Step back into the 90s with his incredible project, TVArgenta, uses a Raspberry Pi 4 to create a self-contained, retro-style TV that brings back the authentic experience of channel surfing. Designed to look like a small CRT set, it features an old-school rotary encoder for switching between channels, complete with static and noise transitions.
While Ricardo Sappia built it to share nostalgic 90s Argentinian TV commercials with his children, the platform is entirely generic—you can fill it with your own favorite clips, home videos, or curated content for a personal, offline experience.
