Raspberry Kit

[KMatle]

I've ordered this nice box. It just came in.

- all in a box and packed very clean
- nice parts, cables, etc.

But.. Where is the RaspBerry PI?

Nah, it's a kit FOR the Raspberry

Very nice.
Whatcha gonna build?

That kit is good for arduino , less for raspberry.

It's a package. Most of the parts can be used.

@lte5000 Yesterday we started with the breadboard and this https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/iot-raspberry-2-piface-outputs.60029/

We put a 7-digit segment on the board and wired it to the outputs of the RB. Today we will use the 74HC595 Chip (it's a bitshifter) to control the digit(s). It has a serial input (you can send a simple bitstream to control the digit instead of wiring every segment). Next steps: Take the 8x8 segment and play with it (we will need a bigger bitshifter for that - 16Bit).

There's a LCD display, too which works the same way ("stream" some bits and text will be shown). Take a look to the tutorials. I will post the results there.

Thanks, I will keep an eye out for updates.

I have an Arduino that I use with B4J. I haven't bought a Raspberry Pi yet, but maybe soon.

I currently use the Arduino + B4J + B4A for a remote garage door opener app at the shop where I work.
