Torbay Raspberry Pi Jam – 10th May 2014

Posted on 2014-06-17 by simon

This is a pi jam,  however we now have more Arduino based projects than actual Raspberry Pi’s,  anyway the Jam is about learning, education etc so why not.  Especially as the Arduino and Pi can work together.   So maybe the jam should be a PI / Arduino jam instead.

SAM_0470

This was the table nearest to the door, with lot of project bits on it.  The table beyond has lots of stickers on from various companies.

SAM_0471

The new frapper bot,  expect more of the same and improvements as the months go by. If anyone wants to have a go at building these then its Arduino based.

SAM_0472

Bob returns,  future plans,  hopefully he will have lights in his mouth at a future jam,  work is carrying on, again tom is the man to see.

 SAM_0473

Well the pi jam is meant to be about the raspberry pi, one of our younger regular visitors gave another user a tutorial on programming the Raspberry pi with Python.

So what else happened, I helped Raymond with his camera and Pi,   I also gave a young lad and his Dad a demo of scrach, and attempted to do one for python and minecraft pi, but for some reason something wasn’t working properly  I just left minecraft running the young lad just played minecraft,  but they went away more confident as to what can be done with a Pi,  start simple with scratch and then work up.

Advice was also given to another user who is just starting out with a Pi.  so lots of help, hacking and other cool stuff taking place,  we are hoping to be able to give some sort of demo in the main library area next time.

The pi jams will be a place to get help / support with all this.
