WEBVTT -- Anglais

00:00:00.322 --> 00:00:05.088
hey guys! I'd like to show you a project I have been working on for the past few months

00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:14.220
It's called Raspiboy, it's a game console that can run all kind of you childhood video games.

00:00:14.221 --> 00:00:16.440
and all in the same device!

00:00:16.539 --> 00:00:21.646
It's based on a raspberry pi zero, which is a very small computer

00:00:21.647 --> 00:00:27.498
on which ou can run an emulation software, such as retropie that is launching right now!

00:00:27.640 --> 00:00:34.271
I saw some really nice projects of such devices like game boy zero on the internet

00:00:34.448 --> 00:00:41.265
but they looked very difficult long and pretty expensive to make

00:00:41.970 --> 00:00:46.090
so I decided to make a kit that would be as simple as possible

00:00:46.402 --> 00:00:54.939
, that would not require any soldering or programming and that would be very affordable

00:00:55.133 --> 00:00:57.133
So about 50€

00:00:58.695 --> 00:01:04.659
so this is the final prototype it has some very nice features that I would like to show you

00:01:04.739 --> 00:01:08.930
And the whole thing is now designed and ready for production

00:01:09.364 --> 00:01:15.019
So first I will give you a little overview of the features then we'll have a look at the inside,

00:01:15.403 --> 00:01:19.418
at the different components and how easy it is to assemble them.

00:01:20.459 --> 00:01:24.418
So the first thing that I really like about this design is the form factor

00:01:24.498 --> 00:01:27.689
and the fact that you have L and R button at the back

00:01:28.346 --> 00:01:30.402
It fits really nicely in the hands

00:01:30.600 --> 00:01:37.569
As you can see they are plenty of game systems that are supported by retropie

00:01:37.739 --> 00:01:40.739
In fact you have more than 50 different systems

00:01:41.563 --> 00:01:44.121
you can check the full list on the internet

00:01:44.381 --> 00:01:49.159
and if you get bored playing you can even watch movies and listen to music

00:01:51.019 --> 00:01:55.168
So well I will not show you any famous game for obvious copyright reasons

00:01:55.278 --> 00:02:00.490
but you can check on youtube for a retropie overview

00:02:00.561 --> 00:02:04.498
if you want to have a look at the full potential of retropie

00:02:05.260 --> 00:02:12.799
so let's start now an unlicensed game, to show you the different features of the Raspiboy

00:02:13.692 --> 00:02:19.548
and by the way this game was a nice surprise! We had a lot of fun playing it with friends!

00:02:23.068 --> 00:02:29.754
the first feature is of course the LCD screen which is a 3.5" composite lcd

00:02:29.756 --> 00:02:33.955
on the side you have the micro USB for charging the battery

00:02:33.955 --> 00:02:40.259
here is a speaker with a thumbwheel potentiometer on the side to tune volume

00:02:40.260 --> 00:02:44.860
and it can get pretty load at max power

00:02:44.861 --> 00:02:49.622
on the side you also have a headphone set connector

00:02:49.640 --> 00:02:51.640
so if you connect your headphone set it shutdown the speaker

00:02:55.187 --> 00:02:59.469
then on the top you have 3 USB outputs

00:02:59.471 --> 00:03:03.907
which is one of the best feature of Raspiboy because

00:03:03.907 --> 00:03:08.562
if you have extra game pads like this one

00:03:08.563 --> 00:03:11.284
you can just plug them in USB

00:03:11.286 --> 00:03:16.687
and you can play multiplayer games up to 4 players

00:03:16.687 --> 00:03:20.290
maybe if you'r in the train or at the back of a car

00:03:20.292 --> 00:03:22.748
it can be nice to play 2 or 3 players

00:03:25.275 --> 00:03:28.367
but if you'r sitting in your living room with your friends

00:03:28.368 --> 00:03:31.590
all around a 3.5" lcd screen

00:03:31.591 --> 00:03:35.868
it might not be very comfortable

00:03:35.870 --> 00:03:38.376
which brings us to the last feature of Raspiboy

00:03:38.377 --> 00:03:43.014
here is a HDMI output, so if you plug your TV here

00:03:43.014 --> 00:03:48.568
the video will swap automatically from Raspiboy to your TV

00:03:56.655 --> 00:03:58.787
So now let's have a look at the different components

00:03:58.788 --> 00:04:01.501
So Raspiboy will come as a kit

00:04:01.968 --> 00:04:03.968
but don't worry! It'll be very easy to assemble it.

00:04:06.967 --> 00:04:11.183
it's about 5 minutes task and I hope it will also be very interesting

00:04:11.185 --> 00:04:15.286
as I will make a full tutorial with a lot of intrusctive facts

00:04:15.287 --> 00:04:19.913
on electronics, product design, prototyping and so on.

00:04:19.913 --> 00:04:22.961
so this is the front casing

00:04:22.961 --> 00:04:27.129
as you can see it's designed for injection molding mass-production

00:04:27.130 --> 00:04:34.824
so the first thinf that you need is to install the software on the micro SD

00:04:34.824 --> 00:04:41.459
then you can take the raspberry pi zero and plug the SD card inside

00:04:41.459 --> 00:04:47.461
then the raspberry pi will go on the plastic pins

00:04:47.461 --> 00:04:50.108
like this

00:04:50.108 --> 00:04:53.987
and you just need to push it down

00:04:53.988 --> 00:05:00.199
like thisas you can see the HDMI output is just here

00:05:01.514 --> 00:05:03.514
so now

00:05:03.514 --> 00:05:09.887
here is the 8BCraft PCB so I designed this PCB to add some features

00:05:09.887 --> 00:05:12.759
that the raspberry pi zero does not have

00:05:13.348 --> 00:05:16.779
so for example this is for battery management

00:05:16.781 --> 00:05:20.442
with battery connector and power input

00:05:20.444 --> 00:05:22.444
this is the on/off switch

00:05:22.444 --> 00:05:25.041
it also does the sound management

00:05:25.043 --> 00:05:29.951
with thumbwheel potentiometer, headphone connector

00:05:29.952 --> 00:05:34.805
this is the speaker connector

00:05:34.805 --> 00:05:40.045
the third thing that this PCB does is USB hub with this micro-controller

00:05:40.047 --> 00:05:43.757
so you have 1,2,3, 4 USB outputs

00:05:43.757 --> 00:05:46.810
and also on the back of the board

00:05:46.812 --> 00:05:50.435
you have the microcontroller that drives the LCD

00:05:50.435 --> 00:05:56.494
this one is driving the LCD through this FPC connector

00:05:56.495 --> 00:05:58.495
So I put some tape to prevent any shortcut with the raspberry pi zero

00:06:04.646 --> 00:06:11.206
so, all we need now is to stack this board on top the raspberry pi zero

00:06:11.208 --> 00:06:14.228
and it will make contact with those pogo-pins

00:06:14.230 --> 00:06:18.771
those are spring loaded contact pins

00:06:18.773 --> 00:06:21.353
so that you don't need to solder any thing

00:06:21.355 --> 00:06:27.742
you just need to put it on top of the raspberry pi zero

00:06:28.432 --> 00:06:30.432
We'll put it at the same time as the LCD screen, the LCD goes on the FPC connector right there

00:06:35.812 --> 00:06:43.459
so I open it, put the FPC inside, like this, and close it

00:06:43.459 --> 00:06:49.011
and now we put the lcd here

00:06:49.012 --> 00:06:59.041
and the 8BCraft PCB on top of raspberry pi zero like this.

00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.120
and I also need to add the wire here

00:07:05.440 --> 00:07:13.750
the extra USB will come here, we can use double face tape to fix it.

00:07:13.750 --> 00:07:15.937
so now let's add the gamepad module

00:07:15.939 --> 00:07:22.396
first we can add the color buttons, like this

00:07:22.398 --> 00:07:24.398
and this

00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:32.930
on top we add this silicon thing

00:07:32.930 --> 00:07:36.629
we can add the directional button

00:07:36.630 --> 00:07:40.375
like this

00:07:40.375 --> 00:07:42.375
start and select buttons will go there

00:07:44.548 --> 00:07:46.548
the L and R buttons will go here and here

00:07:50.475 --> 00:07:54.644
and now we can add the game controller PCB

00:07:54.644 --> 00:07:56.887
we'll put it right there

00:07:58.889 --> 00:08:03.055
and you have small pcb for L and R buttons

00:08:03.057 --> 00:08:06.694
that fits here and here

00:08:06.696 --> 00:08:09.218
like this

00:08:09.218 --> 00:08:16.242
before plugging in the gamepad we will add the speaker

00:08:16.244 --> 00:08:19.872
so the speaker will go here

00:08:19.872 --> 00:08:24.577
like this

00:08:24.579 --> 00:08:31.680
and we will connect it to the 8BCraft PCB right there.

00:08:41.716 --> 00:08:43.716
like this

00:08:47.710 --> 00:08:56.091
I will use a small tape to fix the wire

00:08:56.091 --> 00:08:59.379
now we can also plug in the gamepad here

00:08:59.379 --> 00:09:01.379
like this

00:09:01.380 --> 00:09:07.321
I will also add a bit a tape to hold it

00:09:09.572 --> 00:09:16.309
and that's it! We just need to put the back casing on top

00:09:16.311 --> 00:09:18.453
here is the back casing

00:09:18.455 --> 00:09:22.787
as you can see I already put the battery here

00:09:22.788 --> 00:09:27.893
with some double face tape

00:09:27.894 --> 00:09:30.990
so I will just need to connect it to the board

00:09:30.991 --> 00:09:32.991
here

00:09:38.225 --> 00:09:44.330
and that's it, we can close it

00:09:44.331 --> 00:09:48.051
and with some screws we will put it all together

00:09:55.879 --> 00:10:01.649
As you saw everything is now ready for production and manufacturers are ready to get started

00:10:02.148 --> 00:10:07.880
all I need now is you guys, I will start a crowfunding campaign the 6th of December

00:10:08.149 --> 00:10:13.554
so if you'd like to get your own raspiboy kit it will be available from 50€
