Sheikah Slate for Cosplay
In November 2021 I decided to tackle my next cosplay build – Nintendo’s Zelda Breath of the Wild’s Link, specifically his Royal Guardsman armor from the Champions Ballad DLC.
Sewing aside, the biggest part of the project proved to be the Sheikah slate. Initially I considered making a “dummy” prop, maybe with lights, but after doing some research I started down the Adafruit rabbit hole (thanks @ladyada) and opted to integrate a 7inch TFT touch screen, a small camera, a noisemaker, and various light sources. A prototype was built with the following specifications and functions:
- ESP32 based microcontroller integrated with a custom PCB
- Light up orange and blue pieces along parts of the body
- Generate a “chirping” sound to mimic a Sheikah Sensor
- Simulate the “sleep” image, the sheikah logo shown above, when not in use
- Display basic menus for information
However, the prototype had a LONG way to go… so I went back to the drawing board and rolled up a V2.0. Improvements:
- On-board SD card integration to delete the SD shield
- Shrunk the board considerably (check out the photos!)
- Moved from DAC audio to a proper IIS solution
- Deleted all the bulb LEDs, moved to addressable everything for color coordination
- Integration of a TTL camera
- Board updates for noise shielding
- Proper GUI built using GUISlice Builder
More can be found at the github; this description is unmaintained.
