Kiosks and Digital Signage are pretty common sights at conferences, grocery stores, airports, and, well, just about everywhere! I was recently given the challenge to make a digital sign for a local non-profit organization using simple easy to come by components. In this video I will walk you though the very simple process of creating a digital sign for setting on a table at a public event to help provide awareness about your organization. This project used an old Raspberry Pi 3B+ a used DVI monitor from a thrift shop and a few parts I had on hand.
