Lack of projects or examples related to piface

e14 Contributor over 13 years ago

Hi,

 

I recently buy a Piface to begin learinng how to use an electronic device connected to my raspberry pi device.

 

But as far as i began to search samples, or any kind of projects, python or c code using piface, everything i saw was more related to adafruit products than piface. Even my Piface needed a board made by adafruit to be completely useful. 

 

So i begin to have some doubt about the value of Piface in terme of versality making it working in any realistic projects, like i used to see with the use of some adafruit and some othe companies products.

 

I bought electronic devices from adafruit some days ago, but it is kind of frustrating to have something unuseful as this piface i have now. All i did was some sort of basic and stupid code making light goes on and off on the piface board but that's all. 

 

Am i wrong, ami i missing internet websites made of projects related with a piface ? If i'm wrong where's the best website to go to have more about this piface.

 

Thanks in any ways !

 

Sorry about my bad english writing !

 

André

    Andre,

      Let me press you a bit more and reiterate that we all would love to help, but can best do so if you give us more information on what you want to do with the Pi.  I take it your are comfortable with programming, but am I too presumpsuous to assume you are less comfortable with interfacing hardware with the Pi?

     

    • Do you want to learn about motor control?
    • Proximity sensors?
    • Temperature and Barametric preasure?
    • Or everything? :-D  I know that is what I want to learn... anyway, I am glad you found all of our links helpful, but we can really give you more aid with a bit more information from you.

    Please let us know and then we can really give your more refined suggestions.

     

    Later,

    David
