The Raspberry Pi is an inexpensive, single-board computer system about the size of a deck of cards. This computer can be configured to use a standard-size keyboard, monitor, and mouse.
The book begins by teaching you how to build and configure a Raspberry Pi development environment.
Next, you will get acquainted with concepts such as connecting USB peripherals for video and image capture, and high-quality audio. Using GPIO peripherals, you will drive LEDs and sense switches and connect SMBUS-controlled peripherals. Over the course of eight chapters, you will gain experience with desktop tools, the shell command line, and Python scripts.
This book includes hands-on projects that involve building a talking clock, creating a camera-based movement detection system, developing an Internet radio, building an RC-servo control program, configuring remote access to a Raspberry Pi, and building a line-following robot.

This book is dedicated to my wife, April. Without her dedication and support this book would not exist.
April provided encouragement to start the project, and acted as the Instructional designer and editor once underway.
Her patience and input as we built the learning objectives helped us meet most of the deadlines, and significantly enhanced the materials.
I can only hope she will perform this function again for the next book.
The Raspberry Pi is a low-cost, highly capable computer system about the size of a deck of cards that can use a standard-sized keyboard, monitor, and mouse. This book will show you how to use this amazing little machine to design and configure your own development environment, build really cool hobby projects, and gain expertise in project design and development. You will also learn how to take advantage of existing open source tools, applications, and scripts.
It doesn't matter whether you are new to the hobby project world or you are an experienced DIY maker; from the very first chapter, we guide you through complex software and hardware concepts. This book uses a project-based learning design, from setting up a graphical desktop interface to driving a line-following robot; you learn what you need to know when you need it.
As you complete the projects, you will build on what you learn in the chapters and continue to expand your expertise, using complex computing solutions for your Raspberry Pi.
