How to Set a Static IP on Raspberry Pi? If you've ever worked with a Raspberry Pi, you’ve probably run into that annoying moment when your Raspberry Pi just disappears from the network. You try to SSH into it or access a local web dashboard, but suddenly it's not there. You fire up the terminal and type ping raspberrypi.local, and nothing. It turns out, your router handed the Pi a different IP address this… |

Raspberry Pi-Based DIY Robot 'Saras' Combines Speech, Vision, and Autonomy Creator Jack Of All Tech built a personal robot that can move, speak, listen, respond, and make decisions all on its own. It’s called Saras, and the name stands for Smart Autonomous Robotic AI System. It’s made up of a Raspberry Pi, some sensors, wiring, 3D printed body parts, a microphone, a speaker, and DC motors. It has a wake word system, so it does not react to random sounds, just like… |

Raspberry Pi Releases Standalone IMX708 Camera Sensor Assemblies Raspberry Pi has announced that Camera Module 3 Sensor Assemblies are now available as standalone products starting at $15. The Camera Module 3 was originally launched approximately 2.5 years ago and is widely used in hobbyist projects, as well as in industrial and embedded applications. These new sensor assemblies stemmed from the need for smaller form factors that were required in some… |

Edge AI Wildlife Detection Using Raspberry Pi Zero and Smart Camera Luke Ditria has created a tinier and less expensive version of a wildlife-monitoring device that he built earlier. The tool makes use of AI to detect animals in real time, without needing the internet. The original version’s use of a Raspberry Pi 5 and Hailo AI accelerator led to its increased price. This compact version uses a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and a smart camera that has AI built into it… |

DIY Robotic Arm with Brushless DC Motors and Raspberry Pi JesseDarr’s new project is different from the usual DIY robotics project. He has made a robotic arm called dARM. It is a robotic arm with 6 degrees of freedom, and most of the parts are 3D printed. He has used brushless DC motors for its working rather than servo motors. These are the kind of motors you would usually find in more advanced machines, and they help the arm move more smoothly and… |

Raspberry Pi Expands Compute Module 4 Lineup with Extended Temperature Range Raspberry Pi has announced new variants of the Compute Module 4 (CM4) with an extended operating temperature range, making them suitable for more demanding environments. While Raspberry Pi devices were originally designed for education, they are now widely used in industrial and embedded applications, where they must operate reliably under extreme conditions. The standard CM4 has been… |

An RP2040-Powered Cyberdeck That Runs on MicroPython We have seen cyberdecks built around Raspberry Pi and other single-board computers, but this is the first time we’ve come across one powered by dual RP2040 chips. In a recent video, Abe from Abe’s Projects presents a compact cyberdeck using the Pimoroni PicoVision, a board that combines two RP2040 microcontrollers—one acting as a CPU and the other as a GPU—to drive an HDMI display. This setup… |

This DIY Submarine Explores The Ocean on Its Own A team of DIY engineers is working on building a fully autonomous submarine. They are different from the previous models that rely on joysticks for navigation and control. The new design aims to navigate independently into the depths of the ocean. One big challenge is that GPS doesn’t work underwater, so the submarine has to… |
