This fantastic Raspberry Pi project was spotted on the Pi Supply Twitter feed this morning.

One issue a few people is the struggle to fit the Jesse image onto 4GD SD cards, as the image size is 4.3GB. Obviously, the easy solution would be to purchase 8GB cards. However, […]

I was blown away by this impressive device when I first saw it on the Raspberry Pi blog. The machine, called the Cube Solver, uses a Raspberry Pi Compute Module. Combined with clever algorithms that trigger the machine to move the cube, the device will solve your Rubix Cube for you. Pretty neat! If you’re […]
Being able to have an object mirror what your hands are doing is incredible. This is what the team at PubNub have managed to do and it looks fantastic.
