Android terminals for Visu

[Thomas]

Hi
I'm looking for a solution for an android device placed on a wall.
The device must auto start a browser after boot with the visu webpage opened.
The browser must be seamless and fullscreen.

The solution I've found (and stopped working with the latest firmware) is:

Sibo android terminal ( http://www.sibochina.com.cn/ ) which is perfect (cheap, small, PoE, no battery)
Autostart-noroot utility by Guro Labs https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...tart&hl=en
full!screen tsorn https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...reen&hl=en

My solution was easy. Autostart started full!screen and the default browser. But now the visu requires webrtc and websocket which are not supported by the default browser. Chrome has no fullscreen so this is not a way.

WebSockets are supported by stock Android browser, but only starting from version 4.4

I would like to focus this thread more to a question how other people make wall mounted visu screen devices. I saw the market is very limited. Especially in case you want a device with no battery and with only on wire (PoE).

Hi,

You could look at our U. Motion 7 inch panel MTN6260-0307, this android panel supports HL/SL so also LM and has LAN / PoE connection. (and no wifi), we also have a HL local app to use it for full screen (kiosk) mode.

BR,

Erwin

Chrome has add to home screen feature which should run visualization in full-screen, have you tried using it?

Yes but it can't be started automaticaly. Or at least I haven't found any way how to run the file generated by Chrome on home screen after system start.

There's also a JS API for requesting full-screen in Chrome. But it cannot be run automatically, it requires user input like a button click to be activated.
