For starters i was bidding on the tv not this. (this came with it)
What the hell am i talking about?
A Penguin Books Australia’s ‘Dial-a-Story’
https://www.becausexm.com/great-experiential-marketing-penguin-books-australia-s-dial-a-story/
The electronics are based from this project im guessing
https://github.com/CrazyRobMiles/RaspberryPi-DialTelephone
Principal - Lift handset, plays a message, then user selects using the buttons an that story plays
The electronics is:
A arduino eth mega just for the buttons, then talks via usb to the rasp pi
A usb soundcard for the handset mic an speaker
Totaly love the concept, But want to chance it for christmas
-------------------------------
Now I was Thinking that metal plate that says 'we love stories', replace with a HDMI screen.
Principal - Left handset, A AI Interactive Santa gets displayed, and talks to the kids an responds in a voice chat. (like a normal santa would)
Project for 2026 - of course.
I thought i would put it up here, just incause others thought this weird prop could be what there show needs.
An maybe some help on the AI an graphics side of it..
Well just a Thought.
