Raspberry Pi Sensors

This book is perfect for hardware enthusiasts who want to develop amazing projects using Raspberry Pi. Some knowledge and experience working with Linux, C, and Python is a plus, but once you're set up to go, you'll be ready to push the creative capabilities of your Raspberry Pi even further.

The tiny Raspberry Pi device contains the power to revolutionize the way we understand computing. Built with a Linux-based operating system, it is a tool that invites exploration and experimentation, and can be repurposed and integrated with other hardware and software to help create some truly exciting projects.

With Raspberry Pi Sensors you will learn how to get more from your Raspberry Pi and dive deeper into its engineering by exploring its Linux-based OS before learning how to develop and execute programs on it using Python and C. You'll then find a range of projects like creating your own ultrasonic sensor to monitor the atmosphere, connect your Raspberry Pi to the Internet so you can upload data online and use it as a launchpad to create Internet of Things based projects. Learn how to create your own image sensor using a simple USB camera and the innovative OpenCV library to perform motion detection.
