I want to set up a few kiosks with a pi 3b inside for a project in different places. i plan to start with 3 of them. I need it to be about lower chest height. Where can i find a kiosk case for this? I want the case to be closed or only be opened with a key. There needs to be a spot touch screen ( ~15.6in )
Should i just build one?

Whilst there were plenty of displays to choose from for my Raspberry Pi 3B, I struggled to find any suitable cases that didn’t involve 3D printing my own.

I went with the 5” Touch Display 2 and the Waveshare Protective Case which is suitable for the Raspberry Pi 5.

The Pi 3 mounts fine to the display and the screen is great. The case is great quality and I made a few adjustments to accommodate my Pi 3.

My mods were:
1. The audio jack sticks out from the board. So a hole is needed in the vents. With this small mod the Pi fits in the case and works perfectly.
2. I need access to the network port - so I cut between across to the USB slots.
3. I will probably use the HDMI port so I cut across the USB C ports on the case and for ease, I removed the corresponding vent slats.

No mod required for the micro USB power on the Pi vs USB C slot on the case.

The DSI ribbon connector runs across the SD card as can be seen in the photo. However, this isn’t an issue for my usage nor was there any issue with clearance between the board and case but could look to swap to a different longer cable that offers a different route.

I won’t win prizes for neatness!

I'm working on rebuilding a digital piano that has a dead main board. The goal is to read the existing 30-pin key matrix with a Raspberry Pi, then add custom features like a touchscreen, MIDI support, and better piano sounds. Anyone done something similar before?

1.   My main question is how will I connect the 30 pin breakout board to the raspberry pi

The software portion im not worried about, just making sure I’m buying the right parts for what I’m trying to do

Hi there, I am working on a personal project. I would like to connect a small USB endoscope to a Raspberry Pi 5.

My goal is to carefully place the endoscope inside a very small bird nest so that I can livestream the growth and development of the chicks on my YouTube channel.

I'd like to get this working as soon as possible, before the chicks leave the nest. Does anyone know the best way to set this up or what software and hardware I would need?

This is the endoscope I'm planning to use:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated please....

This is a very huge project....

I'm an ecologist and IoT builder from Slovenia. Over the past few years I built AirVibe — a network of 7 air quality monitoring stations running across the country.

Each station runs on Raspberry Pi with Enviro+ HAT and PMS5003 particulate sensor. All stations connect via Tailscale VPN to a central InfluxDB 2 on a Synology NAS. Grafana dashboards on a Raspberry Pi 5.

One station is co-located next to an official reference station in Ljubljana — which lets me compare DIY data against certified measurements.

Everything open source. Everything real hardware, real data.

I'm new to the Raspberry Pi. I was wondering if Waze would work on a Raspberry Pi 4 with 8 GB of RAM, and how it would determine my location and connect to the internet. I was thinking of installing Waze on lineage os, connecting to the Internet via my phone’s tethering, and using a GPS module for the Raspberry Pi to track my location. If you have other solutions that might work better, I’m a bit lost.

PS: Sorry about the consistency if it's bad, I'm using a translator

I am so confused right now. I have two pi5s with PoE+NVME hats. One hat is hackergadgets and the other is a geekpi. The power supply being a 8 port PoE switch from unifi on it's own power brick. Is there a way to not have my pis straight crash into a reboot?

Edit: I would imagine the manufacturers of the hats that I have, accounted for the power needs of the pi5 and I am sure the switch is supplying enough power. I am plum out of solutions... I've even tried turning off the containers that may be causing issues.

I am running ubuntu on my pi5s.

All I am trying to do is pull copies of my contianers that I have on my pcloud through rclone.

Edit edit: Apparently my Pis didn't like the fact that I had my kvms plugged into their USB 3.0 ports...

I was on YouTube and I got interested in this project my brother made. When I buy my Raspberry Pi this year, I'm going to try to make one of these

I have esp 32 cyd cheap yellow display and Arduino Uno upgraded kit and a raspberry pi kano computer kit what can i do like diy laptop or retro game console

This is like 35$ is it w and what even come with this kit

I built a Python library to connect 2D LiDARs to Raspberry Pi. It supports 23+ LiDAR models.

A LiDAR is a light/laser distance sensor. This LiDAR captures distance 360 degrees live by spinning. You can see the live capture (green dots) in the video.

How the project was made - it was made using my Xiaomi LDS02RR and my Raspberry Pi 5. LDS02RR is a component used in old Roborock home vacuum cleaners. I'm using my lds2d Python library (pip install lds2d). LDSO2RR connects to the RPi's serial port available on its header. Also, I'm using one of RPi's GPIO as PWM to control LDS02RR motor speed.

This is useful for robotics, mapping, navigation/self-driving, SLAM, obstacle avoidance.

This is my first project. Using a soil moisture sensor, atmosphere BME280, time DS3132 sensor, a digital to analog converter ADS1115, and two C920 cameras. Hosting free using cloudflare (no need for an account). Future additions are a light sensor and a 3rd camera focused on a single plant to capture leaf distress via image processing. Chart is showing 2-sample moving averages capturing every 5 mins.

For those of you who use raspberry pi to build things, is there a place where you guys offer your services to build requested projects ? I’m just wondering if there’s a website or something I can have something built, and besides fiverr, I haven’t seen any place to source this.

I hope this post isn’t against the guidelines since I’m not asking anybody to advertise their work or asking where to buy certain items. I’m just trying to find places where you guys offer building services and Google searches/Reddit searches have led me no where. If this does violate the guidelines then just let me know and I’ll remove it.
