Introducing the Pi Store. We’ve been amazed by the variety of software that people have written for, or ported to, the Raspberry Pi. Today, together with our friends at IndieCity and Velocix, we’re launching the Pi Store to make it easier for developers of all ages to share their games, applications, tools and tutorials with the rest of the community. The Pi Store will, we hope, become a one-stop shop for all your Raspberry Pi needs; it’s also an easier way into the Raspberry Pi experience for total beginners, who will find everything they need to get going in one place, for free. The store runs as an X application under Raspbian, and allows users to download content, and to upload their own content for moderation and release.

At launch, we have 23 free titles in the store, ranging from utilities like LibreOffice and Asterisk to classic games like Freeciv and OpenTTD and Raspberry Pi exclusive Iridium Rising. We also have one piece of commercial content: the excellent Storm in a Teacup from Cobra Mobile. Raspberry Pi Site: Raspberry Pi Projects.

Just when you thought you can no longer squeeze anything else into the tiny Raspberry Pi computer, think again: the puny device is getting a video camera. A report on PC World said developers expect to make the HD camera available by early spring, though the camera's specifications have yet to be finalized.

"The first cameras are expected to come with a 15-centimeter (just under 6 inches) flat cable and sell for around $25. The lens on the camera is similar to those found on many camera phones and is expected to provide 5 megapixels," PC World said. It quoted Raspberry Pi developers as saying the camera board is an alternative to using USB cameras with the Raspberry Pi. They said a camera board may give a better-quality resolution at a lower price, compared to USB-based counterparts. Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into a TV and a keyboard. While tiny, it can do many things a regular desktop PC does, including playing high-definition video. — TJD, GMA News. Raspberry Pwn: A pentesting release for the Raspberry Pi | Pwnie Express.

Raspberry Pi, activist tool. The tiny, $35, Linux-based Raspberry Pi computer has drawn a lot of attention in the last few months, and though it was originally developed to teach computer programming to young students, Internet activists have taken notice as well. A recent BBC interview with developer Nadim Kobeissi, creator of a web-based secure communications program called Cryptocat, shows off just one potential use of the low-cost hardware and free software system. Kobeissi says he's looking forward to the arrival of Raspberry Pi as a way to bring extra-secure communication to web chat, especially in places where conversations might be watched. Kobeissi's Cryptocat is an open-source program that encrypts chat conversations before they're sent to a server.

For relatively little money, he plans to buy Raspberry Pi computers, set them up as servers running Cryptocat, and send them to areas where free speech is monitored or prohibited. ModMyPi case covers the $35 Raspberry Pi PC for about $13. The Rasbperry Pi is a full-fledged computer which you can buy for about $35. It has a processor, memory, USB and Ethernet ports. But one thing the RaspBerry Pi doesn’t have is a protective case. It’s basically a system-on-a-board and not much else. But a company called ModMyPi is taking pre-orders for a case designed to put some clothes on the Raspberry Pi Model B and make it look respectable. I suppose it will also help protect the little system from the elements a bit, while providing air vents for cooling. The ModMyI sells for £7.99 including VAT in the UK, or a little less than $13. That price will get you a black or white model, while an extra £1.99 will let you grab one in red, green, or blue.

The cases will start shipping April 5th. Geek.com reports that ModeMyPi will donate 5 percent of the proceeds from case sales to the Raspberry Pi Foundation. The $35 Raspberry Pi has a 700 MHz Broadcom BCM2835 ARM-based processor, 256MB of RAM, HDMI output, 2 USB ports and an Ethernet jack. Projects - Rasberry Pi | eLinux.org. Back to the Hub.

Community Project List. Good Ideas and Notebooks | evsc. Where Good Ideas Come From On the flight back from Austria to Montreal I’ve read Steven Johnson’s Where Good Ideas Come From. I really like his work – i’ve read Mind Wide Open and Emergence before – because he manages to write easy-read and entertaining popular science books that at the same time give you tons of information and leave we with an enthusiasm for the topic. Where Good Ideas Come From shows how good ideas are not simple sparks suddenly popping into your mind, but complicated constructs that build on months or years of inputs coming from different conversations, readings, visits to the museum, events in your everyday life, tales told to you by your grandma, etc.

They slowly take shape in your make, before one final trigger suddenly transforms them into a clearly graspable concept. Johnson shows and advocates how collaboration and interdisciplinarity are the most fertile grounds for new groundbreaking ideas. Erasmus Darwin’s commonplace book Commonplace book — mid 17th century. Raspberry Pi | An ARM GNU/Linux box for $25. Take a byte!

Here's a simple supercomputer you could build for around $4,000. Setting Up Your Raspberry Pi For Headless Use With SSH. The Raspberry Pi is – as we’ve seen in several previous articles – an extremely flexible piece of hardware. Once you’ve installed an operating system, got to grips with the small dimensions, and found a case for it, you’ll be able to install media centre software and perhaps even begin programming software (after all, that’s what it was designed for!). However, you might find that the business of plugging the Raspberry Pi into your big screen plasma TV – the only device in your house with a HDMI connection – is a bit tiresome while your family is watching their favourite show.

Alternatively, you might have more than enough HDMI displays but not enough keyboards. Benefits of SSH Fortunately, the Raspberry Pi can accept SSH commands when connected to a local network (either by Ethernet or Wi-Fi), enabling you to easily set it up. Using the Pi as a NAS interface? This is where SSH comes in!

Pi Crust breakout board makes it easy to get peripherals on Raspberry Pi. Joe Walnes, a Chicago-based hacker and maker, has just released a design for what he has dubbed the Pi Crust: a very cheap new hardware add-on for the Raspberry Pi. The breakout board, which debuted on Wednesday, is meant to make it easier to tack various hardware peripherals onto the cheap computer, and it does so in an compact design.

The new board only adds 2mm of height to the existing Raspberry Pi. As Walnes lays out on his site, there are various well-labelled pins, including GPIO, I2C, SPI, UART, and power. "This makes it so you can connect things directly to a Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi has the capability to do all this stuff, but it’s a bit inconvenient," Walnes told Ars. "[The Pi Crust] just makes it a little bit simpler. It’s nothing revolutionary, it’s just taking the pins on the RP and laying them out to make them more convenient to access and it’s nice and compact.

" "However all the different signals are grouped together, which makes them hard to connect to. Low-level peripherals - Rasberry Pi | eLinux.org.

Low-level Peripherals - using the GPIO and other connectors. Expansion Boards - GPIO plug-in boards providing additional functionality. Screens - attaching a screen to the Raspberry Pi. Cases - lots of nice cases to protect the Raspberry Pi. Other Peripherals - all sorts of peripherals used with the Raspberry Pi. Introduction In addition to the familiar USB, Ethernet and HDMI ports, the Raspberry Pi offers the ability to connect directly to a variety of electronic devices. Digital outputs: turn lights, motors, or other devices on or off Digital inputs: read an on or off state from a button, switch, or other sensor Communication with chips or modules using low-level protocols: SPI, I²C, or serial UART Connections are made using GPIO ("General Purpose Input/Output") pins. Note that no analogue input or output is available. Links Useful P2 pins: Raspberry Pi Starter Kit - Includes Raspberry Pi!

Raspberry Pi announces the Gertboard expansion board – Computer Chips & Hardware Technology. When the Raspberry Pi $25 PC makes an appearance next year, it won’t be the only piece of hardware available to buy from the foundation’s online store. Today, it has been revealed the first expansion board for the tiny computer will also be available to purchase (if things go to plan).

Expansion boards allow for additional functionality otherwise not possible with the standard PC board. In this case, the so-called Gertboard will add the option to play with flashing LEDs, hook your Raspberry Pi up to motors, and mess around with a range of sensors. A Raspberry Pi-powered robot, anyone?

The board has been developed by Gert van Loo, another Broadcom employee just like Eben Upton. Rather than shipping as a completed board, expect to get your hands dirty as some soldering will be required to put it together. That shouldn’t be an issue though, as anyone opting to purchase the Gertboard is either already adept at carrying out such work, or wants to learn how. More at Raspberry Pi.

Nearly all of the fuss about the low-cost Raspberry Pi computer's hardware has died down and we finally have some details of its software that is easy enough for the rest of us to follow. So what can you do with it out of the box? Dr Eben Upton, founder of the Raspberry Pi Foundation, has just posted some easy-to-follow details of how to get started programming the Raspberry Pi.

It was initially a webinar but if you missed it then you can download the information as a PDF - but be warned there is some strange formatting and repetitions due to the change in presentation format. The first half or so of the presentation is about unboxing and getting started, so the emphasis on hardware hasn't entirely evaporated. Once we do get to the software details then things are much more interesting. It explains how to create a boot SD card for the system. The good news is that the boot image contains a program editor, JOE, which features syntax highlighting for Python and C. More Information. Programming Raspberry Pi. Sneak Peek: Adafruit Raspberry Pi WebIDE. September 19, 2012 AT 2:14 pm We love the Raspberry Pi. This tiny computer has so much potential for makers, and it is offered at an extremely reasonable price. The one thing we didn’t like about the Pi is how inaccesible it is to those who are new to Linux. So, the tiny team that brought you the Adafruit Learning System set out to develop our own way to open up the Raspberry Pi for everyone.

As the name suggests, the Raspberry Pi WebIDE is entirely web based. We have also included a built-in terminal so you can listen to, and talk directly with your Raspberry Pi. We have so many cool things planned for the WebIDE, and expect to have plenty of updates (especially at the beginning). Like I said, this is just a sneak peek, and covers only a few of it’s many features. Stay tuned to the Adafruit blog for more updates. Related Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
