Introduction In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to send data from cheap WiFi nodes to a Raspberry Pi over an internal WiFi network. It relies on the Flask framework for Python, which is a relatively simple-to-use method of creating a web application that can execute Python scripts. We’ll use a Raspberry Pi 3 and SparkFun ESP8266 Thing to

The Internet of things (Iot) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and connectivity which enables these things to connect, collect and exchange data. Today we will discuss about Simple Iot Projects Using Raspberry PI. Here are Some Simple Iot Projects Using Raspberry PI

Introduction Python is generally more popular as a sequential programming language that is called from the command line interface (CLI). However, several frameworks exist that offer the ability to create slick graphical user interfaces (GUI) with Python. Combined with a single board computer, like the Raspberry Pi, this ability to build GUIs opens up new possibilities

Internet connectivity in an integral part of  various micro-controller projects, specifically those using the atmega328p with arduino ide/avr-gcc. NRF24l01 modules provide an inexpensive and reliable wireless link. In many projects, an additional avr/arduino is hooked up to a computer with internet connection for linking the projects to the internet. Here i will summarize my experience
Overview This is an opportunity to look at another language (Python), another IDE (IDLE) and have another go at Scissors, Paper, Stone. Hardware This is going to use the GPIO pins (the two rows of 13 pins – 26 in total) on the Pi. We’ll connect them to the 3 boxes we used in the

So you got your Raspberry Pi, installed an OS and using it just like your computer. Great! Now what? You didn’t buy a Raspberry Pi just to replace your computer, did you? Well, Raspberry Pi can do a lot more… much more than your computer can do! Did you notice that there are lots of

Solder Pen I had some color Sharpies, which never worked very well, even when I first got them. I just tried them, and all but one, would not even write. I threw them in the trash. Later, I got them out of the trash because I had an idea about how to use the body

This is a fun little demo I threw together in an evening. I’m running Raspbian “wheezy”. Wire up a switch (or switches) to your GPIO port. I have switches connected to GPIO pins 22, 23, and 24. Install RPIO. sudo apt-get install python-setuptools sudo easy_install -U RPIO Install wakeonlan. sudo apt-get install wakeonlan Check that
