One of the first popular mass-produced digital cameras was the Game Boy camera, a terrible black and white image sensor stuck inside a highly modified Game Boy cartridge. With a Game Boy, the camera, and the Game Boy printer, it was able to produce low-resolution but still surprisingly usable images. Combine all these parts together with the best of hacker art from vtol and what do you get? The Game Boy Instant Photo Gun.
There aren’t many details for this build, but it looks like this is an uncased Game Boy Brick, a Game Boy camera, and Game Boy Printer assembled into something that looks dangerous and won’t get past a TSA checkpoint. That might be fixed by re-purposing an old NES zapper.
We’ve seen vtol’s work before with a machine that probably doesn’t steal your credit card info, a levitating speaker, and something that doesn’t reference Tarkovsky enough. This build is right up there with the rest of them.
Thanks Itay for the link.
