    Wow, what a brilliant imaginative mind! Something I don't posses. An excellent source for inspiration! I wasn't aware of them, thanks for sharing.

  • Great post, now I have to buy another camera.

       Back in the day, we called that wire wrap an example of Engineer Ingenuity.  One step closer to being Red Green, or at least MacGyver.

    I am able to write directly to the linux framebuffer in python.

    fb = np.memmap('/dev/fb0', dtype='uint8',mode='w+', shape=(480,800,4))
fb[:] = [0,255,0,255]

    So hopefully with a firmware upgrade I will be able to unlock the spicy fries or scallop potatoes mode

    In this example I am having https://github.com/juj/fbcp-ili9341 drive the SPI display.

    I should note that if your are using x-windows or an hdmi/dsi display the libcamera preview functionality just works.

    Thanks for the kind words, I like to believe I am slowly learning new things!

    Hey, I'm from the Big Apple!! Thats Not Pie this is: image

    That looks like a margherita pizza slice.

    Over here a pie would typically be food that is baked in a pastry-lined dish, usually with a pastry top covering it.

    Dave where is over here??  Yes, but that stuff is Desert (Fruit tarts, a nice Canoli,  a Rum Baba, and the other stuff) but, this is PIE.
