Introduction: HP Touchpad Forward Camera
Hi Instructables,
I just wanted to show a quick and easy way of taking photos facing forward with the touchpad. Since the touchpad doenst have a camera for taking pics in front of you, I made an attachment to do so.
First, I got a compact mirror from the dollar store and snapped it in half. Then I cut out a piece of cardboard with a slit for the camera. Next fold the cardboard where the mirror will attach. I found some double stick tape for the mirror and the card board. Now complete, I slipped it between the touchpad and cover but not blocking the camera view.
With a few adjustments with the mirror angle, now ready to take pics. Hold the touchpad like a tray and shoot. The pictures come out left is right and right is left. I have not found a photo app to retouch so hopefully someone can take it further.
