The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

hi all,

I have one of these ones.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-2-Inch-SPI- ... 1eb35877d2

it fits great in the viewer although it will need some work to mask off the non-screen areas

here it is in the viewer. There is also a 2.4" one that will also probably fit since it doesn't have the backing pcb.

I am working on a raspberry pi version of the tracker software that will include sound and a digital compass movement feature. If and when I get it finished I will gladly share. in the mean time here is my progress pic. There are significant issues to iron out before I can put it out there but I will if I can.

I think this is the route to go. Instead of a ready kit all can get the hardware and share the programs to get it going.

Thanks!

Yes, the parts are all pretty inexpensive. I just need to get the software in shape. I have a pretty decent version working on my raspberry pi but the performance isn't good enough. I'm working on a solution that requires a partial re-write so with any luck this will do the job. I'll keep you informed good or bad.
