I love the sound. It's so distinctive, everyone hearing that sound will stop and watch for new information.

This is so bad ass, I don't even want to look at the price. My dreams of owning one will be immediately shot down. But damn, maybe one day

The only one I have seen in person was at the Zurich airport in 2001. It was mesmerizing to watch as it updated flight statuses. It was a fairly large board.

I ❤love SPLIT-FLAPs. I like them even more when few lines are refreshing at any one time... like in ARRIVAL / DEPARTURE terminals. You deserve a lot of credit to bring this stuff into the future.

I remember them as train station arrival/departures and then as a clocks. Sadly everyone knows that replacing analog device which is costly to manufacture/assemble by electronic device with barely any moving parts makes sense economically. Like Cassette recorder, Floppies, CD-ROM by memory cards or USB flash drives, analog clock by digital ones (except they remained to show social status), and these boards by LEDs. One Flip-flap can be replaced by 5x7 large LED which cost like 5$ total for one letter. I remember that departure boards were/still are printed at smaller stations with like 50 to 100 trains per day and main train station had departures printed on large format paper wrapped around cylinders in wooden boxes that could be rotated by hand with late trains being announced by a local radio. (Passenger train number 4361 will be 45 minutes late. The expected delay is subject to change). Later this was digitalized and broken into parts recorded independently so it became Passenger train number - 4 - 3 - 6 - 1 - will be - 4 - 5 - minutes - late

This is literally better made than an apple ad!

Watching the board in slow motion, the numbers and characters are interspersed amongst the alphabet letters. Is there a reason that you chose to do that, or would I be right in thinking it is for aesthetics?

Absolutely magnificent. Computer animated simulations are not like the real thing. Nice work, guys. Wish I could afford one! 😆

Sick!!! You guys rock!

Awesome work, duddies!

I'm old enough to remember them at London railway stations. I know they got usurped by dot matrix displays and flat panel TVs, but it doesn't make these types of displays any less cool.

Looks cool

Very cool!

i need one for my room, so i can use it as a physical API thing for my coding projects to mess with

This would make an amazing project kit. I'd love to buy one as just parts, instructions and software and put it together

That sound❤️

You guys do the work of the gods. ❤ I love this so much

They just put one in the new Queen's Food Hall in the Toronto Eaton Centre. It's the coolest thing in the whole mall, I could not stop watching it!

if I ever open a brewery, this will be the menu.

Suggestion: a dramatic roll for something like, “the winner is… (team name)”

pretty good

I’m a software engineer and former nuclear technician. I wanna work here. This would be so fun to build.

So very very cool!

I want one so bad… would be so cool to put my game visits up onto it and hear it tick every so often…

That was one of the highlights of a visit to the airport for me. Flat screen TVs are so boring...

Here from Chris Ramsay. WERE DO I BUY ONE!!

I found out about this because of Chris Ramsay and i am glad it did

I wonder if it would be possible to link it to the local airport's departures/arrivals and have it mirror their (undoubtedly generic flat panel TV) boards in real time.

Wow

This flip flap, must be expensive! Chris Ramsay bring me here !

now someone needs to connect this to an old computer and use this as the display

Do ship to philippines like lazada or shoppee?

This is the good stuff.

You tell me how to make these bad boys and i'll 3D print the plastic and shop the metal and wood and do it all myself!!

Split flaps can be used to make a kinetic monitors

What are the dimensions of the unit and size of the letters? I’m comparing it to the Vestboard, and considering one for the home as an art piece.

Can it be made as a 4 module for an affordable clock for home?

I want a 2x10 version

I have a feeling this aren't cheap.

Are these rotating always the same way or can they reverse?

I do not need a custom-made split flap display. I simply want the one in this video. How much is it?

If someone asked me what defined my generation I'd say The Age of Michaels (Sports and Entertainment, The 90s) and Split Flaps. Imagine having one of these at a coffee shop inside a modern airport terminal…

is it able to be used as a linux terminal

May i know the song 😍😍 coool stuffs bere !!!

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

...I want one for my new home..

I wonder what such a thing will cost for the home. Like in Vestaboard size. Likely too expensive for a normal guy like me. I'd not mind to spend USD 2000-3000 but USD 10000+ would definitely be too much for a fun gadget like this - though It's really cool :O

Here from Nelson Dellis

"we build cool stuff" is such a damn motto, I love it and I love what you make

Chris Ramsay brought me here 😁

Everything reminds me of her.

Please do a collab with Slow Mo Guys. I want to see this thing operate through a 50,000 FPS lens, hah.

I think they're cool, but there aren't many around. It's just cheaper for airports, train stations, etc., to mount a flat screen TV. They're so cheap these days, they don't even care if they break.

What about just the flip-dot kind?

Awesome work ! What's the price?

*tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk - that clack noise!!!

At 1:00 1:09 1:11 YOU GOT ME ANGRY! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

OK, which one of you work for vestaboard?

How dare you make something cool that I can't buy

Where can I buy this? I want this.

0:50 There wasn't any time to read all that!

>made in Philadelphia Are you TRYING to make me lament the removal of the flap board from 30th St. Station?

make and family feud software for this!

Anyone know the price?

Have an idea for a Split Flap? Let us know!!!

How much is one the size of Christmas Ramsay's worth? Cause I want one

Hi i need one for my resto bar in india could i know the price and how the shipping installation works. Message privately for contact info

Surprised no one mentioned the split-second trans flag. It's neat.

I want 8 split flaps only numbers

ohoooooooohhg.

I This can outmode chalkboards permanently No More Dust

I really like this thing but... the price is VERY VERY VERY expensive.......

I want to make one, but not this complexed

Damn hipsters

can we play fnf in split splat display?

Can it run DOOM?

A lot of people make cool things on KZfaq. Why should I spend my time on your channel? What's your unique angle?

Send me one pls 😂

Cf

Remember no Russian

Split flap displays are cool. You didn't have to go all modern advertising nonsense to prove it.

its not analog tech, its controlled by a smartphone lol . lies.
