My Short List Of PSP Mods That I Have Brainstormed. :) As Far As I'm Aware Have Not Been Executed.
Self Charging PSP - Everyone See http://www.gcsescience.com/pme23.htm (http://www.gcsescience.com/pme23.htm) for how the concept would work.
The SonBox - Sony PSP Wireless To A Xbox / 360 Controller
Water Pumping Round The PSP - Maybe To Be Set Up To BE Watercooling (Mainly Just To Look Wicked)
Built In Fingerprint Scanner - PSP Only Powers Up Once Finger Has Been Applied To Scanner
Self Heating / Cooling PSP - When Its Hot The PSP Cools, When Its Cold It Warms Up - Nice On The Fingers That Way.
Voice Activated PSP
DVD Playing PSP - Straight From Disc
PSX PSP - PSP Which Plays PSX Discs
Waterproof PSP - Always Wanted To Play In The Shower...
Any Feedback? Please Let Me Know :)
If It's Any Good I May Try To Execute A Few Of These...
Thanks!
-
if you could do any i would seriously be suprised but my favs out of the list would be
- self heating/cooling
- waterproof psp
waterproof wouldnt be that hard, all you would have to do, is find a way to seal ALL edges so the water couldnt get in
but for the heating/cooling, would be like watercooling, hard as hell to fit in but would be :censored: ing awesome if you could get it to work
-
Ok Thanks For The Feedback :) I Quite Like The Waterproof One Too
-
Waterproof one is klass but it aint gonna work!! :(
finger scanner would be cool too. Easy to do but expensive.
Very good imagination though.
-
Cheers :)
If There's Enough Interest In The Waterproofing Then I Will Make It Work, Emphasis on "I WILL"
-
psx games straight from disc

Self charging would be cool -but i dont understand how it owuld work lol
water pumping would look wicked :P
Fingerprint scanner would be a funky touch =P
and i need a waterproof :P ... jsut so i could play underwater XD .... so do that first ... empahsis on the DO =P

Self charging would have a transformer in it which would be powered by the battery, as the transformer spins, it would create friction (power) :)
Water proofing would be a very fun mod to do, but dangerous until i get it right :) Would need to buy a busted psp...
And Water Pumping Would Be By Far My Favourite Mod To Do, Green Tubes And Stuff In The Water So It Is Easy To Tell That The Water Is Moving XD
-
haha, this is cool, water proofing. Forget playing in the shower, hop in the pool and play!
-
waterproof ftw.. i play in bath with my psp anyway (luckily have been safe until now), but if it would be waterproof, i would have no probs playing.
also self recharging - maybe with sun batteries?
fingerproof and psx/divx reading are also kewl

I was considering solar panels for the Self charging PSP, but it wouldnt work in all situations. where as a transformer would always work, Everyone See http://www.gcsescience.com/pme23.htm (http://www.gcsescience.com/pme23.htm) for how the concept would work.

I'm Going To Have A Go At The Water Pump One First, Need To Gather Some Money For A New PSP Though... :)
Still Let Me Know Feedback On The Other Mods...
-
waterproofing would be a great mod after the water pumping.
Both are great.
i don't know if you have started the water pumping or have a plan on pumping it but their are very small motors that can pump the water around with no trouble and use little power i cant find them again i think they were at and air condition supply place. they were cheap too i was going to use them for a case i was building for my computer but i spent the money on a graphics card so my case never was finished.
you may be able to add the self recharging mod to this too. water flows ,spindle spins, friction created, power.
-
not a bad brain storming sesh, but you need to get playing with parts and see what you can come up with.

Cool, If You Remember The Name Of That Site, Please Let Me Know :)

great list of posible mods some have potential to make it though seriously i would be worried having water running in the psp as one minor leak could kill the whole console...but some great ideas gud luck on trying em. If you do get some of em working i will be sure to try em out. Good work :#1: :yess:
-
Hmm i like the idea of a self powered PSP.
Though i don't understand how you think you would make it work.
I really much understand the physics of a transformer, but i don't understand what it has to do whit this mod.
First of, you know the size of a transformer?
Second, you know the heat generated from a transformer?
Third, you know that you need AC power in on the transformer to get anything out?

The Transformer Was Just A Suggestion For The Power, Just Something To Small And Friction Creating Will Work...

you could gut one of thos shaker flashlights or a crank radio
-
I Could, But That Takes Effort.
I'm Lazy.
-
then none of these mods are going to come to fruition unless some one else tackles them huh?

Pump - A Very Thin Pump From Ebay.com (UK - Nothing There) Will Post Picture Shortly...
CPU Block - Not Yet Purchased (Can't Decide Whether To Buy One As It Most Probably Will Not fit In).
-
youll need something to cool the wifi card the cpu is fine, its olny that that gets hot.
-
Ok Thanks, This Mod Isn't Particularly Designed To Cool The PSP, Just To Look Cool. If I Can Figure Out A Way To Fit It All In. I Will, If Not Then It Will Just Look Cool.

I don't think you understand the concept of energy, "Energy is converted from one form to another, but it is never created or destroyed." Where would you get the power from, a magical moving ball inside a casing? You could buy a kinetic power supply, but then you would have to sake your psp to charge it... i think your to lacy to shake it for 4hours none stop, to get 30min playtime. none the less it would be hard to fit the kinetic psu
Other option could be to capture the heat of your hands... you wont be able to get a small enough PSU into the psp, and the capturing module would look ugly and bulky on the psp. and the problem is, that you might get 5 min more play time out of 2hours playing...
You do need to charge your PSP, or els everyone would get free electric power the rest of their life, the only thing that would work is an external solar charger, that would be just as time consuming to do as to use the regular charger, and even slower charging, and you would only be able to do it on a sunny day with clear skies...
If you have some magical way to create power, tell me i want free power!!!
Els abandon that mod
-
PSP + waterproof = sweet....
Imagine playing it underwater at a pool!

True man it would take too much room to even do that mod and wouldnt even make much of a diff. it was a great idea if it could be done.
-
i like the idea of a crank powered psp charge method i think ill tackle it someday and waterproof it too it would be like the rugged psp or something. sick ideas. would also have to make it camo lol.
-
cranking it would be bulky and a pain i whould not like it. too chessy
water prof on the other hand i love the idea. he should just make a soft silcon covering .
-
maybe you could get some kind of water sealant and cover the psp parts in it :dntknw:
-
it will go under water but you cant use it.
-
PSP + clear plastic bag with waterproof lid = waterproof
any other way would be to risky, you could brush silicone on all the electric parts, but the charging would be a mess, not to mention the battery.
waterproofing the case would be to risky IMO, and it could end up looking horrible.
good luck i suppose
-
ive seen at a electronics, robotics, packaging, and medical expo a company that applied a coting of some type (i cant remember what it was might have been Teflon) to PCB's the could control the thickness of what they applied to the number of atoms and what it did was basically water proof the electronics. they had a little lcd display siting in a tank of water running ads on it at there display. but what they mainly did was coat medical electronics that would have to be put in side people. they also did it for electronics that were exposed to adverse weather conditions so that they would not corrode. ill see if i cant fined the brochure i got from them
-
to Me all of that looks to be waiting on the USBHosts program to grow, alot of what you have there looks to be a matter of having the PSP control another device...
-
There is loads of views on this! i think the title has been misinterperated. try be more specific next time...
-
ya now that you mention that their is a product like tethlon used for electrical made to waterproof electronics i remeber seeing it at one of the conventions last year. I think i seen it at one of the constuction ones or it could of been the home show. Man i was going to go to CES this year but i couldnt get in touch cousins girlfriend. her mom work at the convention center i get to go in to show free all the time. bumber
-
it will go under water but you cant use it.
the point is waterproof :rofl:

just think of all the noob's believing he will actually fit a dvd tray on the psp and make it work. The PSP does not even know how to playback dvd formated movies. And about the psx gamez, you know you have to convert them to eboot's right?
a tip to PSPotential, not everything works by just applying duct-tape

DUDE! I'm Just Brainstorming Ideas! Get Off My Back! These Are Only Things That I Have Thought Up.
And By The Way All - PSP Water Pumping - In Progress!
Do You Know How Tough The Tubing Is? And I Will Be Gluing The Tubing To The Pump... Duhh!

1. I doubt it'll work
2.that may take alot of work/experience
3.the psp does not get that hot(even if it does just cut the umd door and put a cpu fan)
4.again alot of work and experience
5.the psp doesn't get that hot or cold
6.again you'll need exp and patience
7.WHY???
8.have you heard of CFW???
9.Not practicle (how much time do you really spend in the shower :nono:
-
I know a awesome solution instead of a transformer....solar power...you could put the panels on the top psp where the L and R is. It obviously won't work at night though lol. I could maybe photo shop what I mean...yea, I'll post it in a second. I don't know the technical parts to it though because I haven't done any mods to my psp aside from firmware.
here is my concept of where the panels could go

Hey there!
Gathering free energy to charge the PSP some kind of cool idea :)
Well, there are to types that probably would do work:
1. the easiest one is some mixture of orgon gathering and "frequency catching"
here the principle:
take a isolated metal square as a + pole and connect it with a ground. you'll get some current out of it.
why?
I think mostly through electro magnetic waves coming from devices. But maybe also some orgonic thing is behind this. cause the isolater-metal combination is also used in orgon-accumulators to gather orgon energy...
2. well ok... don't know how to build this one ;)
but I saw something that was driven by an static magnet.
Could work something like this:
get 1 spoil and 1 condensator. just connect them, so they will charge each other alternatingly (well, suppose that there will be losses)
now put a magnet on the spoil, so you hype the magnetic field produced from the spoil and get more current out of it, when breaking down.
This round it would work (maybe just produced by some kind of lorentz force), but I don't know what will happen the next round charging the spoil and building up a magnetic field. how much influence does the magnet has? etc...
Also on the vid I saw some kind of magnet driven cuircut it got really shaky after some time...
next and important question: how much does the psp battery rely on stable, static voltage/current input?
what happens when you charge it with 2V instead of 5V?
well, the current wouldn't take much impact I think...
well, with the first method you wouldn't get that much out of it, that you could play non stop I think. But just put it somewhere while sleeping and it's kind of recharged would be great :)
and in the backplate behind the umd door there would be enough space to put such an isolated plate for energy gathering...
so... ok
does anyone know how to stabilize this voltage?
I just thought of some kind of condensator charging and through that charge the battery...
but I'm not that good in electrical engineering...
hope for good ideas :)
bye

All those ideas sound awesome.
Wish they would actually happen though. o.O
-
defenitly the biometric scanner. and if you could make it auto power on after the correct print was scanned that would be sweet. leave the power/ hold switch to do more important tasks
-
An air transformer could charge the PSP, also using radio waves that are cooking us from cell phones to AM-FM radio broadcasts... There is also a natural occurring frequency coming from everywhere, but... Anyway, just like RFID scanners and stuff, the air transformer can charge the PSP just by being near a high frequency power source and the circuit is very simple and easily found on the web. Cool ideas, would be nice to see them implemented...
-
wow,
uber bumperage
please don't bump old topics, mainly @ skyscraper
look at the year, lol 2008 not 2009
-
I'm liking the ideas.
The water pumping sounds awesome, and maybe use a small deal of oil and water so that its easier to see.
I also have been working on a way to get the PSP to self charge, I am using a slightly different approach. If I can get it working I'll write a Tutorial on it. if not then it becomes vapor wear lol
Kudos for all the nifty Ideas :hifive:

That sucks the quality and the price for that water proofing just doesn't work to well. There is hardly a guarantee that it will even work lol.
