Iron man holographic Jarvis keyboard Glass print in it finished!

Definitely seems like it will be a lot of work, but if you can pull it off, that is going to be one SWEET display piece

You could try backing the glass with an el sheet instead of LEDs as this will give an even distribution of light just a thought

What about those signs you usually see in restaurant windows that use a pen that when written gives the letters a glow effect, you could make a template and empty the ink from one of the pens into an airbrush.

That way you could just have LEDs embedded in the black side piece tucked away, but would give you a nice edge glow to the clear piece and allow the keys to illuminate.
Just an idea, but that's how I would do it.

Good luck with the build, I expect to see progress pictures.

yes this is what i ment, they ar lighted from the side and the only glow see is at the tekst/picture it self.

today i am going to ask if the local glass cutter can cut it in the shape i want :P

While glass would probably be the most ideal, a polycarbonate plastic would be far cheaper and still very strong. I'd recommend that! Good luck with the project, i look forward to your results

yes i have looked in to that but you will see the scratches mutch faster then glas.

it's a long way from finished but needed to make a cardboard shape what later will be the glass.



the size is 1 on 1 with the movies version

THE glass is ready tomorrow ! I already have à idea for is tekst and signs ON THE glass. By making à sticker template and stick it to THE glass, then sand blast THE glass and pull THE sticker of. THE Guy who cuts THE glass said That THE way to get it like THE picture above.

NOw my question to you guys is.

Can i make this work on a battery ? And is yes what kind of can i USe best? THE leds work on 24v

Send from iPhone sorry for THE bad tekst

Use vikuiti 3M film.

I'm really looking forward to see how this is gonna look in the end.
This keyboard is definitely one of the coolest IM props and I don't think it was ever replicated properly.

And if it ends up looking good, it would be great to see a run of these.

Just a thought.

It would be cool if you could get this to work like in the movie somehow.

i think i can get it to work with all the lights etc but not if i go over it with my hand that it light up :P cause it is cgi what you see

just an idea: cut out the glass screen,then lasercut a black decal that only leaves the lightup part free, and attach that to the back side of the glass screen, and under that a light board. then attach a motion sensor to the top of the board corner of the board, and program the lights to fade in from the left to the right if the motion sensor is activated. this way when you hover your hand from the left to the right, it will do something like in the movie

when i get the glass i can see what is the best to do, what looks and works best

tomorrow the glass is ready, have a long weekend so hope i can make some progress

plexiglass cut



and finaly the glass ! 8mm thick

This is awesome. absolutly amazed with the detail going in.
If you have seen the avengers, you may have a few more possibilities

I saw it 4 times there Were à couple of cool holographic screens and tables

you can send me the pics via pm and i will see what i can do. maybe do it in illustrator to get it into vector format for crisp resizing. im not promising anything tho (also measurements of the glass would help to get it right )

Awesome progress so far.
Looking forward to seeing your further progress

Does the keyboard have to be transparent and show the table beneath? I think that there are firms that could take a SVG file and laser-etch the reverse design in a piece of thick acrylic? Then light it from the side.
If it does not need to be transparent. then just print the black onto some transparent plastic (film for an overhead projector) and light it from the back.

Looks like a really fun project. Now you just need to figure out how to make it functional Glass Multi-Touch Keyboard & Mouse | Uncrate

will send them to you can you pm your own e-mail adress? a vector file is what i need indeed thnks upfront
