Short of dimensional folding - can you describe how you're going to physically fit that into the Pyra? You said it would go in the lid - but to my understanding, the lid is already full. Is the plan to build a hump, side car or other special case piece?
Can you provide actual measurements of the device? I would like to know the board dimensions & thickness, lens diameter and length from the board if convenient.
Measurement in mm
PCB:
30x25x1
(add about 1mm to thickness because of the parts soldered onto it)
Lense:
9x9x5
Overall:
30x25x6,5-7
How to put it into the Pyra:
The LCD-PCB has a hole that is more than 30x25mm. There the Camera PCB will go in.
I do not have a Pyra here to measure how hick the LCD-PCB is. But as there are the LEDs and LCD-Connectors on it I suppose it's at least as thick as the Camera PCB. I don't worry about the thickness. I still can cut the Plastic a little if it's needed.
Then I'll make a hole in the housing where the lens will come out.
The Pandora Plastic is about 2-3mm thick so I suppose the lens will stand out a little.
That is not a problem as I have a defective HTC DesireZ. I'll take the camera protective glass and put it around the lens.
What will be harder then fitting the Camera inside the lid will be to fit all the wires and the USB-Hub inside the Pyra and get the Wires through the hinge without damaging the LCD-Cable.
I wanted to avoid the procedure of disconnecting the USB-Port from the PCB and build a hub in between.
But it seems as it's unavoidable as cutting only the power wires isn't enough to make the USB-Port usable when soldered directly.
Any tiny USB 2.0 hub PCB with one input and 2 output is welcome.
