Raspberry Pi 4x4x4 LED Cube

Raspberry Pi 4x4x4 LED Cube

I’ve been fascinated with LED cubes for a while now, but haven’t been able to bring myself to build an Arduino-based cube. They turn on quickly and nicely, yes, but writing the code is a horrible mess of bits and bytes. The Raspberry Pi’s Python-based GPIO interface was much more appealing (and readable) to me,

LED candle with Raspberry Pi

The General Purpose Input/Output pins (GPIO) give you power to interact with the real world using your Raspberry Pi. This project will get you comfortable with using the GPIO pins, which will form the backbone of the final project. Traditionally the ‘Hello World’ program for electronics prototyping is simply turning a light on and off.

How to use soft PWM in RPi.GPIO 0.5.2a pt 2 – led dimming and motor speed control

In part 1 of this series, we looked at the basic commands for using software pulse-width modulation (PWM) in RPi.GPIO 0.5.2a and higher. In this article we’ll get a bit more hands-on and into some practical applications for it. It’s all very well being able to make nice square-wave pulses on an oscilloscope, but what’s

LED Rubiks Cube With Arduino

LED Rubik’s Cube With Arduino

In this instructable I’ll show you how you can build your own LED Rubik’s cube. This project was done for an introductory electronics course at Pomona College. Groups were given approximately two months to complete a project of their choosing, the only requirement being that the project rely on electronics built by the students. Our
