Great to see you all after a long time. Just came up with a simple tutorial on how to use the PIR Sensor without any microcontroller. It will also help you understand the importance of a transistors specifically. We are in the place we hold billions of transistors in our hand (saying about a Smartphone), but it all comes...
ABU ROBOCON (Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union Robot Contest) is a largest international robot contest celebrating it's 20th anniversary ROBOCON at Jimo, China on this year (2021). The ABU ROBOCON brings us an exciting ancient game of china 'Throwing Arrows into pot' with the help of new technology using robots. The competing teams build their robots according to the rulebook and...
According to the SD specifications, any SD card larger than 32GB is an SDXC card and has to be formatted with the exFAT filesystem. This means the official SD Formatter tool will always format cards that are 64GB or larger as exFAT. The Raspberry Pi's bootloader, built into the GPU and non-updateable, only has support for reading from FAT filesystems (both FAT16 and...
Raspberry Pi 4B was launched recently and everyone is busy in grabbing their favorite Raspberry Pi's. But many of them have some doubts regarding the HDMI Ports. Because the Raspberry Pi 4 comes with a micro HDMI Ports. And if you think the Pi Zero's Adapter will work with that, then it is wrong (Pi Zero uses mini HDMI). Let's...
RFID is an acronym for Radio Frequency Identification and refers to a technology whereby digital data encoded in RFID tags or RFID cards (the one you use it in your Office or College ID Cards with RFID) that are captured by a reader via radio waves. RFID is similar to barcoding in that data from a tag or cards are...
Think of carrying a Keyboard, Display and Mouse separately for a small Raspberry Pi. It's little odd right?. There is an option to use your own laptop hardware (Keyboard, Mouse and Display) with the Raspberry Pi. This guide will help you to get it done. Using Ethernet cable (No Router needed) you can directly connect the Raspberry pi with...
In a recent blog post, Raspberry Pi has published a pic that a Raspberry Pi Camera captured a Soyuz aircraft in the Space. The Blog as follows... So this happened. And we are buzzing! You’re most likely aware of the Astro Pi Challenge. In case you’re not, it’s a wonderfully exciting programme organised by the European Space Agency (ESA) and us at Raspberry...
In our previous blog, we have seen how to upload sensor data to ThingSpeak. Now we will see how to use this to update the street light data into ThingSpeak cloud. In this project, we will use the LDR to detect the day/night environment and turns on the LED during night time as well as update the data to...
An RGB LED is an integrated LED with all three primary colors in it, RED, GREEN and BLUE. Using an RGB LED we can make all other colors by mixing a proper amount of these three colors. The amount of voltage applied to each pin specifies the amount of colors it emits. This is called additive mixing. There are two...
