Cyberdeck Project

After seeing some posts about cyberdecks on various social media platforms, I was inspired to make my own. The main goal for this build is to be something that is practical enough to actually use in niche situations and to serve as a fun project for me to work on learning some CAD stuff.

The biggest challenge for this build was figuring out how to make it run solely off of a single battery pack, but it ended up just being a case of finding the correct cables and adapters to run both the display and Raspberry Pi. Eventually I want to build my own battery pack, but for now the Anker PowerCore 10400mAh Portable Power Bank I'm running will work fine.

The battery life seems to be around 7 to 8 hours based on the assumption that the lights on the battery pack are an accurate display of the battery life. I ran a stopwatch while the cyberdeck was running, and it took 1 hour and 55 minutes for one of the lights to turn off.
