Thank you all for watching and clicking and everything else. It's insane to get to do this full time. I'll continue to try and upload faster without making watered down content. Sorry this took three months! You uploaf nerd
To summarize, this vid is me building a PC setup with every aspect of it appearing invisible.
- The mouse is a 0g hyper lightweight (max gigafart insane) invisible gaming mouse that uses a depth sensing intel realsense 435i to translate my hand and finger movements into cursor actions in windows.
- The keyboard is flush mounted with the desk surface and has a plastic mold that perfectly fills the space between the keys, and then is painted
- The monitor uses a nano particle film to appear as though it's a floating hologram
- The whole assembly is wireless, no seriously see 10:22
- There's a lot of small details I had to leave out, like how exactly the PC fits and various connectivity things. If you comment your questions I may see it and respond!

You officially have the cleanest PC setup on the Internet. Congratulations man!
The idea of projecting the screen and reflect by mirror onto the thin film is brilliant. Simple but effective
This should go viral. A cleaner setup is impossible
It is possible. I think a folding monitor that has transparent mounting would be more 'invisible' because in day time this has a clear screen you would obviously see, not to mention the nylon fishing line holding it. With something that folds away, its just a clean desk until you use it, and when you use it, in theory the only thing you could see would be the monitor and desk, day or night - that and the visual experience would be far superior to this setup which looks like it would burn your retinas in a few minutes.
I think the moniter is fine. The desk could still be removed from the equation though.
Ar glasses instead of a screen or monitor
Cleaner setup: invisible table and invisible chairs
@@ahmedhimmi532 you can go cleaner 😳. AR contacts. AR eye implants. Keyboard built into your fingers. VR nuerostimulator with you sitting in an empty room 😶
All my life, since the first one hit the market, I've thought standing desks were dumb and a fad. Now, many years later, I'm an adult with aches and pains and I want one 😂
Buddy called out my two all-time favorite youtubers in a single vid, then up-staged them both. Now I have 3 all-time favorites. Outstanding. I subbed.

You deserve that extra slice of cheese. You're a big boy and you did a thing
Amazing
This is what people in the 80's thought technology would be in 2023.
love it man thats like the best gaming setup i have ever seen dont let any one take you down keep it up!
I'm saying this with 100% honesty I have watched countless build videos or various projects on KZhead. And this blows them all out of the water. This is singlehandedly the best project video on KZhead

I really hope LTT and other tech youtubers give this the credit and signal boost it deserves for being absolutely insane
this is legitimately the single most impressive thing ive witnessed in the pc community
He doesn't need the likes of LTT. He is a star already, in a galaxy of his own, that's why we watch his magic show.
homeless has already gotten a few shoutouts from LTT so im sure theyll give him another ne for this one
Got a shoutout from the recent WAN Show so yeah it's getting boosted.
Here because of said WAN Show shout-out :D
This is the best most unique and fun tech video I've watched in years man I love this it reminded me of why we love tech and building stuff ❤
Straight up...got my sub for your sheer ingenuity of application & proofs of concepts!
I think it's insane how one guy at his house with a router and patience was capable of just dunking on all the clean set ups and single-handedly wrote software for mouse hand tracking. You take something that seems inconceivable and just create it for our entertainment. Bravo man you never fail to be outstanding.
you know that he used chatgpt right?
@@samik_456 if you think chatgpt writes working code right away, it means you've never tried building something with it. It takes a lot of iterations, and your own understanding of what's going on, to make it work in the end. But yes, it definitely makes it faster and helps you learn.
Of course he used ChatGPT lmfao. Have you ever talked with a software dev? Guess what we used before ChatGPT? Google. And before that? Books. We always use resources available to us, that’s what makes us engineers. No one is doing this shit offline in their head.
@@samik_456 It doesn't do it all for you, even if you try and make something as simple as a tic tac toe game in python with it, it breaks. It might be better now knowing it learns but I wanted to see how well it codes and let's just say, it doesn't do that well. It'll get most of the annoying stuff done fine but the simple stuff it somehow messes up.
@@samik_456 maybe not single handedly but still very impressive. I think an engineer would be dumber to not use chatgpt right now
The fact that he managed to remove even that last cable, that was the plot twist of a century and made it even more impressive. Massive kudos
Not really. He just used a battery from that laptop.
@@DJNebaJS which means there is room for wireless charging capability that can be added and become completely wireless 😅
@@mahee96 Don’t wireless chargers also have a cable? (I’m not very knowledgeable lol)
@@hviviench yeah but you can remove that by charging the wireless charger with another wireless charger
@@hviviench if you really considered "true" wireless, then the only thing that even came remotely close to was the "tesla coil" or toroidal transformer that produced true wireless energy transfer even up to miles and miles away. But this technology was suppressed and killed in its infancy due to same old politics and fear of adapting the new (many feared Nikola tesla played GOD himself). So I think, as you pointed out we still have a long way to go 😅
First time watching one of your videos! Everything about this was amazing haha what a great story teller.
4:20 hes having his villain ark. what have you done misses grooms, Huh?!
fr bruh fr
people don’t give this man enough credit for what he does. the creativity, effort and just pure genius is insane. all while making a funny haha video for us to enjoy
the first 3 times i read it as "please dont give this man enough credit for what he does" lmao
Yeah he makes a lot of jokes and puts on this persona like he's a simpleton and it's all simple. But in reality, the guy is incredibly good at this stuff. All wrapped in such an entertaining package. Some people are fantastic at engineering or building cool stuff. But it turns out to be a boring and overly sanitary feeling video. Not many people can tackle these impressive projects and make it so interesting to watch. The man could make anything worth watching lol.

This isn’t just a KZhead video about an invisible pc setup, this is art. Pure art.
'i mean this is art, mister White, this is pure glass'
He could code that with a satellite 📡 then do it anywhere with gps trackers he would be flying and operating his vehicle while moving around in his bedroom. Park. Drive. Lol
DIY perks made this first BH is just copying it and saying that he made the first which is a lie
yes art, I hope no one in his family destroys it. if you found this well you waisted time lol now you are wasting time.
its science and dedication too.
Randomly found this video and this channel, this was actually an incredible video. Im very impressed with this video! Great job!
This is futuristic!! You’re so creative ❤
Okay, that floating hologram screen has to be the coolest thing I have ever seen. It looks like actual magic. I am in love with it.
Yeh same! I was totally expecting that part in particular to be clickbait, but I'm so glad it wasn't and that solution is really simple and clever!
He needs to make a video going more into detail!
Damn, that's gotta be the cleanest setup now, like really tho :D that projector is freaking genius Btw, I don't know where mine has gone! Invisible PCs are way too easy to lose.
Baha was waiting for your reaction to this
Hahaha dude I’ll have to be careful not to misplace mine! Thanks for the inspiration btw couldn’t have done it without ya 😆
bruh
Collab when?
I knew you’d be here!
first video of yours I watched... had me smiling and laughing the whole time! wrapped up with a heartfelt message. great job man, you inspired me!
Good job that is soo cool and I didn't think we had the tech to do that and here you are proving me wrong love your channel and hope to see you do more stuff like this
I'm proud that this isn't even remotely clickbait when he said Invisible PC. I think it's safe to say that ALL invisible PC setups on KZhead meant hiding the PC in the desk, or having a mechanism that tucks away the monitor. This one is truly the only one that screams invisible setup. I'm also happy that you made the compromise to still use a physical keyboard for this build.
That's really what street magic is.
He literally hid the PC in the desk.......
@@Vambium lmao 😂
i mean, he put the pc in the desk..
@@Vambium well, he said "invisible" PC, not "PC-less" PC, hiding it in the desk means you can't see it, therefore it is indeed "invisible"
I still can’t believe how badass the monitor part of this build is. Like its actually floating and you cant convince me otherwise
I thought it was only me Really bro where did he hang that glass
@@st1nkypoofart you can see the wires in some shots where it's hung from the ceiling
I've been doing a lot of looking into the Pepper's Ghost effect and applications, which is very similar to this, and is ultra cool. Definitely more like a standard rear projection setup, but very neat.
its nano particle aka flexible plexiglass for 40 dollars if you want to build it it cost 40 bucks plus projector just use a monitor 1 mirror reflection after reflection you have your invisble monitor. -King beez king of the bee hives
Incredible storytelling! Epic setup!
Congrats man!

Nick plays a funny, likeable, dummy but in reality, I feel like the extent of his genius is unmapped. The amount of time, effort, and sheer will that went into the making of something that blew literally any other build a mile out of the water, all while making an entertaining, trackable, video is something that's very difficult to say anyone else could do. Human beings are really something, especially this one. We need to celebrate creativity and the idea of engineering dreams into fruition.
THIS! Exactly what I thought when I saw this build. Like, the Thanksgiving meal cooked in a PC is fun and all. But this was on another level. I think there is Much more, smart stuff up there, in Mr. Homeless's head!^^
The mix of his initiative, creativity, knowledge, and not to mention the fact that in this video alone, he showcases insane software and technical engineering is absolutely beyond me. It may be part of the channel for him to downplay himself but I want it known this man is a genius.
It's like his mouth, just, can't, but his mind CAN!

just cleanest, not greatest at all. A build like that is not really very usable. You can see there's a lot of input lag with the mouse without mentioning is sucks to click without feeling the clicking, the colors of the screen look bland, the keyboard is the only thing that's ok though personally I don't think that's very confortable compared to a regular keyboard. It's a work of art more than anything.

Really wish I could see a close up of the keyboard and how it works
Same and with the monitor too
same
It works like a keyboard, but it's flush with the desk
It's invisibile
From what I could gather, it uses a mechanical keyboard as the base, but the top layer of thin plastic is more akin to a membrane keyboard, with squishy elastic keys.
