This Project is required to produce a working model of a 1950s style Television to be placed within the window of one of the two TV Shops in WMT.

There will be two main elements to the development of this:

1. Design and Development of the electronic hardware and software needed to produce an attractive image or set of images on the Tiny-TV screen.
   1. A suitable display module has already been procured and shall be used for this project.
   2. The display module shall be driven by a Raspberry Pi computer. Two Raspberry Pi Zero W devices are already available and shall be used if practicable.
   3. The Tiny-TV shall be powered by 12 V DC from the WMT Lighting Supply.
   4. Remote access to the Pi shall be provided using the built-in Wi-Fi adaptor in the Raspberry Pi W via the site VPN.
   5. A selection of screen images shall be made available, including, where available:
      1. A BBC Test Pattern.
      2. A scene from a typical 1950s TV program.
      3. Provision for other images should be provided.
2. Packaging of the main electronics and of the 1.5 inch square screen in a realistic TV cabinet.

If possible I’d like to drive more that one display from the RPi.

It is possible, but the how is to be determined.
