Revive A ’90s Portable TV With A Raspberry Pi

The portable colour TV is a classic ’90s gadget, but they’re pretty pointless nowadays. Regardless, YouTuber David Watts decided to stuff a Raspberry Pi inside to bring it some new life.

This video above is just part one of a currently running work in progress, but it lays the foundation for the project. The general idea is pretty self-explanatory though, the Pi gets stuffed inside the case of the portable TV, then it gets wired into that goofy LCD screen. The project isn’t done yet, but you can follow along on Watts’ channel.
