When I was a kid, Ghostbusters was my favorite movie.

Every time I saw that scene where they opened the trap — blue light bursting out, eerie sounds, and spirits getting sucked inside —

I promised myself that one day, I would build one for real.

And now, with UNIHIKER, transparent LCD displays, and 3D printing,

it’s finally possible to make that dream come true —

a Ghost Trap that actually looks like there’s a real spirit inside, moving and trying to escape. 👻

Step 1: Designed

How It Works

  1. UNIHIKER, plays looping “ghost-in-the-box” videos using mpv.
  2. The transparent display creates the illusion of a trapped entity.
  3. RGB LEDs flash blue-red when the ghost moves.
  4. Eerie knocks and whispers come from the speaker.
  5. When the user touches the screen → the ghost calms down briefly before reappearing.

Build Steps

  1. 3D Print the Case
  2. Design in FreeCAD
  3. Include a viewing window to show the trapped spirit.
  4. Add engraved Ghostbusters logo or hazard labels.

Step 2: Hardware


1.UNIHIKER M10 x1

2.LCD TFT x1

3.3Dprint case

4.LED RGB WS2812

Step 3: Software

Python:

sudo nano ghost1.py


UNIHIKER: Install

pip install moviepy

sudo apt install -y mpv python3-evdev



sudo XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u) python3 ghost1.py

sudo -E python3 ghost1.py

Step 4: 3Dprint

Step 5: Circuit
