That decision kept the mechanics simple. A 5-inch HDMI screen handles the display duties, paired with a compact Bluetooth keyboard and touchpad combo for actual typing, while a USB battery bank keeps the entire rig running without hunting for an outlet mid-performance.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/community.element14.com\/challenges-projects\/element14-presents\/project-videos\/w\/documents\/72108\/building-an-arduino-uno-q-cyberdeck-inside-a-puppet\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Natasha Dzurny<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-648751\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/17\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This DIY Computer Build Looks Like a Muppet and Works Like a Real PC\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-03.jpg\"><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-648752\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/17\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This DIY Computer Build Looks Like a Muppet and Works Like a Real PC\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-11.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-648752\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/17\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This DIY Computer Build Looks Like a Muppet and Works Like a Real PC\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-11.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7222236028814181\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\" type=\"0830d3d0b0d18831e6911d1b-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- In-Content-Ad-1 --><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"0830d3d0b0d18831e6911d1b-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>A webcam tucked into the build adds a function most puppets never get, letting its creator record herself running an actual puppet show through the lens mounted somewhere in that fuzzy head.

The board itself sits on a piece of foam board rather than glued directly to the frame, which keeps adhesive away from sensitive components while also helping dissipate heat that would otherwise build up inside an enclosed, fur-covered space. A modified stereo jack even gets its own reinforced pocket near the mouth so headphones can plug in without disrupting the puppet\u2019s face.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-648761\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/17\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This DIY Computer Build Looks Like a Muppet and Works Like a Real PC\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-10.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-648761\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/09\/17\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"This DIY Computer Build Looks Like a Muppet and Works Like a Real PC\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2026\/09\/this-diy-computer-build-looks-like-a-muppet-and-works-like-a-real-pc\/cyberdeck-puppet-10.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>None of that hidden engineering shows once the fur and the big cartoonish eyes go on.
