How about actually printing, then laminating on a lenticular surface providing a "GIF-sized" short moving-image effect? [edited per comments]
rectilinear? Do you mean lenticular?

#43Really cool! As you are using a Raspberry Pi 3 you can add a 100% on-device Voice AI to it using https://snips.ai we would be interested to see how you can use this to add some cool interactions!
What would be interesting about that at all?
Walking around with a hammer looking for ras-pis.

I presume you mean "lenticular" - which would be a very cool (and possibly mass-producible) alternative. I wonder how you might go about performing the lamination inside the camera... Perhaps you could feed it a pre-laminated sheet that is thin enough that it can be printed on the reverse side?
The lenticular surface doesn't have to be very thick at all and if you can print directly onto the plastic I think what you describe would be pretty straightforward to make!

#46Very cool. If you can make that cartridge dirt cheap, you will have invented an exciting new technology. Build a V2 with cheaper tech, change your wording a bit as to what the device does, keep the polaroid link a little bit, but make it your own and then I think you'll have something that could kick ass on Kickstarter.
Make the carts NFC and turn Share on when you remove it. You could Tap to swap whatever gif is currently displayed on someone else's cart. That's probably easier than dirt cheap, disposable displays.

The Waste produced by this device would be immense.

#48This is so cool! The assembly GIFs really show how much work went into this. Thanks for sharing.

#49you said "prints" but I saw "programs"
He didn't say anything, you read it.

Don't forget the Harry Potter branding association. That's what will end up bringing in the big bucks.
