Following up on our Raspberry Pi programming course is the next lesson. In the previous post, we learned how to construct an FM radio using a Raspberry Pi. Analog FM broadcasting's circuit construction was also studied in detail. How to use a Raspberry Pi as an internet speed meter and save the data in Grafana or Google Drive is the subject of this article.
You can use this article if you want to keep track of how your downloads, uploads, and ping speeds change over time, and it's easy to use. In addition, you can use this to determine when your internet is at its busiest or if your internet speed has deteriorated. We'll demonstrate how to use Ookla's Internet speed test command-line interface in conjunction with Python code to create an internet speed meter.

Welcome to the next tutorial of our Raspberry Pi programming course. Our previous tutorial taught us to how to tweet from Raspberry pi. We also discussed some methods used by the tweepy library to perform some API calls in our project. We will learn how to print from a Raspberry pi in this lesson.
Let us get started
There are several benefits of having a print server. Print servers may link numerous computers to one or multiple printers, either physically or wirelessly, allowing you to access the printer with various devices and send print instructions from all the other connected computers.
It is not easy to print from an Android smartphone to a cabled printer; however, a printer server makes it simple. A print server is useful in small workpl ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, we are going to start Section-III of our Raspberry Pi 4 Programming Course. In this section, we will interface different Embedded Sensors with Raspberry Pi 4. Today's our first lecture in Section-III, so I am going to interface a simple LDR sensor with RPi4.
So, let's get started:

Thank you for joining us today for our in-depth Raspberry Pi programming tutorial. The previous guide covered the steps necessary to connect a fingerprint scanner to a Raspberry Pi 4. In addition, we developed a python script to complement the sensor's ability to identify fingerprints. Yet, in this guide, we'll discover how to interface a ws2812 RGB to a Raspberry Pi 4.
Bright, colorful lights are the best, and this tutorial shows you how to set up Fully Configurable WS2812B led strips to run on a Pi 4 computer as quickly and flexibly as possible. In that manner, you can have the ambiance of your home reflect your tastes.
In most cases, when people talk about a "WS2812B Strip," they mean a long piece of extensible PCB with a bunch of different RG ...
Hello friends, I hope all are fine. Today, we are going to share the 3rd chapter of Section-III in our Raspberry Pi Programming Course. In our previous lecture, we interfaced the Soil Moisture Sensor with Raspberry Pi 4. Today, we are going to Interface the Infrared(IR) sensor with RPi4. IR Sensor is typically employed for the presence/motion detection of objects in the immediate area. With their low power consumption, straightforward design, and user-friendly features, IR sensors are a popular choice for detection purposes. Infrared(IR) impulses are invisible to the naked eye and lie between the visible and microwave parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. So let's get started:

Hey Fellas! Hope you are doing great. Our team always keeps your needs and demands on the top so you keep coming back for what we have to offer.
Based on recent comments and suggestions given by our valuable visitors, I have decided to arrange all of our Raspberry Pi 3 projects so you get a clear idea What is Raspberry Pi 3 and How it is used for the execution of many projects?
Are you feeling skeptical about learning Raspberry Pi 3 basics? Don't you worry, I have got you covered. I'll arrange all articles related to raspberry pi 3 in a sequence from beginner to pro level, so you find all information in one place and grab the main concept easily. Let's dive in and explore each and everything related to Raspberry Pi 3.

Introduction
Thank you for joining us for yet another session of this series on Raspberry Pi programming. In the preceding tutorial, we implemented a speech recognition system using raspberry pi and used it in our game project. We also learned the fundamentals of speech recognition and later built a game that used the user's voice to play. However, this tutorial will integrate a real-time clock with our raspberry pi four and use it to build a digital clock. First, we will learn the fundamentals of the RTC module and how it works, then we will build a digital clock in python3. With the help of a library, we'll demonstrate how to integrate an RTC DS3231 chip with Pi 4 to keep time.
Real-Time Clocks: What Are They?
RTCs are clock units, as the name ...
Hello readers, I hope your all are doing great. We know that a Raspberry Pi Pico module comes with multiple inbuilt features for example onboard memory, processing units, GPIOs or General Purpose Input Outputs (used to control and receive inputs from various electronic peripherals) etc.
In our previous tutorials, we discussed how to access GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi Pico module for both input as well as output operations.
In this tutorial, we are going to discuss another important feature of the Raspberry Pi Pico module (RP2040) which is Dual Core Processor. The Pico board features with 133MHz ARM Cortex-M0+, Dual Core Processor. This dual-core feature makes the Pico module capable of multiple thread execution or multithreading.
Now before writing the MicroPython program let’s first un ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing well. Today, I am going to share the 4th chapter of Section-III in our Raspberry Pi programming course. In the previous lecture, we studied the Interfacing of IR sensor with Raspberry Pi 4. In this guide, you'll learn how to interface a PIR sensor with Raspberry Pi to create a motion detector. A passive infrared (PIR) sensor is a straightforward yet effective tool for motion detection.
As a bonus, a piezo speaker will play an audio clip whenever motion is detected. GPIO pins are required for both of these accessories. This tutorial is a great starting point for those who have never worked with electronic components and circuits.
These sensors are used in traditional, old-generation security
systems. In con ...
Throughout our lives, we've relied on Radio and tv stations to keep us engaged. While we're on the subject of contradictions, it's also fair to say that these Stations can become tedious at times due to the RJ rambling on about nothing or annoying advertisements, and this may have left you wondering why you can't own a Radio station to broadcast your data over short distances.
Almost any electronics technician uses coils and other hardware to make an FM transmitter, although the tuning process is time-consuming and difficult. Setting up your FM station and going live in your neighborhood shouldn't take more than 30 minutes using an RPi. If you use the right antenna, you must be able to transmit to your school or community within 50 meters. Wow, th ...
