I'm looking at trying to build a homebrew version of a dedicated controller with an integrated keyboard, MPG, and touchscreen. On the touchscreens, I've been looking at some of the 7-8" units originally made for in-dash DVD players, Lilliput seems to be a common name for the hardware and I've read about touchkit as being the main driver for using these 4/5-wire resistive-interface screens with Ubuntu. There seems to be a choice of serial and USB interfaces.
Before I go out and buy a bunch of hardware that doesn't play well, does anyone have any words of wisdom on what I should or shouldn't look at? For reference, this is the sort of unit I'm thinking about: http://cgi.ebay.com/Lilliput-EBY701-NP-C-T-7-VGA-Touch-Screen-1-Year-Warr-/300444259217?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0 * And yes, I realize a 7" screen will have lower resolution than my iPhone 4... I'm looking to build a panel with illuminated modal switches and generally see about moving some stuff off the screen. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sell apps to millions through the Intel(R) Atom(Tm) Developer Program Be part of this innovative community and reach millions of netbook users worldwide.
