Do you miss your old Polaroid instant camera, or your old Gameboy Classic’s black and white camera? So do we, when we feel really nostalgic! In this Instructable, we will show you how to make your own instant camera using a Raspberry Pi, a Pi camera and screen and some electronics and a bunch of cardboard!.
This design was inspired by Phillip Burgess’s tutorial “Instant Camera using Raspberry Pi and Thermal Printer”
We used this camera and a fancy laser cut wood frame for our 2018 Library Lets Loose fundraising event, and are already gearing up for the next! Find out more on the Johnson County Library Foundation website at https://www.jocolibraryfoundation.org/
