Introducing the AUUUGH Plankton: a meme-powered 3D Print that lets you unleash Plankton’s soul-crushing cry whenever you feel like it.

Have you had this Plankton meme stuck in your head rent-free for months?
Same. So, I 3D printed it. 

This is how it works. You press the button, and he lets out the exact audio your brain plays at 3AM for no reason.

Parts needed:

• ESP32: The brain of the project. 

• MAX98357 I2S Amplifier: For driving the speaker with audio data from the ESP32.

• 3W Speaker: The louder, the better. This speaker brings the scream to life.

• USB C Female socket: For charging the battery to hear that beautiful auuugh.

• 3.7V LiPo Battery: Powers the device, ensuring it's portable and long-lasting.

• TP4056 Charging Module : For safely charging the LiPo battery.

• Momentary Push Button: To trigger the “AUUUGH” scream when pressed.

• Wires, Hot glue gun, soldering iron, etc…

                                                                                 OR

• Sound Module

• 3.7V LiPo Battery

Features:

• Screaming Plankton Audio: Press the button, and it plays the iconic “AUUUGH” sound, fading in smoothly for an added dramatic effect.

• Low Power Consumption: Uses ESP32’s deep sleep mode for ultra-low power consumption. After playing the audio, the system automatically enters deep sleep to save battery, with a 15-second delay before going to sleep.

• Button Triggered: The button is wired to trigger the sound whenever pressed. It’s simple, straightforward, and meme-worthy.
