Synopsis

Explore the powers of Raspberry Pi and build your very own projects right out of the box

Key Features:

- From robotics to gaming; this Learning Path will unlock your creativity!

- Build your own impressive IoT projects to transform your home

- Featuring some of Packt's very best Raspberry Pi content; this Learning Path doesn't just get you to your destination - it opens up a whole horizon of possibilities!

Book Description:

Looking for inspiration for your next Raspberry Pi project? Not sure where to begin? This Learning Path is the perfect place to begin; providing you with an accessible yet comprehensive journey through Raspberry Pi. Following three modules; you'll soon be confident and prepared to get creative with your microcomputer.

Raspberry Pi by Example is the first module in this Learning Path - and it does exactly what it says. It doesn't just teach; it shows you how to go and build some awesome Raspberry Pi projects immediately. Build and play your own games with the Pi; build a complete Internet of Things home automation system that controls your house through Twitter... let your imagination run wild!

In the next module we'll look in more depth at building a home security system. You'll be using some of the skills you devoped through the first module; but apply them to something more intricate and impressive. Using a Linux based operating system as the foundations; you'll gradually build up an entire security infrastructure adding cameras; remote controls; and even intrusion alerts!

In the final module; we'll take you into the world of Raspberry Pi robotics. By the end of it; you'll have built a biped robot that can interact with its environment!This Learning Path combines some of the best that Packt has to offer in one complete; curated package. It includes content from the following Packt products:

He has worked on single-board computers such as Raspberry Pi and Banana Pro. He is also proficient with microcontroller boards such as Arduino and the BBC Micro: bit. He is currently self-employed and teaches on Udemy and YouTube. He also organizes programming boot camps for working professionals and software companies.

Richard Grimmett has more fun that should be allowed working on robotics projects while teaching Computer Science and Electrical Engineering at Brigham Young University Idaho. He has a Bachelors and Masters degree in Electrical Engineering and a PhD in Leadership Studies. He also has 26 years of experience in the Radar and Telecommunications industries, and even has one of the original brick phones. He has written books on the basics of using the BeagleBone Black for robotics projects, and another for the Raspberry PI and yet another for the Arduino.

Arush Kakkar is a computer vision and deep learning researcher and an undergraduate at Delhi Technological University. His primary focus is on autonomous robotics, which includes drones and self-driving cars, and he has been involved in building such systems in different capacities, such as navigation, localization, path planning. He has also leveraged state-of-the art computer vision and deep learning technologies for them. He is the electrical systems head of the Solar Car team of his university, Solaris DTU. He is currently working on his own driverless car company, CruiseX, which uses deep learning to drive more smoothly and with fewer errors.
