While the default configuration of your Raspberry Pi doesn’t support reading analog input, you can enhance its capabilities by utilizing an MCP3008 I/P ADC chip, enabling analog input functionality. By establishing a connection between your Raspberry Pi and an MCP3008 I/P chip, you can leverage the power of SPI to read a maximum of 8 […]
One interesting way to test the Raspberry Pi Camera on a Raspberry Pi 3 is by creating a prototype that captures a picture when a button is pressed. This activity allows us to gain hands-on experience in: – Connecting a button to the GPIO ports of a Raspberry Pi. – Setting up the camera using

Project Idea Let me transport you back in time, precisely six years ago, when my 12-year-old son was merely six years old. Ah, the joys of being six! At that age, six-year-olds possess a peculiar sleep schedule. They tend to sleep in on school days, almost missing the bus each morning. However, come Saturdays, they

In Sayanee’s Basu’s video, we can look at the design considerations in the process of taking a breadboard prototype to a custom PCB, from the microcontroller to the various subsystems, to the power, the bootloader, and even how to deal with faulty components. A breadboard can be useful for educational purposes, art projects, and even small

To combine our knowledge of hardware and software by implementing Charlieplexing on the Raspberry Pi as our project’s hardware. Control six LEDs in different sequences using the Raspberry Pi (GPIO) and the internet. Using the Apache and PHP servers installed on the Raspberry Pi for software-to-hardware communication. GPIO stands for General Purpose Input/Output and is
