blackbox

The controller as an android app. Your phone drives a projector directly: the controls stay on the phone and the visual runs full screen on the projector, so there is no laptop in the middle.

INSTALLING
  1. Download the file above, then open it from your notifications or downloads.
  2. Android will ask about installing from this source — allow it for your browser.
  3. Play Protect will warn that it does not recognise the app. Choose install anyway; this build is signed, just not distributed through the store.
  4. Plug the adapter into your phone, connect the projector, and pick desktop mode rather than mirror when android asks. Mirroring would put the controls on the projector.
THIS BUILD

An early release. The visuals keep running when you leave the app, the output is fitted to whatever projector you connect, and the camera background source is left out of the app. The controls are grouped in the order you work through them, with the output button first, and the post effects are buttons you stack rather than a list you have to pick through.
