Raspberry Pi Automatic Video Looper

http://stevenhickson.blogspot.com/2013/09/raspberry-pi-automatic-video-looper.html Raspberry Pi Automatic Video Looper Download the image here!! Recently I helped out with an Architecture exhibition where they needed 8 projectors looping videos all at the same time. Deciding they didn’t want to pay for 8 computers and pay for the electricity for 8 computers, they contacted me to see if I could help (Pictures to come soon!). They got 8 Raspberry Pis, which together cost less than one PC and use less an energy than one PC. That’s

A simple and good looking case for our Raspberry

  A simple and good looking case for our Raspberry Veröffentlicht am 30 January 2013 von admin — Keine Kommentare ↓  http://www.raspyfi.com/a-simple-and-good-looking-case-for-our-raspberry/ One thing I knew for sure. I was not going to spend 10 euro for a nice and ready case for my raspberry pi. Certainly, I could better spend my money on, hmm let’s say 2 long islands or some fancy ouput capacitors or a P.I.L. Vinyl… So I just got prepared, and I followed what the guy behind Moebius Linux did, you can find his original

Wi-fi on Raspberry Pi, a simple guide

http://www.raspyfi.com/wi-fi-on-raspberry-pi-a-simple-guide/ Wi-fi on Raspberry Pi, a simple guide Veröffentlicht am 19 March 2013 von admin — 10 Kommentare ↓ Since the Raspberry Pi comes only with a wired network, it could be useful for lot of us to get it wi-fi ready. Wi-fi on Raspberry Pi can be achieved with little effort and at cheap expences. We do only require a compatible wi-fi dongle, and the best candidate for the job is the Edimax EW-7811Un. These are the features: Supports 150 Mbps 802.11n, so if

web kiosks and multi-user web workstations

Internet cafe Instant WebKiosk/UB, alias Unrestricted Browsing flavour, is a free operating system designed for web kiosks and multi-user web workstations (cafès, offices, schools, hotels, hospitals, libraries) on standard (even diskless) PC hardware. It is a “live” (no installation required because it boots from USB keys), browser-only (only the browser interface will show up) distribution of Linux Debian. Instant WebKiosk/UB is a fully customizable operating system for Internet browsing purposes, which protects privacy: users can modify its settings runtime but after a reset the operating system defaults to original values and users’ informations

Raspberry Pi + Dropbox Sync

http://cttoronto.com/03/16/2013/raspberry-pi-dropbox-sync/ March 16, 2013 by Marc Pelland For Pi Day, we decided that it would be fun if we built a system that would auto-post photos from the Raspberry Pi to our Facebook and Twitter accounts.  We knew that it would be easier to just run all of it from the computer that was running the game, but this seemed like a good opportunity to learn something about the Raspberry Pi.  As a result, we setup a system that would save images from the webcams in Flash to
