Description A replica I made recently of Baymax's Healthcare Chip from Big Hero 6.
It's 3 pieces of 1mm acrylic layered over the top of each other, the two outer ones dyed green with green copic marker and yellow hilighter (Hey, it works), and the middle one spray painted matte black on the tip, and silver in the inner part, and the circuitry added with a gold metallic sharpie. The stickers were just printed onto sticker paper.
I actually had a lot of fun with this, considering the very limited amount of references there were.
It's not PERFECT, but I think as far as the replicas I've made go, it's definitely one of my best.

Are there real working versions of baymax's chip (not baymax's chip but ones like it) that we use? Are there memory chips that look like it and/or function like it? I'm very curious!

Looks awesome! Instructions? Or willing to sell another beautiful creation?

Sorry for the late reply, I haven't been on for a while.
Thanks! I really love to hear when people like my stuff
I probably wouldn't make them to sell, purely because I don't really have the time, sorry haha.
However: Instructions are totally cool with me.

1: Basically I got a piece of 1mm perspex/acrylic, I used clear but I think in hindsight green would probably be easier because they are super hard to dye (I used copic markers)
2: I cut out 3 layers: 2 short ones for the top and bottom, and 1 the exact same shape but with the chip section on the front. I used an image from the film where Hiro is holding it to get a fairly accurate scale, comparing how big the chip is in relation to his hand and how big his hand is compared to my hand. (It is 7.2 centimeters long including the chip part)
3: With the top and bottom sections, I used a battery-powered engraver to make the 2 concentric circles on the outer faces.
4: I spray-painted the inner section matte black in the pattern that you can see through the green parts, leaving the edge shape transparent. Once it was dry I painted over the black pattern with silver, leaving only the exposed part black.
5: Using a gold metallic marker, I combined references from the film with references of electronic circuits to draw a roughly realistic circuit on both sides, joining them with the contacts I had already drawn on both sides of the exposed area.
6: I used a vice with cloth on it to hold the pieces together without damaging the plastic, and used PVA wood glue around the edges to stick them together without having it visible through the transparent parts. Wipe off any excess glue with a dry cloth, which will also push the glue in a little bit to hold it better once dry without being visible from the outside.
7: The last part was just getting some sticker paper and printing the doctor logo onto one piece, and just hand writing Tadashi Hamada on a black piece cut to the right shape. I would recommend doing this while the glue is drying, and then waiting for it to dry completely before sticking them on to allow the printer ink to dry as well so they don't get smeared while you stick them on.

I hope it helps and is easy to read
