Delight or Terrify Your Friends by Squeezing a Homemade Alexa Into a Plush Raxpin

It’s easy enough to build your own Amazon Echo using your Raspberry Pi , but if you really want to take it a step further, Tinkernut will show you how to connect one of these devices to the Teddy Ruxpin.

This project uses a Raspberry Pi to run the Alexa service and then uses an Arduino to control the bear’s servos. All things considered, it’s actually pretty straightforward to put this thing together, although you’ll need to take apart Ruxpin itself a bit. This is an equally creepy and terrific project, so carry on at the risk of alienating a few of your friends or family members. You will find a complete guide to Tinkernut.
