In a prior tutorial, I detailed the process of establishing an SSH connection to your Raspberry Pi using an ethernet connection, all without the need for an external keyboard or monitor. While connecting via an ethernet cable is a solid option if you intend to maintain a physical cable connection to your router, my preference […]

This guide compiles various online instructions required to establish a connection between the latest version of RaspbianOS and UVA’s eduroam WiFi network. The following four sets of instructions need to be followed: My previous instructions, which are now obsolete. Prof. Luther A. Tychonievich’s instructions for configuring Linux on eduroam. A guide from Reddit on configuring

Living in a bustling city often means facing the risk of having your valuable car or motorbike damaged, tipped over, or stolen when parked on the street. Finding a nearby lockup space is a challenge, which is why I’ve attempted to gather a few components to create a system that can alert me and prompt
Several months ago, I was determined to build the bandwidth monitor posted by Legufix here on Instructables (instructables.com/Bandwidth-Monitor). I ordered the Raspberry Pi Zero and gathered other materials, but I wondered if I could just use the 7″ Raspberry Pi touchscreen that I had left over from another project. It would require a few changes

I have an old iPad which has been dropped so many times that a piece of wire fell out the side, and I think that wire was the WiFi antenna. The iPad can only connect to WiFi when it’s close to the access point or when the signal is very strong. I figured out that

Objective Our goal was to solve the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) problem by using WiFi measurements. Specifically we wanted to implement this paper, where they solved SLAM through a Graph SLAM formulation with WiFi signal strength and movement data from an IMU. Due to the constraints of graph SLAM, data would first be collected, and then
I. Introduction Even the basic features of consumer devices often require an internet connection as mobileoperating systems shift to cloud-hosted platforms for services like photo storage, messaging,video playback, etc. While the expansion of mobile data networks has helped to provide “alwayson” connections for these devices, users are consuming more and more data at an unanticipatedrate.

The easiest way to get your Raspberry Pi connected to the Internet at the University of Virginia is to use an Ethernet cable. If you want to use wireless, pretty much the only option is to use the hidden “wahoo” network. This is a quick tutorial for getting your Raspberry Pi to connect to the

The daemon hostapd is a Linux service which enables a “host” computer to become a WiFi Access Point (AP).   Thus “host” + “AP” + “d” (for daemon) gives the name hostapd. I originally learned to set up hostapd from instructions on Pastebin written by user Dryfire117,1 andlater found useful instructions on the Raspberry Pi website.2 The process originally involved
