James West<\/a>‘s son is a big Doctor Who fan. So, his dad decided to build him a classic series-inspired K9 toy. He purchased some acrylic sheets and some other material and then fitted inside a Raspberry Pi Zero W with attached Speaker pHAT (to play sound effects with). The robotic part of the build was provided by a CamJam EduKit 3<\/a>. You can read about the build over on his blog<\/a> and see more photos and videos on Flickr<\/a>. He has also uploaded the code to GitHub so you can see a GPIO Zero version of the EduKit 3 code<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
