DLPDLCR2000EVM: Custom image projection by direct USB connection.

Part Number: DLPDLCR2000EVM

Hello,

I am using the DLP LightCrafter Display 2000 Evaluation Board, along with the BeagleBone Black host processor. I am trying to display my own images via the projector, but am having trouble sending images to the SD card, especially because the file types it takes don't seem standard to me (I'm not entirely sure why I cannot just send a jpg or png through). Thus, I am wondering if I can bypass the SD card completely, and just send my own projections through direct connection of the USB cable. The manual and documentation were a bit unclear to me on this aspect, so I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

    Russell,

    Are you referring to sending images to the BeagleBone for display?

    If so, then the easiest way to transfer images to the BeagleBone is over usb. You can connect remotely to your BBB and access its file system without having to read the sd card. There are many sources that document how to do this, such as the one below:

    Let me know if you need further assistance.

    Regards,

    Philippe Dollo

    This helped with much of the issue, thank you. However, I do have one further question. After transferring my image to the BeagleBone Black, how would I get it to display via the DLP LightCrafter Display? I assume there is a linux command, I just cannot find it.
