Ideas for Raspberry Pi Zero Projects

spannerspencer
spannerspencer over 9 years ago

So, we've got the Raspberry Pi Zero games console here, Problemchild mentioned a great idea about turning an old stereo into a modern media player, and Workshopshed has already designed a Pi Zero case for 3D printing.


All of which makes me wonder what other kinds of projects you guys think the Pi Zero would be ideal for?

 

And, for that matter, if you have any Pi Zero projects planned yet?

    Okay Spanner

    What\s the deal with element14 Australia.

     

    I ordered a Pi Zero, and it was due on 21 Dec, now I get a message saying it's no longer stocked It has been discontinued.

    image

     

    Searching the site kept coming back to the same two codes.

     

    Is there some other magical code.??

     

     

    What is even more annoying is that I'll be at the back of a queue now the order has been discontinued.

    Thanks

    Okay

    It looks like the Farnell UK site has also discontinued it.

    http://uk.farnell.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Search?catalogId=15001&langId=44&storeId=10151&gs=true&st=pi%20zero

     

    Maybe it was April 1st and we got the dates wrong.

    Thanks for the offer.

    I've got the local rep chasing what is happening as it was a mystery to him.

    Hi Frederick,

     

    how did you got them ? I saw that here Farnell nor other distributors has not in their listing. I am tempted to make real the idea of the wireless screen, using a Raspi B to replace it when the zero become more diffuse but maybe this will remain a project awaiting for long time.

    Pi Hut had the best deal: £4 for the Pi Zero, as advertised. Shipping was a modest £2.5.

    Pimoroni also matched that deal and delivered next day. The shipping is low because the board is thin.

    Yes Frederick,

     

    I supposed that they have a guy in-house always sit in front of their laser cutter. But they did the LCD 7 inches support for the PI too. I got it, saw and tested it then when I discovered that it was almost senseless I have done another (also published here) and started selling it with a very limited promotion on Drobott and I continue receiving orders from people that bought at Pimoroni. Unfortunately in this moment I am late with the last batch that will be shipped tomorrow (one week delay) due a domino-effect of the plastic sheets. I will be curious to see how it is done. as a tires spot told some years ago, power is nothing without control image
