Many makers like to integrate Lego into their Raspberry Pi projects, and today we've got a beautiful example to share of such a collaboration. Maker, author and developer Sean McManus is using our favorite SBC to transform a Lego retro radio kit into a working music player that utilizes much of the original hardware for control.
To pull this off, McManus was able to put a full sized Raspberry Pi 3B+ inside the Radio along with some additional hardware to play music. The radio already featured a couple of knobs on the front that are used to play some existing soundbites and radio sounds via dedicated Lego sound brick. In the end, these knobs were incorporated into the final design and used to change songs that play on the Raspberry Pi.
