I was asked to join the Microsoft Coding4Fun team this year at Maker Faire.  The project I came up with was multiplexing several stock store bought signs and display full motion video from a webcam on them… Unfortunately it’s almost impossible to do full motion with stock parts, so it evolved into a “LED photobooth.”

The signs are BetaBrite Prisms, the software is written in c#.

The software is driven by many c# examples derived from the web:

• Jeff Atwood’s BetaBrite API ported to c# by Clint Rutkas
• DirectShow DxSnap example
• All tied together with my code to multiplex and splice images.

It was two very long days.
