My Raspberry Pi Geiger Counter

I got a Mighty Ohm Geiger counter for Christmas and made it into a Random Number Generator. Luckily you can mute the counter so I won’t be awake at night listening to constant blips.

I don’t know if anyone here would be interested but I have made a quick YouTube video showing it.

This link below includes the fully commented python code I wrote to do this. I have regenerated my API key so don’t bother trying to post to my stream :)
