On CyberDecks…

A Tiny Pi streaming “A nicely chilled plate of ambient/downtempo beats and grooves“…

Not quite as DIY – teh Clockwork Pi uConsole

When your Adafruit Industries Cyber Deck HAT just isn’t cyberdecky enough… add some meccano!

CyberDeck with added meccano attached to Raspberry Pi 400 — Adafruit’s CyberDeck HAT with added Meccano to support 5 inch HDMI display on Raspberry Pi 400

Meccano supports added on plastic standoffs

HDMI connector at the bottom of the screen

Short HDMI cable adapter fits onto 180° adapter PCB

Normally the HAT is held in place pretty tight, but I had to use an extender header as the 5.0″ screen’s HMDI connector along the bottom edge fouled the Pi 400’s case.

This was my first attempt at building a tiny CyberDeck: Pi Zero 2W, Adafruit 2.8″TFT LCD with @Solderparty‘s BBQ20 USB keyboard

(BBQ20 keyboard updated with modified firmware to make it more Linux friendly – adding keys like ESC/TAB etc.)

Then I tried the 5.0″ Elecrow HDMI screen, but most of the bulk of the whole setup was the HDMI connectors/cables 😦

Nice screen, but too much weight/bulk in the HDMI adapters/cables

HDMI cable did make a nice stand though!

Finally getting somewhere – the Pimoroni Hyperpixel 4 (all IO over the GPIO pins!) much neater and with better screen quality then the 2.8″ or 5.0″ screens. And so cute 😀

I modified the plastic bottom of the Flirc case to allow me to mount the Zero4U USB hub directly onto the Pi Zero.
