August 23, 2016. 33 Node Beowulf Cluster built with Raspberry Pi. May 21, 2013. Not only did [Josh Kiepert] build a 33 Node Beowulf Cluster. But he made sure it looks impressive even if you don’t know what it is. That’s thanks to the power distribution PCBs he designed and etched. In addition to injecting power through each of the RPi GPIO headers they host an RGB LED which is illuminated in blue in the images above. Quite some time ago we saw a 64-node RPi cluster. Posted in Network Hacks. There are a l...

DIY pick and place machine. Posted by Daniel Amesberger. On July 18, 2013. Current status of my DIY pick and place machine. When I started developing the RasPiComm Plus I soon realized that I need the ability to manufacture smaller batches of our boards since we will have at least 10 different extension boards. I also wanted to stick to my 100% made in the EU principle. No more manual pick and place. So those were my options:. Buy a new pick and place machine. Buy a used pick and place machine. It is not...

August 23, 2016. A Full IP Webcam With a Raspberry Pi. November 3, 2014. A Dropcam will run you about $150. Price out a Raspberry Pi, camera sensor, and a CCTV camera housing found on eBay, and it starts to look like there may be a cheaper replacement for a Dropcam sitting around on workbenches, if only someone can figure out the software. [Antoine] did just that. Giving any Raspberry Pi the ability to stream H.264 video over a network. Antoine]’s software is based on the raspivid tool. Still troubled wi...

TI’s CC3000 WiFi chip gets a library | Hackaday
http://hackaday.com/2013/06/24/tis-cc3000-wifi-chip-gets-a-library
August 21, 2016. TI’s CC3000 WiFi chip gets a library. June 24, 2013. About six months ago, Texas Instruments released a simple, cheap, single-chip WiFi module. Chris] just solved that problem for us. There are a few caveats in using the CC3000 with an Arduino; it’s a 3.3 Volt part, so you’ll need a level shifter or some resistors. Also, the chip draws about 250 mA when it’s being used, so you’ll need a beefy battery if you want your project to last an entire day of use. June 24, 2013 at 12:13 pm. Is rea...
