Beamer projection with mirror
Hello
We (a small homecockpit builders team) are currently building a 2-man helicopter cockpit. The visual is planned with a beamer and large mirror to shorten the projection distance.
On my BLOG I show the the designed configuration. By the end of October will do the setup in hardware and perform some tests. I keep you informed here, also you might check again the BLOG.
