Libraries, tools and samples that make it easy to use sensors and other hardware devices on the Windows IoT Core platform. Windows IoT Core is already pretty easy to use, but we wanted to make it even easier. This project builds on and extends the following key differentiators of Windows IoT Core: Runs Windows 10 apps written …
The Raspberry Pi Foundation has today announced the availability of its new Raspberry Pi Imager software, created to provide an easy way to image your microSD card with the official Raspberry Pi operating system Raspbian. From today, Raspberry Pi users can download and use the new Raspberry Pi Imager, available for Windows, macOS and Ubuntu. …

It shows how to use a stepper motor, an easy way to rotate a camera, sensor and many other thing. If we are building a security system or a robot we might need to rotate a camera, a sensor or any other component. Stepper motors are ideal for that. A stepper motor is a brushless …
Windows 10 IoT Core on RPI based nRF24L01 field gateway which enables sensor nodes to securely & reliably upload telemetry to AzureIoT Hubs. Overview For school Internet of Things (IoT) projects I needed a robust field gateway for uploading telemetry data from a number “cheap n cheerful” sensor nodes to a Microsoft Azure IoT Hub or Microsoft IoT Central. …

Back to the year that Raspberry Pi 2 was introduced, Microsoft has announced it would support the platform with its slim edition of Windows 10 IoT, which works better on the new 64-bit RPi 3 models. But, what about running the full version of Windows 10 on RPi 3 or 3B+. This is what is …
There was a time when writing embedded systems meant never having to deal with graphical user interfaces, and spending long hours trying to free up a dozen bytes of ROM to add a feature. Nowadays, an embedded system is likely to have a screen and what would have been a huge amount of memory even …
Build an automated door that unlocks itself using facial recognition.Home security systems are a growing field of projects for Makers. A self-built system is not only less expensive than a bulky professional installation, but it also allows for total control and customization to suit your needs. With the introduction of Microsoft’s Project Oxford, facial recognition applications are …
The Raspberry Pi Foundation today started rolling out an update that brings its devices to the Linux 4.19 kernel. Its diminutive computers are currently on the Linux 4.14 kernel, so in updating to 4.19, it should become significantly easier for Raspberry Pi patches to be developed. Phoronix reported that the Raspberry Pi Foundation worked on the upgrade …
The diminutive Raspberry Pi is known for being one of the most popular platforms for hobbyist computing and DIY projects, thanks to its low price point and large user community. One thing it isn’t known for: running Windows. While it’s possible to deploy Windows 10 IoT Core to an RBP, the platform isn’t really intended …
