Shrunk down an Arduino to the size of a finger-tip! by Open Source RF RFduino: A finger-tip sized, Arduino compatible, wireless enabled microcontroller, low cost enough to leave in all of your projects! The RFduino has Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy built-in, which enables it to wirelessly talk to any smartphone that has Bluetooth 4.0. Currently we have several open source apps built for the iPhone which were used in our demos. The RFduino has a Nordic 32 bit ARM Cortex-M0 processor, so it has more power then the UNO, however it still runs the same, simple Arduino code the UNO runs, so there is no need to learn any new programming language or environment. The RFduino GPIO lines all support, Digital IO, Analog ADC, SPI, I2C, UART and PWM. The RFduino is similar to the Arduino UNO or DUE, except the RFduino is a fraction of the cost and size, in addition has wireless smartphone connectivity built-in! Up to now, adding wireless to an Arduino required an additional wireless shield which adds cost and size. It can be used with or without Bluetooth 4.0. - Armen
Introducing the Pi Store We’ve been amazed by the variety of software that people have written for, or ported to, the Raspberry Pi. Today, together with our friends at IndieCity and Velocix, we’re launching the Pi Store to make it easier for developers of all ages to share their games, applications, tools and tutorials with the rest of the community. The Pi Store will, we hope, become a one-stop shop for all your Raspberry Pi needs; it’s also an easier way into the Raspberry Pi experience for total beginners, who will find everything they need to get going in one place, for free. The store runs as an X application under Raspbian, and allows users to download content, and to upload their own content for moderation and release. At launch, we have 23 free titles in the store, ranging from utilities like LibreOffice and Asterisk to classic games like Freeciv and OpenTTD and Raspberry Pi exclusive Iridium Rising. We also have one piece of commercial content: the excellent Storm in a Teacup from Cobra Mobile.
With Raspberry Pi and Cotton Candy, Linux Launches a Revolution All the world may be agog over Microsoft's Windows 8 previews this week, but at the same time a quiet revolution is taking place. It's powered by Linux, it costs a fraction of Windows' price, and its first tangible evidence is now available in not just one but two “sweet” forms: Raspberry Pi and Cotton Candy. Like the idea of freedom from the upgrade treadmill and a price that won't put you behind on your rent? Then you may want to check out this new category of computing devices. The Raspberry Pi There's been talk about the ARM-based, education-focused $25 Raspberry Pi for quite some time already, but this week the diminutive device made its official debut. That's been nothing if not exciting to watch, particularly because the launch was so successful that it brought the UK-based project's site to its knees amid overwhelming demand. Premier Farnell and RS Components have both signed up as licensed manufacturers of the devices, the first run of which apparently sold out within an hour or so.

Pi Crust breakout board makes it easy to get peripherals on Raspberry Pi Joe Walnes, a Chicago-based hacker and maker, has just released a design for what he has dubbed the Pi Crust: a very cheap new hardware add-on for the Raspberry Pi. The breakout board, which debuted on Wednesday, is meant to make it easier to tack various hardware peripherals onto the cheap computer, and it does so in an compact design. The new board only adds 2mm of height to the existing Raspberry Pi. As Walnes lays out on his site, there are various well-labelled pins, including GPIO, I2C, SPI, UART, and power. "This makes it so you can connect things directly to a Raspberry Pi. Expanding access to the Raspberry Pi's General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins is probably one of the most important aspects of this add-on—Arduinos, for example, use GPIOs to read from various environmental sensors. "However all the different signals are grouped together, which makes them hard to connect to. Walnes isn’t selling the Pi Crust; he's just making the design specification available.
Configurer la Raspberry sans écran François, Si vous avez accès à votre routeur, vous pouvez utiliser votre routeur pour trouver l'adresse IP de votre RPi, qui devrait être acquis via DHCP. Vous pouvez ensuite SSH à l'aide d'un programme appelé PuTTY. Cela vous permet d'obtenir une fenêtre de console et vous pouvez commencer à configurer le serveur VNC pour exécuter au démarrage. Ensuite, vous pouvez utiliser VNC pour accéder à l'interface graphique de votre RPi. Quant à la carte mémoire, ne vous inquiétez pas à propos de ce que vous voyez dans Windows. Amusez-vous! PS: j'ai utilisé Google Translate pour prendre votre message du français à l'anglais, puis d'écrire cette réponse. There are 10 types of people in this world.
Sneak Peek: Adafruit Raspberry Pi WebIDE September 19, 2012 AT 2:14 pm We love the Raspberry Pi. This tiny computer has so much potential for makers, and it is offered at an extremely reasonable price. The one thing we didn’t like about the Pi is how inaccesible it is to those who are new to Linux. As the name suggests, the Raspberry Pi WebIDE is entirely web based. We have also included a built-in terminal so you can listen to, and talk directly with your Raspberry Pi. We have so many cool things planned for the WebIDE, and expect to have plenty of updates (especially at the beginning). Like I said, this is just a sneak peek, and covers only a few of it’s many features. Stay tuned to the Adafruit blog for more updates. Related Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Spark Linux Tablet Up for Pre-Order, Dev Discusses Economics of Project The upstart Spark Linux tablet is up for pre-order at makeplaylive.com for a target price tag of 200 euros (about $263 USD). You can indicate how many tablets you’re interested in, and your priority number will ensure you’re among the first to receive yours. The Spark folks are hoping to get a strong sense of device demand before the tablet launches. Developer Aaron Seigo also posted a new blog today discussing the financial aspect of the project. Overall, the idea is to put money that comes in back into the project and to Free Software (especially those around open devices) in general. “Where these funds will be targeted will depend on what needs doing, what needs supporting the most and how successful the products are in the market,” said Siego in the post. Seigo notes that part of that will be investing in partnerships with other people and companies that can create software and technologies that enhance Spark.
Programming Raspberry Pi Nearly all of the fuss about the low-cost Raspberry Pi computer's hardware has died down and we finally have some details of its software that is easy enough for the rest of us to follow. So what can you do with it out of the box? Dr Eben Upton, founder of the Raspberry Pi Foundation, has just posted some easy-to-follow details of how to get started programming the Raspberry Pi. It was initially a webinar but if you missed it then you can download the information as a PDF - but be warned there is some strange formatting and repetitions due to the change in presentation format. The first half or so of the presentation is about unboxing and getting started, so the emphasis on hardware hasn't entirely evaporated. Once we do get to the software details then things are much more interesting. The good news is that the boot image contains a program editor, JOE, which features syntax highlighting for Python and C. Notice that this criticism by no means implies that the Raspberry Pi is a failure.

ModMyPi case covers the $35 Raspberry Pi PC for about $13 The Rasbperry Pi is a full-fledged computer which you can buy for about $35. It has a processor, memory, USB and Ethernet ports. But one thing the RaspBerry Pi doesn’t have is a protective case. But a company called ModMyPi is taking pre-orders for a case designed to put some clothes on the Raspberry Pi Model B and make it look respectable. The ModMyI sells for £7.99 including VAT in the UK, or a little less than $13. The cases will start shipping April 5th. Geek.com reports that ModeMyPi will donate 5 percent of the proceeds from case sales to the Raspberry Pi Foundation. The company also sells Raspberry Pi Set-up Kits with an 8GB SD card loaded with Debian Linux, a wireless keyboard and mouse, USB hub, WiFi dongle, and other accessories for £64.99, which is a little over $100 US. The $35 Raspberry Pi has a 700 MHz Broadcom BCM2835 ARM-based processor, 256MB of RAM, HDMI output, 2 USB ports and an Ethernet jack. Raspberry Pi also offers a $25 model without the USB or Ethernet ports.
Raspberry Pi : le micro-PC à 25 euros fait un carton 01net le 29/02/12 à 12h41 Il est en vente ! Le Raspberry Pi, ce PC britannique de la taille d’une carte de crédit, commercialisé à un prix défiant toute concurrence (environ 25 euros !) Inutile de se presser désormais : l’ordinateur est déjà sold out sur les deux sites, et l’un d’entre eux est encore très difficile d’accès à l’heure où nous écrivons ces lignes. Afin de limiter au minimum le coût du PC, les composants ont été sélectionnés avec soin. A noter que le GPU du Pi est suffisamment puissant pour décoder la vidéo HD.
