Tissue Box PMP

[ToastBucket]

As the school is coming to a close, my APUS teacher thought it would be a great time to hand out an extra credit opportunity. His assignment was to decorate a tissue box with APUS related pictures. The better it's done, the more extra credit you get. Now being the giant nerd I am, I decided to go with an electronic approach. This is what I came up with.

​

So this tissue box plays movies, music (unfortunately I didn't add speakers because I didn't have spare amp), and views photos. It reads them off of either an SD card or a USB flash drive. It also runs off of 5 AA's (4 underneath in a compartment and one on the side in a single AA holder.

Just find an amp laying around, it'd be so much cooler with sound

Neato. Would the nbox be the the player you used? I've been wanting to make one for a while now.

Awesome! I'm sure you will get plenty of extra credit!

It was the Micca Mplay, but I'm sure it's exactly the same.

How much extra credit was it? Every time I've EVER tried to build electronic stuff for class, I've been yelled at for either "obviously" paying someone to do it, or using resources other kids "can't afford and don't have access to." (What's funnier is I was the poorest kid in both of those classes.)

Make a video and bring the receipts. Unless the teacher meant brains were one of the resources they don't have access to.
