Halloween is upon us! My kids love to dress up and decorate the house, so a good maker project was needed. These animated eyes from Adafruit run from a Raspberry Pi and have placed behind a 3D printed and then painted mask. The final result is quite unsavoury and will hopefully freak out a few kids and adults alike.
The eyes above are a bit older – you may wish to consider using the newer Adafruit Monster M4sk to do something similar but the Pi is not needed as the M4sk has a Microchip SAMD51 microcontroller attached. The eye code us precompiled, ready for customization in this extensive guide.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
