What ’s even more unnerving thanan artificially levelheaded Big Mouth Billy Basstelling you about the weather ? That ’s easy . It ’s an artificially intelligent animatronic skull telling you about the conditions through a set of gabble teeth . The roving eyeballs are the creepy part .
To be a bit more specific , the answer is Project Yorick , a three - axis skull kit that ’s been programmed to forge with Amazon ’s personal helper , Alexa . You just ask Alexa a question , and the smart - eyed skull answers back .
It ’s not the well-situated nag in the world , but Mike McGurin , the maven behind Project Yorick , did put up details about how to build the whole solidification upin a blog post . You ’ll involve a Raspberry Pi , a three - bloc skull kit , a crowd of other ironware , and a ton of free clip to draw it off .
Better get started now . Halloween ’s only seven month away !
