Raspberry RoadTest

I'm wanting to get designing and developing some great user interfaces.  Also looking forward to the HD video capability, and intend to use my Pi as a media streaming centre!

I'd like to pair it with a high-res IR camera (inexpensive now) and wand (or even gloves to simulate multi-touch) to develop a MUCH more affordable interactive whiteboard system for schools.  The onboard video should make this very easy, and a complete rig with appropriate software would be both cheap and dead-simple for a school to hook up to a projector.

This device is amazing, the use of this open source device is unlimited and unrestricted, the only limit it has is your imagination.

How or what for I tend to use such a device? A great question; for me this is what for I want to use it:

1- implement a security system in the house that will command this:

* Control house perimeter when I am not at home via cameras, sensors or other things (since this device gives you ability to install bigger programs, there'll be lot of options available, like SMSing you, Alarming police...)

* Control inside environment, in Algeria, lot of people suffers (even dies) from gas leaks due to bad usage of gas warming, R Pi! gives a detector higher level of analysing and faster response, also taking other actions like launching the aeration system, alarming you via your phone or tablet and giving you ability to take decision.

2- Hardware Firewall for my internet connection.

3- Managing my Numerical Command machines.

Good luck to everyone in this contest

hook it up to one of my HD televisions then try to run a 3D printer with it.

I'm hoping to use it to get my 13 year old son interested in programming.

I plan on giving it to my youngest son. He's focused him self on technology and computer programing over the past few years. I think something like this will encourage his growing passion for the field. It would also give me a chance to see the possiblities it could have for the homeschooling/lifelong learning community.

Many projects, but the main ones include a car dashboard with USB camera for recording, GSP navigation etc, and then the obvious one, a media center.

I'm planning to create an easy-to-use software and harware artistic environment (lightpainting, music etc..) and the R-Pi would th perfect heart for this project !

My plan was to use it as the basic for some classic computer emulation, specifically of the Tandy CoCo3, but hacking together some additional USB interfaces to add thinks like the original CoCO keyboard and other hardware.

We'd like to user the Raspberry Pi to build intelligent and interactive lamps that will be used in public spaces.  Those lamps will use RGB LEDs and depending on the color will reflect different information.  The Raspberry Pi will be used to connect to the internet and gather information that will control the lamps.  If possible we'd like to use the GPIO headers to control the lamp directly, in case that fails, we would use an arduino connected to the Raspberry Pi.
