Sketch-Y-Etch is a retrospective etch-a-sketch-esque drawing expirience with a modern twist.
The Sketch-Y-Etch project is undergoing a major revission, in a exploration of new and novel methods.
This is educational project if you want it to be, and just plain fun if you just want to do some drawing.

version 1:
The project is housed in a 43 inch TV, with the addition of 2 rotary encoders, 4 buttons providing keystokes using an microcontroler.
Version 2:
focuses even more on being platform agnostic, requiring only an HMDI port, or a keyboard. Linux, Mac, or windows, Sketch-Y-etch is designed to run on ANYTHING.

Embeding this prject in a TV is fun, but not required. The Sketch-Y-Etch project is highly flexible, and OPEN to many types of installations.

You want a 72" Sketch-Y-Etch? do it! Embed it into a projector with a raspberry pi? You can do it! want to just open it up and run on your PC? Not a problem.

We are very interested to see what you create. Need some help making your own? better documentation is on the way, and I'm here to help.
If you are in the greater Bangor Maine area, feel free to come to the Bangor Makerspace to check the sketch-y-etch out in person!
