Default My new pico projector toy

It's a really fun toy to have. Next project I'm going to figure out how to make it a heads up display or a rear windshield TV

Got it here:

That looks awesome. Is it battery powered?

Congrats on the new toy.

looks cool. HUDs are tricky though. Issues are with 'ghosting'. Reflecting light off of glass will give you 2 (or more) images, as the light reflects off the surface of the glass, and off the inside of the opposite surface.

With that said, if you use a combiner lens, (other than your windshield), keep the material as thin as possible so the dual images overlap as much as possible.
