The Raspberry Pi is a credit card-sized computer that plugs into
your TV and a keyboard. It is a capable little computer which can
be used in electronics projects, and for many of the things that
your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word processing, browsing
the internet, and playing games. It also plays high-definition
video. This book takes you step-by-step through many fun and
educational possibilities. Take advantage of several preloaded
programming languages. Use the Raspberry Pi with Arduino. Create
Internet-connected projects. Play with multimedia. With Raspberry
Pi, you can do all of this and more.
Getting Started with the Intel Galileo gets you up and running
with this new, x86-powered board that was developed in
collaboration between Arduino and Intel. You'll learn how to set it
up, connect it to your computer, and begin programming. You'll
learn how to build electronics projects around the Galileo, and
you'll explore the features and power that make it different from
all the boards that came before.Developed in collaboration with the
Intel Galileo team, and in consultation with members of the Arduino
team, this is the definitive introduction to Intel's new board for
makers.
If you think you've already heard everything there is to know
about the royal family - think again
Even Queen Victoria herself would be amused (not to mention
astonished) by the hundreds of revelations to be found within The
Royal Book of Lists.
Covering over a thousand years of royal history, this
fascinating book tells the often turbulent story of a nation and an
empire through those privileged few who came to embody it. In the
process, author Matt Richardson has succeeded in highlight all the
triumphs, tragedies, and of course the scandals that are central to
this rich heritage.
Balanced, in-depth, frequently irreverent but always compelling,
The Royal Book of Lists has something to interest everyone. Coming
as it does in time for Queen Elizabeth II's Golden Jubilee, the
book stands as a timely and accessible introduction to Britain's -
and Canada's - royal family.
Many people think of Linux as a computer operating system, running
on users' desktops and powering servers. But Linux can also be
found inside many consumer electronics devices. Whether they're the
brains of a cell phone, cable box, or exercise bike, embedded Linux
systems blur the distinction between computer and device. Many
makers love microcontroller platforms such as Arduino, but as the
complexity increases in their projects, they need more power for
applications, such as computer vision. The BeagleBone is an
embedded Linux board for makers. It's got built-in networking, many
inputs and outputs, and a fast processor to handle demanding tasks.
This book introduces you to both the original BeagleBone and the
new BeagleBone Black and gets you started with projects that take
advantage of the board's processing power and its ability to
interface with the outside world.
littleBits are electronic building blocks with over 60 modules and
trillions of combinations. With littleBits, anyone can harness the
power of electronics, microcontrollers, and the cloud--regardless
of age, gender, technical ability, or educational background. You
can combine these simple, snap-together, magnetic bricks to make
simple electronic circuits, or build robots and devices that
combine sensors, microcontrollers, and cloud connectivity. This
book, co-authored by littleBits founder Ayah Bdeir, along with
top-selling author Matt Richardson (Getting Started with Raspberry
Pi), teaches you just enough electronics to start making things
with littleBits and takes you on up through connecting littleBits
to the cloud and programming with its Arduino-compatible module.
