    Default World's Most Pimpt PSP!

    Hi Guys,
    I claim to have the world's most Pimpt out PSP unit!
    The reason for this thread? To see if anyone in the world
    has done better with real world hardware mods (excluding non functional LED lighting mods, etc).


    The world's most Pimpt PSP Challenge! Art 2007.

    Ok folks, here it is! This equipment purpose is to be mounted in an aluminium frame one day
    to form a docking station to turn the PSP into a better equipped computer for my purposes
    while it is docked in the frame, while still being an ordinary PSP when removed from it,
    and therefore able to be replaced if it fails.

    From there, simply swapping a single XLR connector allows the use of different serialy connected
    devices from GPS units to barcode scanners, PC terminal clients, etc.

    The photo above shows two entirely different operational scenarios, the only difference being
    the connection of one different connected device, and the running of a different PSP application
    that makes use of the connected device.

    Common Hardware To Both Operational Scenarios:


    Custom Multi I/O harness (sockets for audio out, microphone in, serial transmit and recieve),
    Custom 0.5 Watt RMS x 2 Channel class D stereo amplifier wired to seperate Communications speakers.
    Tie clasp microphone clamped to mini tripod.
    Custom Pseudo RS232 interface biult into female XLR connector.
    2x 4x AA battery packs for amplifier and serialy connected device (can both run on single 4xAA pack).

    Operational Scenario A Hardware/Software:
    Garmin GPS18PC serial GPS mouse.
    MapThis 0499 beta (Deniska) running under iR Shell 3.6 (Ahman) so the PSP multitasks the MP3 playlist
    and GPS navigation.

    Operational Scenario B Hardware/Software:

    Symbol LS3408ER Rugged Long Range Handheld Barcode scanner for data capture in harsh environments.
    Reads barcodes from as far away as 45 feet, and as close as 4 inches giving it the longest range
    out of any rugged handheld barcode scanner to date.

    Rapid Data V1.4 (Art) Price checking station simulator feature.

    Top that!
    Cheers, Art.

    Some of the "Junk" around it is worth much more than the PSP itself!
    As I said, it's all to be built into an aluminium frame when I'm sure it's complete.

    We're not all 15.
    I'd rather continue making enough money out of this to buy many wii (or whatevers)
    I'm not suggesting everyone else do it.,
    Just showing what would be rarely ever seen for interest sake.

    EDIT,,, what if you could make a $6000 mobile retail device for much cheaper?
    There's a few wii units worth of saving right there.

    LOL :rofl:

    This is mostly full of accesories wich are quite impressive, but pimped should be like the ones F00 f00 makes at acidmods

    Or a faceplate modified by you like GOW theme psp, with the second analog stick, the umd door jewel, custom theme, etc.

    I would argue that is all junk

    (admittedly, I wrote an app that themes PSPs...)

    i agree with mike jmg. think of a pimped car, it wouldnt have foot pumps hanging off every tyre or something its about design.

    in other words pimped is suposed to look cool, this does not, sorry dude.

    So when it's all neatly biult in an aluminuim frame it'll be different?
    It's pretty much the same electronics right now.

    this is tooooo crazy art, i think you would use one thing at a time correct?

    like the psp is compatible with all the hardware there

    crazy, your psp is such a multi tasking device

    might i suggest a pocket pc?

    anyway pretty crazy but its kind of whacked out to see a psp able to do all those things XD

    but dont you think some things are down right useless? like the store scanner?

    and it will be AMAZING if you get all that stuff cramped into an aluminum case and still be able to carry it around
