The Element14 community was kind enough to award me a prize in the Open Arduino contest and with the award I purchased one of the official displays for a Raspberry Pi. I have wanted a portable marine traffic monitor for some time and this is what I came up with:
It turned out quite nice, went together easily, and can be put together at a reasonable cost. The project is a good demonstration of how powerful the Raspberry Pi is.
Components:
A wireless mouse for user input and a small "rubber duck" antenna for reception complete the project. I really like the Smarti Pi enclosure - makes the screen much more useable. What have other people done with their awards?
