HP Robots LED Matrix Console – Máy game pixel RGB cho Otto

What if your Otto robot could play games instead of just running around? With the HP Robots LED Matrix Console, we turned the Otto Starter Kit + expansions into a retro‑inspired RGB pixel game machine—complete with classics like Tetris and Snake.

This build uses the same modular electronics from the Otto ecosystem and repurposes them into a colorful, handheld‑style console powered by an RGB LED matrix. It’s a fun crossover between robotics, creative coding, and nostalgic gaming.

🕹 How It Works

Using the HP Otto Starter electronics, we transformed the robot into a compact game console:

• 🔲 Mounted the RGB LED matrix as the main display

• 🧠 Connected it to the Otto main board

• 🔌 Plugged in the expansion ports for power & control

• 🎮 Added button inputs for gameplay

• 🧩 Loaded custom Python mini‑games (Tetris & Snake)

• 📦 Enclosed everything in a snap‑fit 3D‑printed shell

The result is a tiny, colorful, pixel‑art console you can build and code yourself.

🎮 Included Mini‑Games

• Tetris – falling blocks, rotating pieces, classic strategy

• Snake – grow the snake, avoid the walls, chase the pixels

Both games run on the LED matrix using simple Python scripts included in the files.
