Ideas to incorporate 7" touchscreen into cabinet

[Todesengel]

Hey Guys,

I have an old lilliput 7" touchscreen that I have had sitting in my closet since the car computer days, back before smart phones haha. And I was wondering if somehow I could possibly incorporate it into my cabinet. I was thinking like a 2nd monitor type deal to display scores, or something like that. Maybe even touch screen jukebox? I was thinking of mounting above the main monitor, between the speakers. Does anybody know of any examples like this that have already been done? Or if you have any ideas on how to make this useful, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks

Some Visual Pinball builds have used them for Dot Matrix Displays and I believe some people have used them to display control panel button functions or marquees.

You can find more info by searching on "lilliput" either here or on VPForums.org.

I have an 8" Lilliput LCD in the CP of my showcase cab. I am using a program called Marquee Magician to display artwork when a particular game is launched. I decased the monitor and it sits underneath plexiglas surrounded by CP artwork.

I like the idea of incorporating it into a jukebox. You could use a nice big LCD with the touchscreen just beneath it.
