I am extremely impressed! This worked amazing, just not with very high quality - but certainly very clear. I made my projector size over 20 times bigger than my phone size! I would also suggest that if you are using this for karaoke, it isn't the best as the words come out backwards. TIP: to make the projector as big as you like, make more distance between the wall and the projector! Also, if you have a well sealed box, don't worry about adding tape or paint to the insides because it worked for me just fine! Hope this helped everyone who wasn't sure if it would work!
You know why this worked better than 99% of the other smartphone projectors? Because she painted the inside black. I made a homemade projector in the early 2000's, before smartphones existed, using an old CRT monitor. Every tutorial I read (there wasn't TH-cam then!) told me to paint the inside black, because any other color will reflect light, and light reflection will reduce the quality of the picture. These other smartphone projector videos you see on here, the person making it doesn't paint the inside black and then complains it sucks! Research people, Research.
+Carrwn Lenore on the projector* and using a stronger lens would also mean using a different setting of measurements for the projector. you could try using different settings to make the image better.
+Carrwn Lenore The problem with this thing is that the brightness of the smartphone screen is limited and the brightness of the wall image decreases as the size increases. So you can get a lot larger image but the brightness will be so low that it will be barely visible in a complete darkness. It's pointless even as seen in the video. That's why we are using a projectors.
@@viejaspeliculasfilipinas3621 it worked for me , but I'm not sure if 15 means that the projected image is like.. 15 times the original photo. If yes, then yes However.. it's blurry of course.. And upended :/ .. upside down I still have the box on the top of the cheuveniera in my grandparents' house.. for some reason.. i cut and assembled it.. it was nice and warm to see the projected photo at night
To adjust the distance to the wall or the phone, also the size of the image, you can calculate like this: Distance from the glass to the wall / distance from the magnifying glass to the phone = the size of the picture on the wall / the size of your phone (use inch) Hmm it's not always accurate 100% due to some other small effects, but almost right. Have a nice day ^^
@@aria-lw1lq well it works but for me i had to make to room 100% dark and also i downloaded an app and i put the video sharpness to 50% and brightness to 200% because otherwise it wasn't bright enough. And also i put it on a white smooth surface. I watched a couple episodes from tv shows but movies i don't it will be great because they are usually darker. Also you have to adjust it just enough because sometime you can go crazy knowing you can do a little better but you usually mess it up. So if you do this. Just adjust it and then don't touchit
My 10 year old daughter built 2 during this winter vacation. She enjoyed making it and was stoked when she focused and saw movie on the wall. That's what really matters, not these other comments that it's video and sound are low quality. she used regular shoe box and round magnifying glass, other she used smaller rectangle boxes with rectangle magnifying glass and she cut off the handle. By the way, she didn't paint the inside of the box, it's lined with white foam. Quote of the day "Never take advice from anyone that hasn't done anything"
@@Dg55345 it only works for certain types of magnifying glasses. I have two magnifying lenses, one has a lower focal length while one has a higher focal length. The higher one is the only one that worked for me.
OK on most smartphones locking the auto-rotate only locks in portrait mode ( not very useful ) this could be solved by putting a mirror in the box angled at 45degrees cutting a screen size hole in the top of the box , for focus don't tape the two boxes together but let the small box slide in and out of the bigger one to focus
A bit complicated but a sweet Idea. Might not be the best thing though. Use any app which can transfer your laptop's screen on the cellphone. Use wifi direct so that The least amount of lag is present. Flip it and put inside the projector. Then Use your laptop to play a game or something.. Probably nothing which requires precise controls.. Play something like.. erm.. ah.. Okay something like battleblock theater. Any 2d game or a less Accuracy hungry game ( Probably not a racing game) And you can enjoy a projector which not only is capable of projecting your phone but your pc too. Cheers. (P.s already done it)
So glad i did this..my bedroom is 8x10 i created a five feet tall shelf, and it projects a 60" on the opposite wall, display from samsung tablet 3, 7". and on my fire phone about 48" display. ( really dark room works bestl) This comes in handy during power outage so i watch movies i downloaded. i live in the Bahamas, so this was like a godsend, only wish i could make it a little brighter, but i guess it would be too awesome lol. Thanks for sharing.
This idea is really great! It’s so cool! But unfortunately when we tried it it was really really small, the image, and it was really blurry. We even tried to use the measurements but the DIY still didn’t work. Great idea though!
Very cool video :) I just have couple of questions regarding the set up. 1) If I want to use my 7" Tab, which Lens should I prefer - 4 Inch with 2.25X OR 3 Inch with 5X ? 2) Also, what should be the ideal Distance from Tab to magnifying glass to get 40" (or so) projection...is there any formula? Thanks!
Its seriously, a good and easy way to make a home projector..........! I liked this video.....! Hope you will make such awesome videos for us again......! Thanks........!
If the magnifying glass is 2m away from a wall your phone should be 1m away from the glass. So if u have a big phone (I did it with a small one) u should just go farther. Am I right?
brilliant. I love the fact that you can use photos too. please please tell me what music you used for your video. not the ditty at the start but the.one throughout.
I'll give you an advice for really cool image improving. Use retroreflective cloth or film for screen. Your eyes should be as near to lens as possible. Because all light reflects back to source with minimal spread. I have such screen for real projector. I'll try to make such projector with phone for fun, then I'll make a video.
hey guys if you want to get know knowledge of magnification like how much distance is suitable for perfect image or the radii of magnification glass just follow simple physics chapter name magnification there they will provide you a simple for formula for measuring distance and etc

+ag123fantasy no. that would flip the image up. you can't really stop it from horizontal flipping as the light refracts off the magnifying glass a certain way. mabye if you where to use two infront of each other? im not entirely sure.
Why did you make the box so large ? I want to do this I have a camera from the 1950's it opens in the back and you can see directly down the pop out accordion like focal lens. I am not using it for anything else its probably worth money but I want to mount that (of course in a way I can just remove it without damaging) and see if I can use it in place of the magnifying glass. This way I can keep a smaller form factor and will be able to adjust the distance of the phone or device and also adjust the lens for a crispy picture, and well it will look really cool . I liked how you painted the inside of the box Black no one else is doing that and it definitely makes a significant difference. Good Job
