Big Mouth Billy Bass Videoconferencing

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the now-there's-a-project dept.

scubamage writes "Whilst browsing the net today, I found a link to a hardware hacking project by a well established Stanford graduate. His goal is to take those annoyingly popular Big Mouth Billy Bass singing fish, and not only allow users to interface it with their favorite linux box, but also to allow it to lipsync, and eventually be used as a videoconferencing peripheral. Quite an interesting read, complete with step-by-step instructions to make your own, and software source to be played with."

    This evil program is the first step towards sick hackers abusing Billy for deviant sexual purposes. Imagine Billy's big lips opening and closing on demand. It's enough to make me sick.

    This is the gateway to teledildonic virtual beastiality.

    Apres Billy, le deluge!

    Dang, I thought I was cool for sticking a relay in Mr. Billy and using him for my doorbell. I guess that just goes to show ya...
