PyCRT

An unoptimized CR beamsweep emulation.

to use

• install all the requirements (pip install -f requirements.txt, in a virtualenv or not, i'm not your dad)
• get an image of your choice in this directory, then replace the image path in crt.py's main function with the name of your image
• if you want, edit the CRTDrawerConfig there too:
  • rgbarray: the image loaded above
  • dim_delay: number of frames between screen dims (int)
  • dim_amount: screen dim amount (int)
  • beam_sweep_amount: number of pixels traversed by the beam in a single update
• run crt.py

todo

• More realtime sweeping
  • Rewrite in a more suitable language, or at least more performant Python
• Actually target pixels with a vector "beam" that can be distorted by emulated fields!
  • like when you hold a magnet up to a real crt
• through the above, or via another way : various fuzzing effects (haha tv go bzz)
