Hi everyone this is Madhu Govindarajan from MathWorks with my second blog in the series to help you get started with MATLAB and Raspberry Pi Camera board for the road test. If you want to use Raspberry Pi to create your own selfie stick or take ...
Hi everyone, this is Madhu Govindarajan from MathWorks. To help the contestants get started with the Arduino kit and MathWorks' tools for the Teacher's Pet Students' Robotics Challenge road test, I will write a series of blogs here in STE...
Hi Everyone,While waiting for the kit to arrive, I have decided to spend my time learning to program an Arduino board with Simulink, figuring out how to do PID Control.This is a bit more complicated that using the Arduino IDE, so I am still trying to...
Hi, this is the first post and a brief introduction of reminder robot ( Teachers Pet Student Robotics Challenge finalist ). First of all I wanted to thank element 14 and sponsors for this exciting challenge and congratulations to all the finali...
Good day comrade! Today we'll talk about the audio hardware of my robot. Generally speaking, my sound system will consist of two parts:melody generator;speech generator. The latter will be discussed in a future article, but today (and n...
While the Raspberry Pi Educators Roadtest is complete, I wanted to follow up with my belated post using the Raspberry Pi B+ Camera Kit to create time lapse photos. The school where I teach physics is undergoing a major construction project to rebuild...
DisclaimerI'm involved in a Futureintech program that introduces electronics to 11/12yr old pupils at various schools within New Zealand.The Project Xmas Tree involves students assembling a picaxe based Tree shaped board, that they can then progr...
TL;DR: Thank you to Adafruit, MathWorks, doctorcdf, the element14 community, and ASU! Problem Statement. Hello! I am very humbled to have been selected as a challenger in the Teacher’s Pet Students’ Robotics Challenge. Tha...
Hi everyone this is Madhu Govindarajan from MathWorks. Congrats to all those who have been selected as the finalists for Teacher's Pet Students' Robotics Challenge. This is the first blog in a series which will provide you with resources to g...
Problem Statement Goal of this project is to detect raised hands of the students in the classroom in real-time. It would not only assist Teachers to find what doubts do the students have but also help fellow students to get more clarity of the m...
No mater how much have you tried to be a beloved person in the class it doesn't work, and It is always you who was picked last during the P.E. session, your friends start going out without even informing you, nevertheless you had to cover up for ...
Good day comrades! Today we begin a new project called "Schedule & Homework Robot". The main idea: an Arduino robot that moves out from the box at the end of lecture, tells the homework, announces the end of the lecture, and l...
Super excited and super confused about what to do next, but whatever happens, it will sure be fun. Can't wait to get the Arduino Kit and get started. This will be awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Everyone. We are very excited to see so many talented participants in our Teacher's Pet Students' Robotics Challenge. We can't wait to see these projects for the classroom come to life. element14's STEM Academy exists to ...
Hi I just wanted to put a test post out there and to just get my name on the page!! I would like to thank Element14, Mathworks and Adafruit for running it and I would also like to thank Chris Defoe for being the main instigator. I am very pleas...
Hi, I will introduce myself first, my name is Benjamin Bonnal and I am studying Micro-engineering at the EPFL in Lausanne Switzerland. I am so glad to be able to develop great things with the material support of element14, so Thank you so much C...
Thank you to all our competitors for all their efforts over the past months in this exciting RoadTest - the first RoadTest element14, MCM and CPC have done just for educators. There are two Grand Prize winners who will receive a 3D printer worth...
The Raspberry Pi Educators RoadTest has now concluded and all of the blog posts are in from the participants! We will now be decided which of our contestants in each area (North America & UK / Ireland) will be winning a 3D printer for their class...
I have enjoyed the chance to try out the Raspberry Pi Camera kit and look into the applications for educational use. The kit is a well put together combination of components to get started with photography using the Raspberry Pi.Unfortunately as I ha...
Due to the time constraints of this RoadTest I haven't had time to investigate the possibilities of all the projects which I outlined in my previous blog post. Therefore I have decided to do the only one that is achievable in the current ti...
UPDATE 23:11 13 February 2015: Alas, for many reasons some of which I have already stated in these blogs (but including the fact two weeks ago I suffered a painful leg injury in a road accident), I have run out of time! Provided they are n...
The Raspberry Pi Educators RoadTest is well under way and was just extended by two weeks until February 13th! We have seen quite a few great blog posts from our participants. Please follow all of the action on our blog and on the element14 STEM Acade...
If you live on the east coast of the US then you know that this week was the week of "Snowmageddon." For those not in the know, an intense storm which was supposed to blow through causing massive disturbances on a scale not seen for decades...
