Question

I'm having a play at using an iPad as a DMD (for no other reason than just having a go)....
The Duet display server on the PC and the Duet app on the iPad, work together to seamlessly to extend the windows desktop to the iPad (it really is brilliant). The iPad's inbuilt ‘Guided Access’ allows Duet to maintain focus (even from sleep). So my thought is that maybe this is a workable option for those with older iPads that they have upgraded from?? (It can't be too old, as iOS7 is a minimum requirement for Duet)
Scale might be an issue for full size cabs though, as an iPad Mini is way too small and a regular iPad is a bit too small. An iPad Pro is perfect! But who has old iPad Pros just laying around that they could commit to a cab? The regular iPad would probably be perfect for a mini-cab build though.
The only other problem I foresee, is whether it would wake from sleep with the cab booting, or whether it would require some direct input at the iPad? This I will test today.
This is one of my scale tests using the iPad Pro...
