The Pi Zero and BeagleBone fit nicely in an Altiods tin. I wish the Pi 3 would fit in an Altoids tin.

Great idea. There is a 3D Print design available to connect the Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera v2 to a camera lense. There might even be a design that could fit a telescope eyepiece.

This is priceless!!!! All sorts of drinking games come to mind with an LED alert when the trigger is identified. ... ah, the wasted college days playing "Smurf" (whenever Smurf is used as a non-noun part of speech). Or perhaps a Kevin Bacon search engine.

I love it,
Jack
