It allows you to do everything you could do with a regular Linux computer (Connecting to the internet, watching videos, launching applications, …) but also to interact with the world surrounding it, just like an Arduino. That’s why I qualify it as a mix between a […]
This project is a combination of several difference resources: My single-outlet control project with Raspberry Pi and Python, originally inspired by user wilq44’s Raspberry Pi GPIO home automation WiringPi, software written by Gordon Henderson that allows “Arduino style” control of the GPIO pins from the command line in a Linux terminal Voice Command, a package […]

Step 1: Hardware Required Raspberry Pi Arduberry Dexter Industries Playstation 2 Controller Shield for Arduino A Playstation 2 controller or a similar clone (Please Check the wiki […]
Most Raspberry Pi garage door remotes had open ports, or other features I wasn’t too fond of. So I created my own that contains much more security, logging of who opens the garage, video capture, garage status and more. Features: 100% secure garage door operation, with access control lists. Only authorized family members can open. […]
The Pumpkin PACS was constructed for the MGH Radiology Pumpkin Decorating Contest. It is a standalone DICOM workstation capable of displaying many standard types of radiology images. The pumpkin contains a Raspberry Pi which projects images onto a screen using a Microvision SHOWWX+ HDMI pico projector. The screen is made of tracing paper. The application displaying […]
