Project Plans for the Raspberry Pi Sense HAT?

spannerspencer
spannerspencer over 10 years ago

imageI have to say that the Raspberry Pi Sense HAT looks like a very alluring piece of kit. All that delicious motion sensing, for one thing, but my spider-sense is tingling when I look at that 8x8 LED matrix, too.

 

Right off the top of my head, I'm not sure what I'd like to do with one of these in terms of a specific project (as opposed to just playing with it, which is where my current inclinations are to be found!). So I thought I'd ask if any of you guys have any grand schemes in mind for putting the Sense HAT to good/useful/entertaining/frivolous/evil purpose.

 

Let's get our motion-sensing inspiration flowing!

    I could use this and python to program a game called Simon Sez! Wow! Are these RGB?

    Hi Clem!

     

    They are RGB LEDs, and better still, they are not 'Neopixels' which have limited in-built processing, so this board can render many more colors in theory, and far quicker update rates I suspect.

    but limited by the atmel 88 processor, probably running no more than 16Mhz, not that that is much of a limitation if that and the joystick is all it is doing
