Create Your Own Raspberry Pi Interactive Pet

Part of the appeal of the Raspberry Pi lies in how easy it is to get kids involved in programming. Case in point: Geek Gurl Diaries shows you how to create an interactive pixelated pet that feels when you shake it using a Raspberry Pi and a few lines of Python.

The project uses a sensor that detects when you shake it and a tiny LED screen to show the animal. Then you just need to write a program that tells the screen how to behave. It’s a great learning project for both the Pi and Python, plus you’ll end up with an adorable little toy at the end.
