Synced video tryptic with Raspberry Pis and laptop screens @Raspberry_Pi #piday #raspberrypi #iLuvMyPi2

A filmmaker friend approached me to design a display device that would allow her to display a video tryptic at the 2015 Venice Art Walk. The idea was to create a frame that would contain all the components necessary to play three different videos on three separate screens in perfect sync.
