====== Infobeamer on 38C3 ======

We have one device for each lecture hall. In addition, we run two more devices and a new additional homegrown digital signage system to present content on the various displays located elsewhere in CCH.

===== Running your own =====

We allow attendees and other interested persons to run their own info-beamer pis to show information about stuff happening at their assembly/location. **C3VOC can not provide you with a display nor a raspberry pi.**

If you want to run a pi, please follow these instructions:
  - Get a monitor (atleast 1920x1080), a raspberry pi (atleast 2B), a matching SD card (atleast 4GB) and a matching power supply
  - Download the info-beamer install image
    * [[https://infobeamer.c3voc.de/static/install.img.gz|install.img.gz (Gzipped Disk Image, 64MB)]] - SHA256 `804c82b12ee11ed6e93e4c0c58052737a03b76b23684fac8a32166688236c7cc`
    * [[https://infobeamer.c3voc.de/static/install.img|install.img (Disk Image, 72MB)]] - SHA256 `d37b1b2a9cf3d9d1a3d77dd67b5a5eb59882c0d2f5d9601bc8e7340230dfb62f`
  - Flash the `.img` to the sd card (unzipping it first if needed)
    * The image will only use wired ethernet. [[https://info-beamer.com/doc/device-configuration#wificonfiguration|If you require WiFi connectivity, please configure that according to the info-beamer documentation.]]
  - Insert the SD card into the raspberry pi, connect monitor and ethernet cable, then connect power to the pi.
  - The device will now boot up, initialize the sd card and get added to our account.
  - **Wait until the screen shows a test card and your devices serial number**
  - Contact us using our [[https://chat.hackint.org/?join=infobeamer|IRC Channel #infobeamer on irc.hackint.org]] (also [[https://www.hackint.org/transport/matrix|bridged to matrix]]) or #info-beamer on the cccv rocketchat instance. We will need the following information
    * Contact information (DECT/E-Mail/Matrix preferred)
    * Device serial number as shown on screen
    * Name of your assembly/room/whatever (or UUID, if you know it) - Please explicitely tell us if you don't want your device assigned to an assembly
    * **Do not use E-Mail to contact us. Do not query people hanging out in IRC.**
  - An operator will configure the device according to your request. Please stay in IRC until your request has been acknowledged.

We kindly request that you format the SD card after congress. All information about your device, including contact details, will get deleted from our account no later than 2025-01-06 23:59 CET.
