I found these awesome Raspberry Pi pinout diagrams by Pighixxx at Flickr. When I am trying to learn something new, I make my own diagrams. I have been doing some reading about safely connecting things to the GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi, especially regarding Voltage and Amps. It is not as simple as one […]
HummingBoard is a board made by SolidRun that’s mechanically compatible with the Raspberry Pi, and offering the same expansions connectors, and a few extras. The board is comprised of a baseboard and a microSoM powered by Freescale i.MX6 Solo, Dual Lite or Dual. At first it looked like an internal project, but the board went […]
Raspberry pi roboat is an internet controlled water robot using an RC boat as it chassis. This will be use to check an unreachable sewer by giving a live picture stream to the web browser. This thing is also could be another option to learn robotics with the raspberry pi because this robot was built […]
The Raspberry pi is a device which uses the Broadcom controller chip which is a SoC (System on Chip). This SoC has the powerful ARM11 processor which runs on 700 MHz at its core. This powerful processor and the controller having the peripherals like timers, interrupt controller, GPIO, PCM / I2S, DMA controller, I2C, SPI […]
A few months ago I did the LabVIEW Connectivity course at National Instruments UK. I really enjoyed it but haven’t got around to trying any of the concepts out yet. Last week I decided to write a TCP/IP chat program working between LabVIEW running on my Windows laptop and Python running my Raspberry Pi. On […]
Assalamualaikum, Hi. I would love to share my recent project, connecting an IR receiver to Raspberry Pi’s GPIO. Warning! Playing around with Rpi’s GPIO is dangerous if you didn’t know what you’re doing. I’ll not hold any responsibility on any failure of your device while following my guide. GPIO for Rev.1 Rpi’s is different from […]
A couple of weeks ago, I saw this really cool Raspberry Pi based RFID-enabled cassette player. It ran PiMusicbox and the maker created a module to control PiMusicbox via RFID. This would be perfect for my three year old daughter. Ok, as she’s clearly not familiar with cassette players, I needed something simpler. She already […]
In addition to the audio, video, network and USB connectors, the Raspberry Pi also has 26 GPIO pins. These pins also include an UART serial console, which can be used to log in to the Pi, and many other things. However, normal UART device communicate with -12V (logical “1”) and +12V (logical “0”), which may […]
I recently acquired a Raspberry PI Model B. as a new gadget to toy with and I must say I am very impressed with it. I would recommend visiting the project’s website at http://www.raspberrypi.org/ for a more in-depth overview but will tell you the premise behind the project is to promote learning, development, and technology exploration […]
Due to the proliferation of cellular networks, most homes have abandoned their land line telephone plan. The infrastructure is still there though, hidden in our walls. Why let all that copper go to waste? Let’s talk about how inexpensive and easy it is to reclaim this technology, making it useful again in today’s internet connected […]
