    Hi folks! I was staring at my projector clock last night, and thought it would be really neat to have the info from a magic mirror projected there in red. Anyone have any experience with creating simple projections? I think it could be a neat application.

        Well, take the raspberry, with MM and then get a tiny LED projector with a hdmi input,

        Like a cheap one from china : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mini-Portable-Home-Theater-1080P-HD-Multimedia-USB-LED-Projector-AV-TV-HDMI-S6E2-/152220185760?hash=item237107b4a0:g:rGgAAOSwZVlXv--w

        Should do the trick :D

        (I have to say, I was a little disappointed, I was expecting multiple 60" screens mounted to the ceiling :D )

          @broberg @johnnyboy I think those would light up the whole room, making it nearly impossible to sleep! Don’t you think?

            @gspitman shouldn’t really if you fiddle with the settings and mounted the projector away from the eyes.

            I sleept like a baby with a normal dlp projector running in my bedroom, so much that I had to put the projector on a timer so the projector wasn’t on all night and used up the bulbs hours :D

              @broberg Crap, that’s another problem! Now I gotta worry about bulb hours, and burn in, since there’s a good chance that the same info will be in the same places all the time.
