The Raspberry Pi Foundation's Ben Nuttall shares why the Python programming language is such a popular choice for kids, educators, and Raspberry Pi aficionados alike.

Two and a half years ago, I found myself sitting in a car with Eben Upton about three days into my new job at Raspberry Pi. We discussed – among other things – everything we wanted to do with the Raspberry Pi hardware and with the products around the Pi. One of the things we discussed …

The Raspberry Pi is an incredibly cool and fun little piece of hardware. We are going to use the RetroPie Project, which gives us emulators for a ton of old school gaming consoles.

OSMC is a Linux-based free and open source media center.

Pi Wars is an event at which Raspberry Pi-powered robots compete against each other in various challenges to win prizes and to take the title of Best Robot. Last year, we had 20 teams competing, and around 200 spectators.

Inspired by the idea of having a home that has a life of its own, I settled on a home automation project to control the lights in my living room. The goal of my project was to be able to time the lights in my living room and control them remotely over the Internet using a Web browser.

This is an early '80s Sharp VC-2300H portable VCR that I've converted - it now has a Raspberry Pi at its heart, running the excellent Raspbmc media c...

If you’re like me, you've toyed with the idea of getting an AirPort Express but the $100 price seemed a bit steep, since all you really wanted to do with it is play audio using AirPlay. You can turn a Raspberry Pi into an AirPlay speaker.

Over the past couple of years, I have had mixed feelings about Raspberry Pi as a HTPC, because even after using all possible optimization tricks it simply was not responsive enough for my requirements. Now that a new model and stable release of OSMC operating system is out, is the Raspberry Pi 2 finally ready to replace your HTPC?

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just stream what’s on your PC right to your HDTV set without bringing the whole computer along for the ride? Fortunately for you, us, and everyone else who wants to pipe the powerful gaming goodness of their PC to another screen in their house, there’s a way to leverage the GameStream protocol built into NVIDIA’s mid-to-high-end GPUs.

With night vision you can use the Raspberry Pi as an around-the-clock surveillance camera monitor, baby monitor, or to give vision to a robot.

Raspberry Pi 2 VESA mount case has been created by Thingyverse user 0110-M-P. STEP files of the two halves of the case are attached as well for those who would like to tweak the design for their own use.

Someone would probably say that there are good plug’n’play multiroom audio solutions, so why just waste time on it? It’s very simple, we just like to learn new things, we would like to have the satisfaction if it will work and the most important - we love to have fun ;) In the rest of this post I will try to guide you on how to start your own streaming with Raspberry and Spotify.

BBC Click's Kate Russell gives a step-by-step guide to setting up your own virtual private network using a Raspberry Pi.

The BBC is set to give a free microcomputer away to one million UK school children in October, but how does the BBC Micro Bit compare to the Raspberry Pi 2?

A project to get a gopro-like camera on the front of a ACH helmet for taking video during airsoft games.

Overclocked Raspberry Pi 2 running Arch Linux.

Implementation of a Raspberry Pi doorbell with a proper electrical detection circuit. Many implementation just connect the Pi to the doorbell speaker which is electrically hazardous to the Pi GPIO inputs because the speaker voltage goes below ground (+/- about 0.5 to 1 volts). The circuit that is implemented here uses a diode to clip the negative voltage then charge a capacitor which turns on a transistor that provides a clean 0 to 3.3 volt negative edge to the GPIO pin to generate an interrupt.

This is a tutorial showing you how to monitor ambient room temperature with a Raspberry Pi using an inexpensive waterproof air temperature sensor and …

Learn how to create your own drawbot: a portable CNC plotter using two old CD drives, a servo, and a Raspberry Pi.

Make it easier to listen to your favorite internet radio station around your home by using a Raspberry Pi to broadcast the stream over FM radio.

Microsoft today announced the public release of Windows 10 IoT Core (the tiny version of Windows designed for sensor-laden Internet-connected devices) for two types of maker-friendly hardware: the Raspberry Pi 2 and the MinnowBoard Max.

After 6 months of hard work we are pleased to announce the release of RetroPie 3.0. This retro-gaming project brings together a collection of popular emulators for those computers and consoles that you grew up with from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, all wrapped up and ready to run on the famous Raspberry Pi. From Atari 2600, to Sega Mega Drive to Sony PlayStation, all your favourite systems are covered. What are you waiting for – get playing!

My rev B IBM PC 5150 A couple of months ago I moved my IBM PC into the living room thinking that with a more prominent location I would use it more often. It’s fun to try out ancient software, or use the PC to connect to the occasional surviving BBS. I also like tinkering trying to use the PC to access the modern internet, or at least see if I can. I definitely won't be playing YouTube videos on it, but I can read reddit, or search Google. Because of the nice keyboard and no...

Using a Raspberry Pi, a Pi camera, a few servos, and some Magzor Integrated Circuits (MICs) you can make a camera that will detect and follow your face.

This is C4 Labs' latest Raspberry Pi case. It looks really nice and I figured I'd share it here in case anyone was interested. :)

I've been working hard on a project that allows me to take a Raspberry Pi 2 into the wild outdoors.  While there are many cases out there that work fine in a cabinet or on a desk, I couldn't find one that would work outdoors. I became familiar with weatherproof enclosures when I started tinkering with my Solarbot a couple years ago...

Stepping into the 21st century with the mother of all laptops.

This project is an Open Source 2-axis solar tracker, designed to provide the optimal amount of power output for a portable setup. This has wide-ranging uses from camping to developing countries. I feel the best way to do this is to develop a combination of Open Source software and hardware to enable Makers globally to make and improve the design.

RaspBSD is a image of FreeBSD 11 that is preconfigured in two different images for Raspberry Pi Computers. RaspBSD is a volunteer project headed by FreeBSD Committer Brad Davis. The Goal of this project is to build images easily useable by anyone. Sometimes that means images preloaded with different packages to help new users get started. Initially they will start off pretty basic, but will expand in different directions to support different goals. Initial goals include Education and Ent

I've previously written about Snappy and Unity 8's Snappy Scope, back when I was first getting started on it. Since then, both the scope and Ubuntu Core itself have come a long way, so I thought it was time for an update and a quick demo.

The road to space is long and winding, but the two Astro Pi flight units are almost there! The next thing for us after this is to hand over the final payload to the European Space Agency so it can be loaded onto the Soyuz-45S rocket for launch on December 15th with British ESA Astronaut …

Open Embedded Linux Entertainment Center is a small Linux distribution built from the ground up as a small platform to run software like XBMC. This is done to leave a small footprint as possible. And increase the quality of your experience in total. The most visible change in OpenELEC 6.0 Beta 4 is Kodi 15.1 (Isengard). Beginning with Kodi 15.0 most audio encoder, audio decoder, PVR and visualisation addons are no longer pre-bundled into OpenELEC but can be downloaded from the Kodi addon repo
