Reading Time: 5 minutesOne of our favourite things is sharing the stories of amazing young people, volunteers, and educators who are using their passion for technology to create positive change in the world around them. Recently, we had the pleasure of speaking with Isabel, a computer science teacher at Barton Peveril Sixth Form College in Eastleigh, England. She […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesConstruction is simple – simply slot the Gateway Module into the HAT’s mini PCIe connector, and slot the HAT on top of your Raspberry Pi. There are external antennas to add as well, including a fancy GPS module in case you need to know its location. From source The software is a little more involved […]
Reading Time: 3 minutes“[It’s a] technical version of a magnifying glass to help people with low vision,” Markus tells us. “It’s basically a camera that can be connected to any HDMI screen, with a simple interface to scale and modify images. There are lots of professional devices out there, and a few DIY takes on the category as […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteWhile we’ve not had enough time to assess it for review yet, we’ve had a chance to play with one for a bit with a Raspberry Pi 5 and we’re very intrigued by it. CrowView has speakers, a webcam, a microphone, and an in-built battery so all you need to do is provide a Raspberry […]
Reading Time: 3 minutesWhat is your history with being a maker? As a kid, I was always taking things apart to see how they worked. Most of those things even got put back together. Taking after my older brother, I started tinkering with electronics when I was a teen. Continuing to follow in my brother’s footsteps, I ended […]
