Led Display Plans
Posted on May 29, 2008 - Filed Under News
I’ve come up with a list of things that need to be done to the led display… here is what I’ve got planned:
- Move the LED display to a Linux box, as its currently running under Windows. Done!
- Utilize the New IP camera full-time rather than the webcam. Done!
- Add some more RSS feeds and make them more visible somehow.
- Increase the FPS, either by reducing the resolution of the image, or…? perhaps using a flash applet.
- Have an online console for viewing messages and images in the queue.
- Neaten the code so it can be open sourced.
- Mount the camera and the LED display in a better position. Done!
- Look into getting a larger display
Current system diagram: 
A bit overkill, only 2 computers would need to be used at the most simple end, one for the web/mysql/ftp server, the other to control the display and control the webcam/IP camera.
Any other suggestions? Please post a comment
