ComputerCraft Figurine Raspberry Pie

[OrangeHatKidd]

I just noticed that dan200 sells little 3D printed turtle figurines and I had the amazing idea to put a raspberry pie in it. Has anyone done anything like this before? Also It would be nice if the turtles were a tiny bit hollow. Would a raspberry pie actually fit inside of it? I've had very little experience with them xD

you should suggest this idea to dan, he might actually change the figures so a pi would fit in it

Good idea! and yeah you can see how much I mess with them by the way i spelled pi xD

Two seconds looking at the 3D model and the website and I was able to see why this won't work:

1. They're made of sandstone.
2. They're about an inch cubed.

Ahh that's too bad. I couldn't seem to find dimensions, but then again I wasn't really looking.

Just to clear this out (I'm not familiar with such things)
What could you do with this then?

 

[OrangeHatKidd]

Well a raspberry pi is a tiny tiny computer and if you could put in a turtle like that you could totally run lua in real. Of course you couldn't get it to move. It would be fun though!

 

[Wekmor]

could it say stuff or what?

 

[OrangeHatKidd]

You might be able to put a tiny display on the back. For it to make sound you'd need a little speaker. depending on the size you could have something that makes 8-bit beeps or even more. At this point it just might be better to make your own turtle chassis and put motors in it so it could run around

 

[Wekmor]

ah ok cool ty

 

[heethoofd27]

That would actually be really cool if that would work especially with a tiny display and little speakers that would be so cute

this would be awesome I may actually try something like this out I have the motors :3 Thanks for the idea dude

 

[OrangeHatKidd]

Awesome! Good luck man!
