From solar power packs and ePaper displays to near-field 3D gesture control, here are ten unmissable add-ons for your Pi
In its short life so far of just over three years, the Raspberry Pi has been an absolute game changer – not just as a piece of reduced price hardware, but for nurturing a community of like-minded individuals with a common goal: learning and making awesome stuff!
We can’t recall the number of times we’ve browsed over to the Raspberry Pi blog and been blown away by the brilliance of a new project. From sorting Portuguese mail to making bullet time rigs, there are a lot of incredible projects out there – more and more are surfacing every day. People often ask what they can do with a Raspberry Pi and it is actually sometimes difficult to articulate an answer to that question, as the use cases are so broad that it is hard to do the Raspberry Pi justice.
