The author describes their project of replacing a Digital Pet from Tiger, a cheaper Tamagotchi rip-off, with an Arduino Nano, an OLED screen, and 6V batteries. This is a prototype for their thesis in New Technologies of Art. They detail modifications like eviscerating the original device, integrating a new battery holder, and making adjustments to the case. The final goal is to create a working game loop display on the OLED screen.
