It should detect the files on the thumb drive for use in your new layers. If you want to use your media plug in a USB thumb drive with the photos and videos (.mp4) and reboot the Pi.

If you want to access the Raspberry Pi command prompt, hit the вЂњEscвЂќ key and find yourself at a screen that says opm login: The username is вЂњpiвЂќ and the password is вЂњraspberry.вЂќ If youвЂ™re stuck at this menu. Experiment with it, and hit the вЂњiвЂќ key if you want keyboard command info on the screen. I recommend a вЂњwiredвЂќ USB mouse as IвЂ™ve run into issues with wireless mice movement being choppy. Using 1, 2, 3, 4 to switch between the different modes, you can manipulate, and add layers, change the source video, and other adjustments using the keyboard. The Pi should boot up and present you with an example Triangle. (optional, connect it to a network via Ethernet for additional features and control). Power up the pi with it plugged into your projector. Insert a MicroSD card into your computer, open Etcher (it should auto-select the drive) select the PiMapper image, and click Flash.

#PROJECTING WEBSITES USING MADMAPPER UPDATE#

If you do it yourself, make sure to update the CP (control panel) to the latest version: here follow the instructions on the page, and youвЂ™re up to date. If you have a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 laying around, you can go here, follow the instructions and build a pocketVJ from scratch or support the developers by buying a PVJ from Switzerland.

Video sync over Ethernet or Wifi (not with mapping).

Web control panel (Access from phone or computer).

Not to mention, you can run custom scripts through the web CP and automate your installations. Since the PVJ has Pi Wall and a syncвЂ™ed video player, you string them together for a multi-projector installation. Load the pre-rendered videos back onto the Pi and play them in sync. An easy way around this is to record the mapped output from a computer. But like ofxPiMapper (which the PVJ uses), you cannot sync mapped content. Unlike the miniMAD, the PVJ supports wifi connections and video player sync. It hosts a wide feature set that easily accessed on a Phone or computer through a custom web control panel (CP).

PocketVJ 3.5 is a portable multimedia tool based off of the Rasberry Pi platform.

Price / Requires MadMapper (not a terrible thing!).

Limited customization (not open source).

HereвЂ™s a gif from the developer of 28 miniMADs in sync. It uses Madmapper (Mac/PC) for setup, which makes it the most natural RPi projection mapper that IвЂ™ve tested. Currently, the considerable advantage that the miniMAD has over all other RPi mappers that you can Sync a lot of them over ethernet for multi-mapped installations.

IвЂ™ve documented how easy it is to get up and running with the miniMAD here: but with its price point of $220 + a mad mapper license ($420 own, $42 / month rent), it may stretch your budget further than youвЂ™d like. YouвЂ™ll want to plug a keyboard and mouse into the device to control it, but it boasts a wide feature load and continual developer support. If you havenвЂ™t tried it already, open frameworks PiMapper, simply works. All three are excellent choices, and between each of them, there are some proвЂ™s and conвЂ™s that youвЂ™ll want to take into consideration. MadmapperвЂ™s miniMAD, ofxPiMapper, and the all-in-one PocketVJ. When it comes to projection mapping with the Raspberry Pi, a few options come to mind. This is not a guarantee that the Pi is perfect for you, but it should come as a reassurance that theyвЂ™re built to last. My longest running Pi install has been going on for 3 years now, and I have yet to replace anything more than a microSD card. IвЂ™ve been using Raspberry PiвЂ™s for installations and various projects for years now. PocketVJ runs off of ofxPiMapper and features a web portal for control, but ofxPiMapper by itself will take a little bit of research to become proficient at it.

The exception to this, the minimad, integrates with MadMapperвЂ™s software and is easier to set up. Basic Linux commands and knowledge are recommended for anyone looking to work with a Raspberry Pi. Whether youвЂ™re a projection mapping beginner or pro, the RPi may be perfect for your next project.ДЄs a disclaimer to this article. In this article, IвЂ™ll go over some Pi-powered options and simple setup. TheyвЂ™re compact, affordable, and powerful enough to handle a wide range of projects.
