If it is from a laptop screen, its probably some form of embedded Displayport (eDP)

Posted

I know the connector is used to connect screens to the main body of the laptop (forget what the board is called).
I have a spare screen lying around and I want to do something with it. Does anyone know the name of the slot and if so is there anything interesting I can get to connect to it. I would like to use it as a second screen but I don't know if there are any adaptors specifically for this.
I've swapped a few laptop screens in the past so I know these are commonplace I just don't know the name.
Any help is appreciated.
