I just ordered this display/case for a Raspberry PI, and going to build something I've been meaning to do for a while now.
I currently have alerts, browser tabs, and desktop widgets monitoring prices and activity. Been wanting to build a physical dashboard for the coins I am most interested in and alerts when certain events happen.
I am running out of space on my 3 monitors and harder to see the desktop widgets and constantly switching tabs is time-consuming. I'm going to start out with a small display that can fit under one of my monitors and ultimately will likely go with a large widescreen TV above my screens so I can move a lot of my "Dashboard" type of pages into one dedicated display.
I am a big fan of building Dashboards for my business and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs), but I always wanted something physical like this, but replace all the dials and switches with graphs and numbers.
When I have a working prototype, I'll post an update on how it works out. I haven't started the coding, but I want to see if I can work on it this or next week and have it going really soon. I can easily migrate it to a dedicated 50"+ TV mounted on the wall.
I have been wanting to do this for a long time, the recent Steem Backed Dollar event really got me thinking I should already have it. Once my Steem Online Store is ready, I will make them available if they turn out well and people are interested.
