This is my make-through for the week's assignment. Grab a cup of coffee!
This week is about Raspberry Pi.
I'm excited to use a Raspberry pi as I've never really dealt with a real Raspberry pi before.
I have read a lot about it and the projects that can be done with it.
so lets do it
40 pin GPIO headers
when addressing the pins in the code we have to import the GPIOs library which is installed by default.
in my code imported it by writing [ import RPi.GPIO as GPIO ]
first, u need to install the OS on the SD card
from the terminal type (sudo raspi-config) and press enter, follow the following screenshot to
Enable the SSH
Enable the VNC
connect it with the pc
know the raspberry IP address
then use the VNC viewer app to connect it with your pc
connect the LED and the (350 Ω) resistor to GPIO PIN 13 at the raspberry pi
Connect the PIR sensor to the GPIO PIN 11
Make the power (5 V) and ground (GND) connections as shown in the
What I learned this week is...
work with the raspberry pi and know about the various projects that I can do with it
difference between Raspberry pi (microprocessor-based) and Arduino(microcontroller-based )
how to setup raspberry pi
some basic commands to use Linux operating system.
Use GPIO pins from Processing as an alternative programming tool
make some basic projects using raspberry pi
