10.1" LCD + Controller Frame

thingiverse

This is designed to hold a 10.1" LCD panel, salvaged from a laptop/tablet. Specifically, the N101ICG-L21 screen was used, which has a 'standard' 40pin LVDS IPEX connector and came with a cable for the controller. Once flashed with the right FW for the LCD panel, it's plug and play. If you search the LCD part number + LVDS controller, you can normally find one pre-flashed for your panel with the right cable. The holes at the front are for the button panel and IR input. As the buttons are shallow, a button model was added to go in the holes, so that the actual buttons push against it from behind. No holder is provided for the button panel at this time, so hot glue is needed... Different button panels will need different hole spacing, as only one type is currently available. The LCD panel can be purchased here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/333233251884 and controllers for it are common too. It's hoped that some completed screens with working printed cases will be sold when this project is finished up.
