• Pimoroni's Pi-Powered 'Pico Vision' Nears Completion

  Pimoroni's Pico Vision is a retro gaming development and digital video experimentation board for game developers and audio / visual artists

• This Raspberry Pi Pico Clock Project Features a Custom PCB

  The project relies on a DS3231 module to keep track of the time. However, there is no onboard battery, meaning it must be plugged into power to maintain accurate time. Envious Design explains that you could easily remedy this by permanently adding a battery module to the unit.

• Globetrotting Polaroid camera magically fills Grandma’s photo frame

  Both the camera and the frame use Raspberry Pi, so Max gets double points from us. A Raspberry Pi Camera Module hides behind the lens of the old Polaroid, capturing Max’s travels. A Raspberry Pi board sits inside the body of the camera, processing the images and sending them to the frame via Wi-Fi.

• Logic Analyzers: Capabilities And Limitations

  Last time, we’ve used a logic analyzer to investigate the ID_SD and ID_SC pins on a Raspberry Pi, which turned out to be regular I2C, and then we hacked hotplug into the Raspberry Pi camera code with an external MCU. Such an exercise makes logic analyzers look easy, and that’s because they are! If you have a logic analyzer, you’ll find that a whole bunch of hacks become available to you.
