When taking photos, most of us simply like to press the shutter button on our cameras and phones so that viewable image is produced almost instantaneously, usually encoded in the well-known JPEG format. However, there are some applications where a little more control over the production of that JPEG is desirable. For instance, you may The post Processing raw image files from a Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera appeared first on Raspberry Pi.

Fly through the clouds in our re-creation of Konami’s classic 1980s shooter. Mark Vanstone has the code Arguably one of Konami’s most successful titles, Time Pilot burst into arcades in 1982. Yoshiki Okamoto worked on it secretly, and it proved so successful that a sequel soon followed. In the original, the player flew through five eras, The post Recreate Time Pilot’s free-scrolling action | Wireframe #41 appeared first on Raspberry Pi.

When we announced new keyboards for Portugal and the Nordic countries last month, we promised that you wouldn’t have to wait much longer for a variant for Japan, and now it’s here!

One of our favourite makers, Pi & Chips (AKA David Pride), wanted to see if they could trigger a DSLR camera to take pictures by using motion detection with OpenCV on Raspberry Pi. You could certainly do this with a Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera, but David wanted to try with his swanky new Lumix The post DSLR motion detection with Raspberry Pi and OpenCV appeared first on Raspberry Pi.

One of our favourite YouTubers, Harrison McIntyre, decided to make the aphorism “a watched pot never boils” into reality. They modified a tabletop burner with a Raspberry Pi so that it will turn itself off if anyone looks at it. In this project, the Raspberry Pi runs facial detection using a USB camera. If the The post Raspberry Pi won’t let your watched pot boil appeared first on Raspberry Pi.

We’ve really enjoyed starting a series of seminars on computing education research over the summer, as part of our strategy to develop research at the Raspberry Pi Foundation. We want to deepen our understanding of how young people learn about computing and digital making, in order to increase the impact of our own work and The post Gender balance in computing: current research appeared first on Raspberry Pi.

Setting up a Raspberry Pi VPN connection is easy. Once subscribed to a VPN service you can access the internet using it and protect your privacy. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) creates an encrypted tunnel between your computer and a remote server. All your internet traffic is routed through the tunnel and appears to the [...] The post Raspberry Pi VPN Setup Guide appeared first on Raspberry Pi Spy.

The Pi Zero has no Ethernet port. If your project requires Ethernet you can add it using either an Ethernet module or a USB to Ethernet adapter. At this point someone is going to question why you would want to add Ethernet to a Pi Zero. Why not just use a standard Pi which already [...] The post Adding Ethernet to a Pi Zero appeared first on Raspberry Pi Spy.
