Understanding the Raspberry Pi

Welcome to the wonderful world of Internet of Things (IoT) projects and the Raspberry Pi in this, the second edition of Internet of Things Programming Projects.

In this book, we will take a journey into IoT projects using the Raspberry Pi. In the first part of this book, we’ll explore IoT projects on the Raspberry Pi, initially transforming it into a weather station with the Sense HAT to capture real-time data. Later, we’ll use motors and general-purpose input/output (GPIO) pins to repurpose the Pi as an analog metering device.

We will then create an IoT home security system, using the Raspberry Pi as the central hub for an alarm system. We’ll also develop a LoRa-enabled IoT monitoring station for remote sensing. The book culminates with our most ambitious project: building an IoT robot car powered by the Raspberry Pi.

We will start this chapter by exploring the various Raspberry Pi models and their significance, observing...
