I have started collecting all the tablets for this project and even started programming a couple of the apps.
The android app below is my first LCARS app - it monitors temperature and humidity remotely via Bluetooth. I will post more on this app and remote sensor in a future blog.
The video below provides a feel for the LCARS theme and how it looks on tablet computers:
The app is called "LCARS UI" by NeoTechni in the Play Store
Among its many features it has a built-in browser and text-to-voice browsing capability.
I tried to make the video while hand-holding the tablet because the tri-corder is a hand-held instrument, but it would probably have been better to just leave it on the stand.
