POV Projector
With this you can project you POV's image onto a wall, ceiling, or pretty much anything!
It cost me nothing, it isn't very sturdy, but it does do what it is supposed to do.

Cut the Cardboard
cut the cardboard to 2 pieces about 9x3 inches.
you may need to cut your's to different lengths depending on the lenses or you POV. so just try focusing the pov and lense w/o the cardboard first.

a hole for the serial port (*if you're using the Mini POV 3) in the cardboard, so that the LED's are in focus
