Just about compete. I have some touching up to do and one last annoying software bug to fix. This is 100% voice controlled (except for a button to turn the mic back on after you tell HAL to deactivate it). The software issue is with the Microphone Hat I'm using. The program will fail the first time but when you launch it a second time it works perfectly. I may add buttons in the future, which is why I have the Logic Memory Center plaque. It's hiding a cutout that I might use for buttons at some point. I'll post a link to a YouTube video of it in action later. The biggest waste of time and money was trying to get an old laptop screen to work with this. I went through two controllers and bought a brand new laptop screen but still never got it working. Plus everything was coming from China so there were several weeks between each attempt. I finally gave up and bought a 10 Inch touch screen (SunFounder) specifically made for the Raspberry Pi. I used that same screen on Pi jukebox and they're great. Trying to save a few dollars cost me a ton and greatly delayed the project. Live and learn.
The eye is the Adafruit giant arcade button that I highly modified.
The aluminum looking parts were 3D printed. The Logic sign, Hal's panel, the console, and the HAL 9000 logo were done on a CNC machine (FoxAlien 4040XE).
HAL is powered by a Raspberry Pi 3B+ running the latest Raspberry Pi O/S.
