chipKIT Pi from Microchip and element14 As Raspberry Pi really started to take off and gain momentum, a few of us from Microchip and Premier Farnell started thinking of how we could work together using the manufacturing arm of Premier Farnell, E...
Use a Raspberry Pi and some custom interface cards with XBee's to remotely control a multitrain layout of model trains, track switches, track side utilities, etc.
When I was first starting out, I worked with a senior engineer who had a poster in his office that said “It’s hard to remember that the objective was to drain the swamp .. when you’re up to your @** in alligators”. I bring this up because this ...
