I want to make a physical device to control spotify connect. It’d have a slot where you insert a card that has the name of the song / playlist / album written on it, and the device would ocr that and send it to spotify. That way my 2 year old can use it without a smart phone

I think some versions have lights too, so the barcode is visible. https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsc01.alicdn.com%2Fkf%2FHTB1Dgi1m8jTBKNjSZFu7620HFXa0%2F229126686%2FHTB1Dgi1m8jTBKNjSZFu7620HFXa0.png&f=1&nofb=1 https://external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2F... I guess one could get a Raspberry Pi with camera, and 3D print such a box (or order from AliExpress). Install a QR code reader software that can talk to Spotify, and print some cards, ideally with QR codes on both sides. The end user would just have to place the card on the glass to get music to play.
