In this project, I wanted to create a surveillance video camera for my library, especially for one particular bookcase, to get notified when someone takes a book or organizes books differently. In that regard, I programmed a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ to capture the first-look thumbnail image and record a video with timestamp according…
The maker Mika Yeap has created a new telescope project combining 3D printed parts, a telescope tube and the Raspberry Pi board. The PiKon is a ‘astro-cam’ telescope powered by a small Raspberry Pi mini PC capable of monitoring and capturing the night sky. The design replaces the conventional eye-piece of a Newtonian reflecting telescope…
“After buying a lot of useful (and not very useful) stuff, I began to think what kind of project should I start. Finally I came to the conclusion that there are a lot of flying and driving drones, but it’s not about underwater drones (ha ha, but as I understand now, I was terribly wrong…
Electronic technician and Raspberry Pi enthusiast Pierre Muth has unveiled a new Raspberry Pi Polaroid camera he has created in the form of the PolaPi-Zero, which uses a thermal printer to provide instant hardcopies of your photographs. The project uses a Raspberry Pi zero equipped with a Pi Camera Module, a 7.2V battery with voltage regulator,…
While some people love that the Raspberry Pi can help them build an awesomely far-fetched device that’s perfect for showing off (but sits on a shelf after the build), others would prefer to make devices that they can use every day. In this article, we’ll discuss some things you can make out of a…
Thanks to the miniature dimensions, you can use the Raspberry Pi Zero to build a tiny camcorder. Devised by Wayne Keenan, the PiCorder uses a Pimoroni HyperPixel screen, Pi Zero camera module, and Zero LiPo plus LiPo battery pack. The PiCorder is probably the slimmest Pi-powered video-recording device ever seen. With a bit of soldering,…
“The SmartiPi Twist is a flexible arm and case that holds a Raspberry Pi Zero ( all versions), official Raspberry Pi camera ( all versions), and Pi zero pHATs (HATs that are the size of a Pi Zero). Both the standard Raspberry Pi camera and Raspberry Pi IR (infrared light) night vision camera will fit…
Halloween might still be a month away, but scaring the crap out of your friends is timeless – and all you’re going to need to pull off a killer prank is: – Raspberry Pi 3 Model B – 19’’ LCD panel – PIR Motion Sensor – Raspberry Pi Camera module This is enough to build…
If you daily spend a lot of time in front of a mirror, I think you could appreciate this mirror’s features: Helps you pick clothes Record videos Voice or Smartphone controlled In my opinion the most exciting feature is the virtual wardrobe. Using a built-in Raspberry Pi camera, you can photograph yourself and create a…
