Robin Newman has taken a 30-year old glockenspiel, some solenoids, a RasPiO ProHAT and a custom circuit and hooked it up to a Raspberry Pi. The code is in two parts: a Python part which accepts OSC signals and then communicates…
Hi everyone. Caught a particularly nasty chest infection and flu on the flight back from Belfast, hence the lack of updates. I’m about 60% at the moment, but wanted to try and keep the bloggage going as best I can!…
Robin Newman has taken a Raspberry Pi, a RasPiO Pro HAT and an Adafruit MPR121 touch capacitive breakout and created a touch-sensitive keyboard for Sonic Pi. He’s documented the whole process over on his blog along with all the installation instructions and…
Robin Newman has recently been experimenting with Python OSC which, among other things, can be used to tie Python and Sonic Pi’s Ruby implementation together. This way, you can control a device driven by Python from inside Sonic Pi. Once such…
This page is an attempt to list lots of the people who make the Raspberry Pi Community one of the greatest resources available when you’re trying to get started, or when you’re trying to expand your knowledge. They are presented…
Gareth over at 4tronix has just launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund McRoboFace: 17 bright (Neopixel-type) RGB LEDs in a “friendly face” formation. The board is controllable from a Raspberry Pi, Crumble, Arduino and other base boards. I’ve featured the…
Robin Newman, who managed to do far more with Sonic Pi than I ever could, has done it again. This time, he’s programmed Sonic Pi with some voice samples which sends commands, via a (pretty darned excellent) PiCon Zero controller board, to two 4tronix…
Robin Newman, who does some wonderful stuff with Sonic Pi amongst other things, recently received his RasPiO ProHAT experimenter’s kit and set himself a project. The project involved taking the components from the kit and adding a couple of capacitors and…
Yesterday, I posted a video (see below) of a MeArm being controlled via a Raspberry Pi and Picon Zero using a PS3 controller. Now, I’m extraordinarily pleased to hear that Robin Newman has posted more details on the project, including…
I recently reviewed the Picon Zero from 4tronix. It’s a motor controller board with the ability to drive six servos and two DC motors. It’s a great little board and Robin Newman has done something with it that just appeals…
