stuff im seeing when i look it up are mostly shoebox, and don't have warp throwing or anything like that.
@mosttoast ohhhh I wasn’t thinking of the shoebox stuff.
But yea it’d be involved. Awesome, but involved. One like this has been on my todo list for over a year. https://hackaday.com/2020/06/22/a-true-4k-projector-from-scrap-ebay-components/
