Looking at that board more in depth I'm amazed at what you guys can do as far as organizing the components. I couldn't get those neatly together on my desk let alone a 2" by 2" square.

I am sorry. I know waiting on boards is excruciating, same here. I will update the pics as soon as I get the REV.2 board.

Re: LPM In a Cube!!

An LPM with freaking blu-tooth???

Everything is better with blu-tooth I guess.

I can't wait to see your final setup. Are you using an ASIC?

Yes, I will be using ASCII. And also there is an update of a video of how the display would look like.


Thanks

Very nice! The word "crisp" comes to mind looking at that display.

Something occurred to me this morning... it may be difficult to see the LCD if it's behind the sensor. I usually measure lasers with the sensor facing me or perpendicular to my line of sight, so I can't see the back... which would be problematic.

Have you figured out how to get around that? How easy would it be to mount the LCD on top?

I can replace the headers with ribbon cable and it should work.

Awesome! :D

Also, as an aside, I need to play with one of those LCD's. It's the right resolution to directly port LumenOS over to it. :eek:

I set the text to be about 4mm in size. For me it is pretty good since the limited space of the diaplay.
And these are not LCD. They are monochrome OLED display.

The OLED is just a nice feature to have. But my main goal of this backpack is actually doing everything over Bluetooth. And all the data will be nice and big on the tablets or smartphone. And all the command can be sent over Bluetooth.
