Hi all,

Just a noob here, but PLEASE do help me out.

I'm from Mumbai.

Taken up this project.

I was actually planning to start off with a small lcd screen and what the results come out to be.

I'v tried a few tests just to grasp the concept, which was;

• Trying to project an image from my ipod on the wall using just a magnifying glass (Sherlock Holmes kinds) lol. well it was pretty successful, gave me expected results: inverted images, a faint projection although i turned the brightness up to the max. achieved a crisp image projection of 14" (200% scaling)

• also tried to project my laptop using the magnifying lens. againg same results - 200% scaling and faint projections. ( inverted the screen using ctrl+alt+Down)

Now that i get the concept i have moved ahead to try build a small version before i invest in a big one.

So guys please help me out. my science and electronic knowledge is just at school level (basic focal lengths, concave, convex lens properties and circuits.) ( doing my CA now :p )

INVESTMENTS on THE PROJECT:

• i just brought a nokia LCD screen from Crawford. (rs. 160) (2.5")

CAN SOMEONE HELP ME OUT WITH joining the LCD to my Laptop/Ipod?

attaching pics for the same.
