Hi,

I have a problem I need to solve.
I have a 2x 7 digit display that shows numbers from a external source.
The thing I want is to make my computer read those numbers from the display so I can show them on the screen (remotly later on)

I have no clue how to build this so I'm hoping to get some help here.

The display is 2 of those:

The thougt is to solder some cabels to each pin of the display and then feed it into the computer so it's readable by VB or any other programming language.

If anyone suggest using a webcam, don't. I need the acctual numbers for processing.

Please help!

Regards,
