Say cheese! This optical mouse is now a camera

YouTuber Doctor Volt has repurposed an optical mouse to create a camera. The project relied principally on the mouse's optical sensor, a third-party controller, some software wrangling, and a little bit of 3D printing to tidily secure a Raspberry Pi wide-angle lens in place of the prism. The photos weren't great, though.
