Closeup from the TFT (thin film transistor) side.
This is a small LCD from a digital photo camera. The glass plates where separated with heat.
This is the glass plate with the transistors on them. On the other plate are the RGB filters.
Took me a while to get this working - datasheet seems wrong, or I have the wrong datasheet... either way it works now

I agreed to a create-something-handmade swap with a couple of friends on Facebook. One is an English teacher so I decided to make something I've been thinking about for a while: a small box which displays random words. I like the idea of an object that's different every time you look at it.
So I got a small 16x2 LCD and started coding and wiring my Arduino project. I liked the idea of it being standalone (run off batteries) so I added an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) so it could go into power-saving sleep when the surroundings went dark. I found it difficult to reliably and consistently measure the changes in current draw resulting from my experiments, so I'm unsure how well that worked. And I've given them away now.
The ATmega328 has only around 32k program & memory so I needed some heroic measures to squeeze in a decent number of words. I used Huffman coding to compress a list of real words (a subset of the Grandiloquent Dictionary, used with permission). I also used Markov chains to generate (a nealy infinite?) number of random pseudo-words.
See the set.
In order to reduce teenagers' eye diseases caused by TV, we should make joint efforts. TV producers can try to make eye-protection TV programs and improve the quality of images. Meanwhile, parents should help children develop good habits of using eyes in a proper way.

In the enclosure with power wires permanently attached. Next step in a couple of days is to hook up the serial connection to a PC.
LCD emoticon macro. Too bad the ISO was forgotten at 3200, unfortunately I am too lazy to do another shot like this one. Three diodes form 1 pixel.
My high-tech (albeit temporary) entertainment system.
This is what happens when:
a. I have spare time on my hands
b. I have a laptop
c. I have an LCD monitor within arms reach
d. My family wants to watch a movie I have
e. I have no blank DVDs
Yes, that is my sexy 19" LCD standing in front of the television. And my laptop is running it. And it's hooked up to our stereo system. Drool anyone?
