Raspberry Pi

Raspberry Pi is an amazing credit-card sized computer most suited for IoT based applications and online servers like Print server, webserver, Media server. Many types of custom ROMs and custom operating systems are available for Raspberry Pi and you just need to burn the custom ROM on SD card and insert it in Raspberry Pi. Like Windows 10 and Android can be easily installed…

Designers use many wireless communication systems like Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 4.0), Zigbee, ESP8266 Wi-Fi Modules, 433MHz RF Modules, Lora, nRF etc. And the selection of medium depends on the type of application it is being used in. Among all, one popular wireless medium for local network communication is the nRF24L01. These modules operate on 2.4GHz (ISM band) with baud…

Raspberry Pi is the pocket sized computer having almost all the feature of a normal computer including USB port, LAN port, audio/video output, HDMI port etc. There are many official and unofficial third party operating systems are available for Raspberry Pi and we previously installed few of them on Raspberry pi like:

Analog to digital conversion is a very important task in embedded electronics, as most of the sensors provide output as analog values and to feed them into microcontroller which only understand binary values, we have to convert them into Digital values. So to be able to process the analog data, microcontrollers need Analog to Digital Converter.

Some…

Bluetooth is one of the revolutionary technology to wirelessly transfer the data, control other devices, build home automation systems etc. But have you ever wondered that the Bluetooth can also be used for broadcasting any information to nearby devices to display important information, advertisements, easy checkout etc. There is a protocol developed by the Google to perform…

WhatsApp is one of the most popular and widely used messaging app but its only available for Smartphones and don’t work on computers. But there is a way to install it on palm sized computer Raspberry Pi and it works quite well using command line interface.

There is a Python library to access all capabilities of an…

Pico Technology released fully supported software package for the popular and inexpensive single-board computer, the Raspberry Pi. The latest software package is optimised and tested on the new Raspberry Pi 4 along with the current 3B and 3B+ on Raspbian Stretch. The new PicoLog 6 data logging software package offers a visual and easy-to-use interface allowing users to…

The Raspberry pi 4 is out and it's an absolute delight for the Raspberry Pi Fans! Ever since the release of the first Raspberry Pi 1 Model B in 2012, the Raspberry Pi foundation has continually sort to improve on it releasing one version after the other, each carrying improvements over the previous release, from improvements on storage, to processing speed, to communication…

The Raspberry Pi 4 is finally out with lots of loaded features and it is assumed to replace the Desktop/PC in a credit card size computers. The Raspberry Pi Foundations has confirmed that the Raspberry Pi 4 will be priced at $35 (Approx 2500 in INR) in 1GB RAM Variant and comes in upto 4GB RAM for other variants. The other variant such as 2GB RAM will be priced at $45 and…

Raspberry Pi is a palm sized computer having in-built Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Ethernet port, Camera port etc. which makes it most suitable microcontroller for IoT based embedded applications. It is also used to make many kind of servers like Print server, Media Server, Web Server etc. Today we will learn how a Raspberry Pi can convert a normal speaker having 3.5mm jack into a…

TeamViewer is one of the most commonly used software to access the screen of some other computer remotely. It is same as RealVNC but with more features, like in RealVNC you can do text messaging and video conferencing while accessing the systems. TeamViewer is hugely popular for giving remote access of your system to others for troubleshooting or some other work. This…

Ever wondered if there was a way to make simple prototypes of IoT solutions without having to spend days writing codes or to build practical advanced projects without coding. Yes, this is possible with the Node-Red Platform. Developed by IBM, Node-RED is an open-source programming tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services in new and interesting way…
