Introduction to the Raspberry Pi

  • Artisan's Asylum 10 Tyler Street Somerville, MA, 02143 United States (map)

This class will provide an overview of the Raspberry Pi and its operating system. Students will build simple applications using GPIO, a stepper motor and a camera module. Experience with Python and Linux would be useful but is not necessary.

Class Goals
Students will learn how to use a Raspberry Pi as a desktop computer. They will also build three separate, simple applications, which will expose students to different important features of the Pi. Students will be provided with a Pi and all of the necessary hardware (there will be a materials fee) and example programs.
