Building our centralized web-controlled home video surveillance system. Second episode. In the first episode of this series, dedicated to the creation of a video surveillance system, based on Raspberry Pi and the MotionEye application, we saw how to install the software necessary for our architecture and how to configure a first video camera connected…
In this tutorial, you will learn how to set up a Raspberry Pi with Codesys to act as both a PLC and an EtherCAT master. It will be used to control the on-board LED found on the EtherCAT Arduino Shield by Esmacat (EASE) Slave device that is attached to an Arduino Uno. First, some general…
To keep a eye on the current Corona-Virus numbers I created this Programm wich displays the current stats to the Display. More info
https://youtu.be/Hfab9JSf1BA Just to make it very clear, this project is meant to provide some comic relief during these times, it’s not meant to disregard the severity of the current situation. Please follow the latest guidelines for your area, stay home, stay safe and take care of each other! More info
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…
Since the day I heard about and got to play with the Raspberry Pi one a few years ago I’ve wanted to make a Raspberry Pi powered laptop out of it and now with the rease of the Raspberry Pi three I’ve decided to finally see it through. Now this isn’t my first time…
An accessible powered prosthetic — open-source and affordable. Simple, effective, assistive tech developed to accommodate continuous development. Brought to you by a bunch of hardworking undergraduates enamored with a vision of a future where robotics is widely used to improve the quality of life for all. While new technology endeavors are often profligate, our…
What to do with such a Lego collection? Digging through it to find Just the Right Piece can be frustrating, and bringing order to the chaos with manual sorting is just so impractical. How about putting some of those bricks to work with a machine-vision Lego sorter built from Lego? The main component of this…
In this project we will create a tiny wooden laptop. Useful, light and easily transportable, we will use a Raspberry Pi 3+ and a touchscreen. More info
Build you own voice-controlled robot car! Alexa analyzes your speech and sends data to a server which computes them. Then data are sent bach to Raspberry Pi Zero which gives commands to a Micro:bit board. More info Buy Raspberry Pi Zero and Micro:bit starter kit from our store!
Using Python and open source software we publish data from a sensor over MQTT, persist the data and visualise it in real-time. More info Buy Raspberry Pi and Fishino boards from our store!
In theory, every time you go to the coffee machine for your morning cup, there’s only a one-in-twenty chance you’ll have to fill the water tank. In practice, however, it seems that the machine somehow finds a way to always put this chore on you. The more you want coffee, the more likely you are…
