Re: How to monitor an iPad ?

Yes a raspberry Pi would be a great idea… I wonder if some device already exists to do this, kind of a standalone sensor.
Pretty hard to find on google something using "HDMI" and "monitor" as keywords… ;-)

Re: How to monitor an iPad ?

Hmm it's very weird part of my post didn't go through.. So we're talking here about iPads used for display only, used in retail stores, embedded in furniture. There's no human interaction of any kind. The idea I had was to hook up an Apple Lighting to HDMI adapter, and monitor the actual HDMI signal...

How to monitor an iPad ?

Hi there,

I'm looking for ideas on how to monitor non-jailbroken iPads.

I could do a check_ping

How about video out? Have you heard of ways to monitor an HDMI port?

Any hints?
