It’s a Raspberry Pi-based DJ system which accepts MP3 files via email and enqueues them to be played out through the audio output. The project was their work for Interactivos, a ten day arts and technology workshop […]
For the ITP classes Tech Crafts and Materials and Building Strategies, Scott Garner created the BeetBox, a tuber-based electronic drum machine. The instrument uses six beets connected to capacitive sensors to play samples on a Raspberry Pi. Here are the full details on the internals: Touch sensing is handled by an MPR121 Capacitive Touch Sensor […]
Fellow ITP student William Lindmeier created a project I like a lot called Magpi Radio: Magpi Radio uses text-to-speech to read tweets coming in from various channels. Volume and power are controlled by the knob on the left. Channels can be selected by turning the knob on the right. As you click through channels, the […]
This morning I was lazily browsing Reddit when I came across a project by the Imperial College Robotics Society in the UK. It’s code and instructions for using the Raspberry Pi as a low-power mono FM transmitter. When I saw how easy it looked to do, I ran over to my Pi, downloaded the code, […]
I jumped at the chance to to post this video since it combines a few of our favorite things: Christmas, Raspberry Pi, and Star Wars all rolled into one project. Posting under the name Chivalry Timbers, this maker created a MIDI-synced Christmas light display that uses the Raspberry Pi’s GPIO pins connected to solid state […]
