Nvidia Tegra 3 device owners to get Miracast support



Today Nvidia announced that they'll be supporting  Miracast  wireless display streaming via their existing Tegra 3 based devices.  This might be the answer many Nexus 7 owners with no MHL option have been waiting for. If so then it seems to be a good move by Google & Asus to hold back on adding MHL in the Nexus 7 since it's ultimately kept the device manufacturing cost down. 




All that's required is a TV with a HDMI port and a Miracast dongle which should retail for $80-$100. I'm sure most Tegra 3 device owners will be keenly waiting on when this is released in the future.

Balco 3D Printer Z Brace Mod

Image
I read on some forum's that it's highly recommended you add a Z axis brace. You do this to better align the z axis so it's perpendicular to the build plate and also to take the weight off the centre frame. Luckily my Balco printer is based off the popular Wanhao i3 duplicator v2.1 and someone had already created a printable solution. I love how this 3d printer is able to print parts to upgrade itself. Genuis! I followed the guide described here:  http://3dprinterwiki.info/wiki/wanhao-duplicator-i3/duplicator-i3-basic-mods/z-brace/ The 3d files I downloaded from thingiverse are found here:  http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:921948 The only issue I had was until I get a glass bed I can't manage to print the front Y brace in ABS without it warping. It's an optional part and something I can print later. For now the rest of the required Z brace parts printed successfully in ABS and without supports just using the settings recommended as per the thingiverse post above! Thi...

Teensy LCD Display for MSI Afterburner 3.0

Image
I recently wanted to display the MSI Afterburner statistics to an Arduino based device, specifically a Teensy 2.0++. I came up with the idea that I'd piggyback off the MSI Afterburner Remote Sever windows application which is nothing more than a web server. Long story short, after a few nights of soldering and coding I managed to create this. Because my graphics cards are already quite powerful (2 x GTX 680 2GBs) I decided not to make an overclock button that would trigger a profile set in MSI Afterburner. For now it's just a simple statistics monitor. The case is made from the packaging that came with my wife's iPod Nano. The stand is actually a cheap soldering iron stand and the LCD display is a positive white on red backlight 16x2 character display. For the teensy I just simply used the Arduino sketch example for LiquidCrystalFast->SerialLCD which just runs a loop and continuously waits for any serial messages and when it receives one displays it to the LCD. In ...
