A handmade HDMI capture card for the Raspberry Pi #HDMI #RaspberryPi @Raspberry_Pi
Reddit user Liksys posts a novel HDMI capture solution.
(A) HDMI video capture board that connects like raspicam to CSI interface. It uses Toshiba TC358743 chip, the HDMI-to-CSI bridge. For my IP-KVM project on Raspberry Pi, I needed to figure out how this chip works. Of course, the chip’s datasheet describes its application, but there are many nuances of schematics that can only be understood by physically touching the device.
And for owners of such devices. there is very fast video server available in order to stream HDMI video over the network with extra-low latency (~100ms).
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
