Raspberry Pi Development

You wait ages for a new Raspberry Pi camera and then two come along together... After the Pi Camera Module 3 released in January, welcome the Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera.

Vodafone has unveiled a prototype 5G network built on a credit card sized Raspberry Pi personal computer and an equally small, advanced silicon chipset. This industry-first concept will enable small businesses and households to extend 5G coverage and increase capacity according to their needs and to have their very own, affordable, and portable private 5G mobile network. By combining the ...

Sfera Labs has added the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4S (CM4S) to options within its range of DIN rail computers. Raspberry Pi aims the CM4S at industrial users migrating from earlier Compute Modules. Loosely based on Raspberry Pi 4 Model B electronics, it comes in the same DDR2-SODIMM-like form factor as the Compute Module 3 and 3+. Sfera’s CM4S-based computers ...

I've been remiss not to flag this one earlier: a sophisticated new version of the Raspberry Pi camera - the Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3.

Industrial computer manufacturer OnLogic has announced Factor 202, built around a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4. “When Raspberry Pi unveiled the CM4, they mentioned that over half of the Raspberry Pi computers sold were being used for industrial and commercial applications,” said OnLogic product manager Mike Walsh. Factor 202 (FR202) measures 201 x 121 x 54mm, can mount on a ...

At next week’s electronica in Munich (15-18 November) Farnell is hosting a competition in association with  nearBees, an online platform designed to assist beekeepers in Germany in establishing and maintaining local honeybee colonies. Members of the element14 Community can enter the Save the Bees design challenge, using Ardunio’s MKR1310 and Arduino Pro Nicla vision boards to create a project that ...

Kontron is to introduce programmable logic controllers based on Raspberry Pi 4 at the SPS 2022 exhibition. At 1.5GHz they will be the fastest of the company’s Pi-based PLCs. “The main field of application of the electronic control based on the Raspberry Pi is in device and machinery construction,” according to the company. “PiXtend Pi 4 comes with the Broadcom ...

This one looks interesting, a new entrant for our virtual Gadget Library: a book about autonomous AI-enabled drones and the Raspberry Pi 4.

element14 has opened submissions for a chance to win PiMassive, a larger-than-life replica Raspberry Pi, which can be displayed as wall art. Applicants are encouraged to be creative in their application and express why they would like to own this unique prize.  PiMassive was created by Wesley Gardner for the element14 PiCasso Design Challenge, and was completed in 2019 after ...

Fold-up bicycle maker Brompton has over 100 Raspberry Pi single-board computers running its London factory, used in applications as diverse as production-line monitoring and air quality control. “We have this philosophy here at Brompton, that if we need to capture data anywhere on the factory floor, we throw a Pi at it,” said Brompton software engineer Kane Tracey.
