Given that I can not find a thread regarding things here is one on the alien isolation motion tracker: 3d files: https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-print-model ... or-cosplay or https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3696123 |

I’m not 100% sure but I’ve got a feeling someone over on the RPF built one. Harry |

I also have 3d files I created back in 2015 I will share for free to people actually wanting to make one. |

If it helps, here's one thread on the RPF: Alien Isolation motion Tracker. Harry |

Thanks Harry. You are always a great help and resource. I just ordered the technical parts off of aliepxress for about 30. Once I get the parts I can start wiring and tinkering as I have been told that the code needs some work. the 3d files will run you about 80 or so on treat stock. |

These are so cool. I would love to make one of these. For me its the little whine noise that the tracker makes when you switch to it, sort of like a brief power up, that really signifies this particular item. If i was going to make one I would really want it to do that. |

Sorry been MIA. Had some medical issues but on the mend. In the next week I will be posting updates on many of my projects. I will post on my Isolation MT first. I 3d printed all the parts and now assembling. Will be static for now with lights. Attachment: Thanks! Greg |

OK I got the setup to function. I just need to do code clean up https://learn.adafruit.com/2-2-tft-display/overview For space considerations I may try switching it over to a nano. Really depends on what kind of room I have when I get the 3d files processed. |

I have been speccing out arduinos and it appears that the pro mini would be the best bet. Now I have been swiching over to screw terminal headers for space, ease of repair, and just less overhead for space and connections. |

I got the print and it looks like a 3.5" screen would work. the 4:3 standard format of the viewer is a bit of a pickle with the arduino as, most 4:3 are rca connectors, not spi. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/22558010 ... _shipto=US Plus the larger size past 2.8 uses the ili9488 chipset for encoding which also causes a delay actively rendoring, but not much of an issue here, I think. This may mean I will need to re-encode for the larger display coordinate wise... |

The 3.5" screen uses an ILI9488 driver. a different driver setup will be needed for the 480x320 display along with some geometry calculation changes. I bought the display here: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/22558010 ... _shipto=US The first library I will try will be this one which is recommended from the arduino.cc forums: https://github.com/Bodmer/TFT_eSPI nix this idea. This board is not a nice player with arduino and the drivers are not common as of yet. |
