This is the new Mazda CX-6E. It comes with a 27" widescreen.Is it possible to convert it into a computer monitor for mobile gaming?
why are cars turning into toddler toys for "adults"
>>108783856>is poor and jealous
>>108783846How would anyone know?It's a chinese market car that wont start delivering in australia until September.
Just connect the panel to a display controller? Jesus Christ what happened to this board
>>108783856They're cheaper to manufacture, and NPCs keep buying them
>2006: nooo you can't have a 3" display it will distract you it's illegal
>>108783846It's already a literal computer monitor, bro.
>>108783846If it's not 500Hz at least I'm not interested.
>>108783888yeah but how do you figure what kind of interface it uses and how do you source an appropriate controller with usable input port? I fucked around with some salvaged parts and made a panel let out the smoke, because I think the controller was 24V
>>108783846I want to puke.
>>108784083came here to post this
In the US, by law, all new cars must have a reverse gear camera. Since the company is already putting a screen in the car, they see it as a way to get rid of as many physical buttons, and the associated wiring, as possible.
>>108783846class action lawsuit for the many accidents that are going to be caused by that big ass screen while driving
>>108783846Cars are so gay in 2026. All thats on the market here are similar looking compact crossovers or homosexual SUVs with giant screens. The hatchback is dead. The sedan is basically dead as well.
>>108785566There is a vehicle on the market that isn't just another bubble looking crossover.
>>108785597Its banned here. Not road worthy.
>>108785699Over here (Germany) it's not banned as much as "uncertifiable" (it's too heavy to be a private vehicle and would mean you'd need a CDL, also something about gay pedestrian safety).Ironically if you are an Arab prince you can get these things with Dubai license plates meant for "transit transportation" and it becomes legal.So with enough money there's a way around everything
I only hope they won't butcher NE
How did they go from god-tier tactile buttons to one giant iPad in a single generation
>>108783856Because it'll eventually break and costs >$5k to fix, while controlling most of the car.This kills the used market.
>>108783846Looks hideous, it isn't even integrated in the dashboard, just a big slab of screen in the middle. And having to look at the screen to select anything to drive because there are no physical controls is stupid.
>>108784823prolly some lvds thing. buy a second hand one, take it apart, notice how it's connected, find some chipset on the pcb and go from there. could probably put a switch somewhere in there.how tf do you expect people here to help you out by just showing a marketing picture of the car interior?
>>108783856zoomers grew upthey're used to netflix and fortnite battlepassesso they'll gladly buy that $15 subscription for the heated seatsfor them, consuming slop is as natural as breathing
>>108788903you're confusing us with soýlennials which are the ones that enabled this clusterfuck and also had actual purchasing power when this started. we're pushing for physical buttons and less ecu fuckery but amerisharts gotta amerishart i guess
>>108785566i'm hoping to get a motorcycle in the future, nowadays cars are jew pods full of gay anti-repair tricks to make you buy new ones
>>108783846It probably has a normal HDMI input.And in a perfect world the car would have a connector for a laptop or phone so the passenger could use it as a screen.But too many drivers would watch TikTok instead of paying attention to the road so we can't have that.
>>108786904BroThe transmission or engine will go out before the screen.
>>108786894as with many things, blame Tesla
>>108785202You also want a screen for the satnav.It's a shame if they remove physical buttons or replace them with that horrible haptic crap.But a car pretty much needs a screen in 2026.
>>108788651well maybe someone dabbled with this and knows what to watch out for, or maybe even has a link to a good resource. for example this is very surface level: https://hackaday.com/2024/05/08/displays-we-love-hacking-lvds-and-edp/for panels themselves I know of https://www.panelook.com/ but where to find the boards?
>>108784083and then they put your smartphone inside the big screen so its all legal
>>108788922Regular normalfag millenials and doomer millenials are very different, these problems go beyond monkey brain level arbitrary age definitions too, zoomer
>>108783861touchscreens are cheaper than physical knobs and buttons
>>108783846>cost of replacement>$14,000
>>108789102just the RAM in that car tablet is more expensive than a dash full of knobs and buttons
>>108783846>hooly fuck i'm destroying this chink's village with my troops get fucke------ AIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE TRUCK-SAMA PLEASE STOP AAAAAIIIIIIIEEEEEEE
>>108789106The insurance pays that, and passes the incrased costs by raising premiums on all the minimum wage shitbox owners.
>>108783846I'm with the boomers on that, it looks fuckin ridiculous.
>>108783846>Break too hard>Something hits the screen>Car becomes completely unusable
>>108783846Enjoy pulling that shit out of your face when you crash or someone else crashes into you. Hope it severs your lower jaw completely off! I hope homeless fucks break into your car just to smash that screen.
Boy does it feel fucking nice to drive a car built in 1999.
>>108783856if only you knew how bad things really are
>>108783846Why is all the shit off to the side I have to side eye to see my speed and stuff instead of slightly looking down 1 degree
>>108789445Got an early 2000s Cadillac deville. Love that car. Leaks a little oil like all northstar engines do but idc. Been learning to wrench so I can keep it on the road. Plan on driving it until the wheels fall off. Keep thinking I should buy another older car while the getting it still good because I can't stand the new iPad mobiles.
>>108785566>The hatchback is dead2026 Prius is amazing though?
>>108790516The 2026 Prius is essentially a 5-door sedan with a liftback.It's not a true hatch.
>>108790532What's the difference?
>>108790544Actual hatchbacks have a full-height roofline.5-door sedans have a sedan roofline (sloped rear). Basically limits the amount of shit you can actually fit in the hatch section vertically since the roofline is sloping down.
>>108783861what a braindead take. bet you're one of those retards that would get a 80 month car loan for a '26 plastic shitbox.
>>108789617It clearly has a HUD
>>108790566>Actual hatchbacksactual hatchbacks are hideously ugly
>>108790596That's not really the point.Hatchbacks are dead, you can say they're ugly all you want, but that doesn't change the reality that they're dead (in the US).
>>108790603Which is good because they're ugly egg shaped monstrosities.
>>108790610I mean, great. But that's not really part of the discussion being had.
>>108790610Then don't own one. There, that wasn't so difficult now is it, retard.
>>108790659less hatchbacks being made means more cars I would like to own being made, so I win.
>>108788930hope you go pre 2020 because they are also going towards there.Fuck you so much, Yamaha. You are the kikest of the 4
>>108789239and who pays that insurance, faggot?>Im paying more for worst shit, so im better than youIm glad they are replacing (You)
>>108788922>>108789093It's almost as if arbitrary generational divides are propagated to keep people infighting rather than questioning who is controlling themSlop consumption is a normoid thing, regardless of generation
>>108789180Wrong.
>>108783856A touch screen is cheaper to manufacture than an instrument cluster.Boomers and genx are still in awe of modern technology thats been mainstream for over twenty years.
>>108790692>It's almost as if arbitrary generational divides are propagated to keep people infighting rather than questioning who is controlling themWell put.
>>108783846>>108783856>he's not able to play games in his carngmi ICEssies :)
>>108783846>spend millions designing the car, have entire research teams testing materials, shapes, layouts for months>fuck, it just slap an ipad onto the dashboard and make it look like some shitty after market mod grandpa didWhy do car designers always do this? I get having a touch scree to save costs and what not. But can't they at least try to integrate the screen into the design?
>>108792987because Mazada are cheap shitty cars. What do you expect lol
>>108786894literal sabotage or literal retardation, no other explanationright when Mazda was getting more motion than usual and praise because they still have physical buttons and other features that the industry has abandoned in favor of slop they ditch it and start making car-shaped appliances like everybody elsevery pleased with my '24 Mazda but for future purchases they can suck my cock I'm going to the other japs, at least I get an objectively better car for the cost of putting up with the things I despise in modern cars
>>108788930>gets crushed by a soccer mom in an f150 fiddling with the touch screen because she can't remember where the heated seat settings are
