MP3 player to insert into your Cassette player
posted by Nicolas38 on 2 October 2007 14:50 Go to the market place Go to forum
Problem context :
Re-use your cassette player without mixing multiple tools (adapter, MP3 player).
Proposed Solution :
Build a tape adapter that include a MP3 player (1 or 2 Go of memory would be enough) . The usb connection is included in the pseudo-tape, to make connection with your PC easy. It also includes a remote control, especially to use in a car .

Ive been wondering why there isnt such a product on the market yet. Most of the people i know still have a cassette player in their cars. This would be ideal. Since there is no need for any powersource (the player still tries to "play " the cassette, use this rotation to power the device) Great thinking Nicolas!] Would it supply enough power?
Use the player rotation engine to load the MP3 player battery ?

An idea to investigate technically: use the rotation managed by the cassette player to charge the batteries. The MP3 player would therefore become autonomous.

I worked at Circuit City for about six years and at one point we carried just such an item. I think it only had around 512 MB of memory. It had no screen or any way of selecting the music. It came and went very fast but I remember thinking how innovative it was, and yet what a small market it would have and always getting smaller.
