Starting with the Raspberry Pi (part 1) Introduction I always wanted to be able to control my electronics and multimedia with a simple and flexible system that could be easily installed and configured.

Starting with the Raspberry Pi (part 1)

After working with both PICs and Arduino, I have found the ultimate solution: the Raspberry Pi. Along with PICs and Arduino, Raspberry Pi has in common the low cost and the possibility to be configured as you like, but it is what distinguishes it to fascinate: the Raspberry Pi is a real computer, supporting a real operating system, with all the features to make it extremely easy and fun to work with complex electronic projects.

The real strength of this boards is that we can easily interface electronics with high-level applications, such as a web server. For example, you can develop a website in which you plan garden irrigation, manage the lights of home or read the load voltage. The HummingBoard Is a More Powerful, Upgradeable Raspberry Pi. Celebrate Pi Day With These 9 High-Tech Raspberry Pi Hacks. Google and Raspberry Pi join forces to create Coder. Over the last few years, interest in coding (especially for the web) has led to a blossoming of resources that help average people learn how to program from scratch.

Google and Raspberry Pi join forces to create Coder

Google has decided to join the fun with a new tool called Coder — along with the help of the low-cost Raspberry Pi PC. With Coder, users can develop their own apps for the web and then host them on a miniature server located directly on the Raspberry Pi. The overall cost for the DIY programming project, using Google’s recommended materials, is under $50 — and all of the educational materials are free.

After procuring a Raspberry Pi, eager students simply download information onto an SD card, plug it into the tiny computer, connect to a shared Wi-Fi and access Coder through Chrome. The whole process, according to the developers, takes just 10 minutes. Raspberry juice and Mathematics. Did you ever consider that Rasperry Pi and Mathematica could work together?

Control your home appliances from the web – using a Raspberry pi

Having already played with IR signals in order to incorporate remote control to some of my projects I knew that I would probably be able to emulate the signals sent by the original remote and thus operate the lights of my living room from a web based application. Raspberry Pi Bluetooth LE Controller for WS2812B (NeoPixels) - All. Bluetooth Low Energy (aka BLE/Bluetooth 4.0/Bluetooth Smart) is the most recent incarnation of Bluetooth technology developed by the Bluetooth SIG (the organization that maintains the specification).

Raspberry Pi Bluetooth LE Controller for WS2812B (NeoPixels) - All

This communication protocol is designed for applications where data needs to be transferred in small amounts at relatively low speed while consuming low amounts of power (e.g., heart rate monitor, step counter, wireless keyboard). This latest version of the protocol is not compatible with its predecessor (Bluetooth classic), as an upside, long gone are the days where pairing devices was necessary! The goal of this Instructable is to demonstrate how you can setup your Raspberry Pi to control RGB LEDs from a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) device nearby. Specifically, we'll be using the RFduino microcontroller, which has a built-in BLE module. We'll easily program the microcontroller to listen to messages sent by the Pi and control the LED color accordingly. Let's get started! Using a camera with Scratch on the Raspberry Pi. I needed camera control with Scratch on the Raspberry Pi for a primary school aerial photography project. I added a new python extension for Simon’s ScratchGPIO that allows either the Raspberry Pi camera or a regular USB webcam to be used with Scratch.

Follow Simon’s instructions for installing over on his site. Add your camera – if you’re using the Raspberry Pi camera, follow their instructions here. If it’s a USB camera then just plug it in. Building a Raspberry Pi Robot and Controlling it with Scratch. Happy New Year everyone! Things have been a bit quiet on this blog due to the Christmas rush, and the fact that we’ve been spending time on product development (more on that in a future post). But here at last is the 3rd and final post in our series on the Raspberry Pi robot we […] Welcome to the second part of our series of posts, describing the workshop we ran at the recent Digimakers event at @Bristol. How to Turn a Raspberry Pi into a Low-Power Network Storage Device. Mix together one Raspberry Pi and a sprinkle of cheap external hard drives and you have the recipe for an ultra-low-power and always-on network storage device. Read on as we show you how to set up your own Pi-based NAS.

Why Do I Want to Do This? The benefit of having an always-on network storage device is that it’s extremely convenient to have your data (or backup destination) always accessible to the computers both inside and outside your network. The downside, in most instances, is that you’re consuming a fair amount of power for the convenience. Our office server, for example, runs 24/7 and consumes almost $200 worth of power a year.

Monitor Your Home With the Raspberry Pi B+ Make Your Own Wireless Printer With A Raspberry Pi. Wireless technology is perhaps the best improvement to home printing for years. Fewer cables, flexibility about where you can put your printer – it’s win-win. Unless you have an older printer. While it might be easy enough to buy a new printer for under $50, you might have spent enough on your last one, and be unable to justify the outlay. Additionally, your old printer might have a special function, or manage duplexing in a particularly satisfying way, to bother replacing it.

The solution, then, is to make it wireless. Benefits Of Wireless Printing If you haven’t already enjoyed the benefits of wireless printing, then this project is definitely the place to start. With a wireless printer you can move your printing into a separate room (perhaps even your shed) and collect your print jobs when they’re complete.

Wireless printing really is about making printing flexible rather than “locking” it to the desk. Top 10 Raspberry Pi Myths and Truths. Raspberry pi News, Videos, Reviews and Gossip - Lifehacker. Everyone wants a slice of Raspberry Pi. It's 9am on a lovely autumn morning at Cern, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research, just outside Geneva.
