The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It is a little computer which can be used in electronics projects, and for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games.

One of the most important things I have seen in my life. I have researched on it for a long time. Presently having 2 models with me namely, Raspberry Pi model A and B. Works like wonder.

THE BEAUTY:

The beauty of raspberry pi lies in bridging the gap between software developers and Electronics Developers. In future I hope that the computers that will be available in the market will be made out of Raspberry Pi.

PROJECTS:

So I am going to discuss some of the great working projects made by People around the Globe.

1.Lap Pi - A Raspberry Pi Netbook

The basic idea is simple. Put a Raspberry Pi inside an aluminum case, wire it up to a screen, keyboard, mouse & batteries. Then plug in a USB hub, connect Wifi, Blue tooth, and the receiver for a wireless keyboard. IT also needs to extend the Network port, add a headphone socket & speakers, fit in a battery pack, and then wire it all together!

2.MOBILE-PI:

The project is quite simple.The task is to make an ultra portable, mobile Raspberry Pi that you can take to-go. Quite Impressive work done by Nathan Morgan.

3.SNAP-PI CAM:

The Snap Pi Cam is a D.I.Y. Digital Camera you can build at home. It is a great weekend project and is easily assembled with the most basic of tools by just about anyone. The idea for the Snap Pi Cam is based on how to build a Touch-screen camera.

JAM EVENTS:

Raspberry Jams are events organized by the Pi community all around the world. They’re set up so you can share knowledge, learn new things, and meet other Pi enthusiasts. They’re a great way to find out more about the Raspberry Pi and what you can do with it, and to find like-minded people. Discover what Raspberry Jams are all about, and learn more about how to find one near you, or how to set one up yourself.

Cambridge Raspberry jam:

The Cambridge Raspberry Jam – known as CamJam – is organised by Michael Horne and Tim Richardson. It runs roughly every three months and is a mixture of practical workshops, technical talks, show-and-tell and a popular marketplace. Tickets are normally priced at £2-3 for adults, and are free for those 16 and under. Proceeds from ticket sales go towards running future Jams and increasing the amount of equipment we have available for workshops. In December, they will be running what we hope will be an annual robotics competition called Pi Wars.Jams are popular with hobbyists, educators and families, and they regularly welcome over 150 people to the event.
