off-the-shelf household devices

In Detail



The Raspberry Pi foundation has been selling their computers

since 2012 with the aim of inspiring programmers and engineers



Raspberry Pi Cookbook for Python Programmers is a practical guide

for getting the most out of this little computer. It will guide

you through the many uses of the Raspberry Pi and allow you to

showcase the best it has to offer. Discover what the Raspberry Pi

has to offer using detailed Python 3 examples that you can adapt

and extend; see where your creativity takes you!



"Raspberry Pi Cookbook for Python Programmers" begins by guiding

you through setting up the Raspberry Pi, performing tasks using

Python 3 and introduces the first steps to interface with

electronics. As you work through each chapter you will build up

your skills and knowledge and apply them as you progress

throughout the book, delving further and further into the unique

abilities and features of the Raspberry Pi



Later, you will learn how to automate tasks by accessing files

build applications using the popular Tkinter library and create

games by controlling graphics on screen. You will harness the

power of the built-in graphics processor by using Pi3D to

generate your own high quality 3D graphics and environments

Connect directly to the Raspberry Pi's hardware pins to control

electronics from switching on LEDs and responding to push buttons

right through to driving motors and servos. Learn how to monitor

sensors to gather real-life data and use it to control other

devices, and view the results over the Internet. Apply what you

have learnt by creating your own Pi-Rover or Pi-Hexipod robots

Finally, we will explore using many of the purpose-built add-ons

available for the Raspberry Pi, as well as interfacing with

common household devices in new ways



The "Raspberry Pi Cookbook for Python Programmers" will allow you

to discover the vast range of abilities this micro-computer has

By following the clear examples you can pick up many new skills

and arm yourself with the tools to create your own exciting and

interesting projects
