Think of those rotating wardrobes you see on tv or in rich peoples homes.
Now imagine a DVD rack, built into your wall, holding a couple of hundred DVDs (or videos), using the same rotating technology.
A hole in the wall would allow you to add and remove DVDs, and buttons would control the
direction of rotation.
I really hope this is baked, so i can get one when i move house, but a google search found no results :(
like this, but recessed into a wall?

I don't know what you mean about rotating wardrobes, but is this essntially like revolving paperback / comic book / postcard racks? (see link) |
|
|
a lille bit like that, only electric and wider and on one level. |
|
|
Is there an easy way to post a picture? |
|
|
I am trying to find a link to the wardrobe... |
|
|
Yeah, just put the pic's url in the link box. |
|
|
the pic is on my hard disk... I just drew it... |
|
|
Ah, You need web space on which to put it in order to creat a link to it here. You can't link to unhosted image files. Your ISP may give you free space. |
|
|
See link for a picture... Should clarify a few details. |
|
|
Nope. Still baffled. Please post images as a GIF or JPEG. It's over 500K and WAY to big for such a simple image. |
|
|
I ain't lookin' at no bitmap. |
|
|
so strangers in the street can borrow the cd's on the other side of the wall <g> |
|
|
Go ahead [thumb]. It won't bite. |
|
|
Baked. Sony, Pioneer and others make a 301-disc DVD carousel. No wall mounting required. [link] |
|
|
This is different to the 300 disc dvd changer...
This is a method of shelving DVD's in their cases. |
|
|
I drew the pic in paint, so i could only save as a BMP, but i will work on a smaller file. (edit: see cedar's link instead). |
|
|
Cedar, are you still baffled having looked at the pic? |
|
|
The front view is looking at the wall, with the hole to pick up the discs through. The thin things are DVDs. |
|
|
The top view shows how the carousel rotates... I am not sure i can make it any simpler. |
|
|
The whole unit lives in the wall cavity. |
|
|
Oh... inside their _cases_. Never mentioned that. [Mike]: To save space on the annos, just insert a < br > (without the spaces) to make a carriage return. |

Vertical one for 100 CDs exists: http://www.sharperimage.com/us/en/catalog/productview.jhtml?sku=SI793TNM Sharper Image's "Power Tower Motorized 100-CD Rack with Light". At $150, it isn't cheap. Might need a bit of (manufacturer) tweaking for compatibility with the DVD form factor? |
|
|
I have the 100CD Pioneer changer and a 5DVD changer. However, I would suspect that digital jukeboxes will outrun the need for this pretty soon |
