Ive been working on this project for nearly half a year on and off, experimenting with different setups and softwares and streaming most of it live here on YouTube. There seems to be a lot of interest from various people so I put together a quick video on how you can build one too.

I had a ton of fun making this thing! Its awesome to see the results so far.

You may also need:

Machine screws

USB Cables of varying sizes, if you need one longer than a few feet get a powered cable.
A laptop, mini-pc, or Raspberry Pi
