Pilsen city, famous as the place where lager beer was invented, hosted a Maker Faire event in the beginning of June. L2Camera project was selected for this first after-the-lockdown event!

There were many makers showing their projects and crafts. My attention was caught by a project by Vaclav Mach (aka xx0x), the author of gbpxl (GameBoy Printer XL).

Vaclav showed  talking wrist watches and a table clock. I liked these projects because they are done very thoroughly. He went even that far to reach out to Vaclav Knop, a Czech actor and director, whose voice was used for all railroad audio announcements across the country. Mr. Knop kindly agreed to record voice announcements again specially for the watch project.

The camera attracted attention and, surprisingly enough, I even got price quotes from the visitors!
