Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the 6th lecture in the Raspberry Pi 4 Programming series. We're glad you could join us for another lesson in our comprehensive Raspberry Pi programming guide. In today's guide, I'll show you how to interface a 16x2 LCD screen with Raspberry Pi 4.
So, let's get started:Interface LCD 16x2 with Raspberry Pi 4Today, we are going to interface a 16x2 LCD screen with Raspberry Pi 4. At first, we will print the "Hello World" text on the LCD, and in the last section, we will implement the scrolling and blinking of text on the LCD.Here's the video tutorial on LCD interfacing with Raspberry Pi 4:Components RequiredWe will need the following components for today's project:Raspberry Pi 4.M ...
Hello readers, I hope you all are doing great. In our previous tutorial, we discussed the implementation of pulse width modulation (PWM) in Raspberry Pi Pico using the MicroPyton programming example. We also implemented the LED brightness control program to demonstrate an application of the pulse width modulation technique.
In this tutorial, we are going to implement another application of pulse width modulation technique which is ‘Direction and position control of a servo motor’ with Raspberry Pi Pico module and MicroPython programming language.
Later in this tutorial, we will also discuss how to control the position of a servo motor with push buttons (to be used as control inputs) and also to use LEDs for indication purposes.
What is Servo Motor?
Before interfacing the servo motor with ...
Hello readers, I hope you all are doing great. In this tutorial, we will learn how to interface the PIR sensor to detect motion with the Raspberry Pi Pico module and MicroPython programming language. Later in this tutorial, we will also discuss the interrupts and how to generate an external interrupt with a PIR sensor.
Before interfacing and programming, the PIR and Pico boards let’s first have a look at the quick introduction to the PIR sensor and its working.

PIR motion sensor and its working
PIR stands for Passive Infrared sensors and the PIR module we are using is HC-SR501. As the name suggests the PIR or passive infrared sensor, produces TTL (transistor transistor logic) output (that is either HIGHT o ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are going great. Today, I am going to share the 10th tutorial of Section-III in our Raspberry Pi Programming Course. In our previous tutorial, we interfaced a Gas Sensor MQ-2 with Raspberry Pi 4. Today, we will be interfacing a Fingerprint Sensor with Raspberry Pi today.
After appearing only in science fiction films until recently, fingerprint sensors are often employed to confirm an individual's identity in various contexts. Today, fingerprint-based systems are used for everything from checking in at the office to verifying an employee's identity at the bank, withdrawing cash from an ATM, and proving one's identity at a government agency. For identifying purposes, fingerprint-detecting technology has been used for so ...
Welcome to the next tutorial of our Raspberry Pi programming course. Our previous tutorial taught us to make a button-controlled "music box" that plays different sounds depending on which buttons are pressed. In this lesson, we will configure our raspberry pi for voice control.
What will you learn?
Like the Amazon Echo, voice-activated gadgets are becoming increasingly popular, but you can also construct your own with a Raspberry, a cheap USB mic, and some appropriate software. Simply speaking to your Raspberry Pi will allow you to search YouTube, view websites, activate applications, and even answer inquiries.
What will you need?
Because the Raspberry Pi lacks a soundcard or audio port, this project requires a USB microphone or a camera with a ...
to our new beginner’s course on Raspberry Pi. This course is appropriate for anyone using either a traditional Raspberry Pi board or the new Raspberry Pi 400 board that includes an integrated keyboard and display. Learning how to code, building robots, and doing plenty of other strange and exciting things are all possible with this low-cost computer setup. The Raspberry Pi can do everything a computer can do, from surfing the web to viewing movies and music, and playing video games.
Raspberry Pi is much more than a modern computer. It`s created to educate young people on how to program in languages such as Scratch and Python, and it comes with all of the major programming languages pre-installed. The world is in desperate need of programmers now ...
During the era of Covid-19, social distancing has proven to be an efficient method of reducing the spread of contagious viruses. It is recommended that people avoid close contact as much as possible because of the potential for disease transmission. Many public spaces, including workplaces, banks, bus terminals, train stations, etc., struggle with the issue of keeping a safe distance.
The previous guide covered the steps necessary to connect the PCF8591 ADC/DAC Analog Digital Converter Module to a Raspberry Pi 4. On our Terminal, we saw the results displayed as integers. We dug deeper into the topic, figuring out exactly how the ADC produces its output signals. In this article, however, we will use OpenCV and a Raspberry Pi to create a system that can detect when people are trying to avoi ...
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:
Components Required
To learn how an IR sensor detects the existence o ...
Welcome to the next tutorial of our Raspberry Pi programming course. Our previous tutorial taught us to set up a free media server on Raspberry Pi. We also learned how to connect with different devices and stream media files. This tutorial will teach us how to use a Raspberry pi as a DNS server.
Prerequisites
You must have access to the following resources to follow this tutorial:
Raspbian Pi OS on Raspberry Pi (2-4).
Internet access is required.
There must be a unique identifier for every machine on the Internet to speak with each other Using IP addresses; clients can identify the servers they need to contact. However, no one is expected to remember the digits of an address; thus, DNS names are used instead. This DNS can be built on a Raspberry. It's a number-to-domai ...
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 ...
