• Technical, help and resource documents for the Raspberry Pi

  This listing of useful resources from the Raspberry Pi foundation includes a quick-start guide, tutorials, datasheets, and schematics.

• Python library for the Pololu DRV8835 Dual Motor Driver Kit for Raspberry Pi

  This Python library for the Raspberry Pi makes it easy to interface with Pololu’s DRV8835 dual motor driver kit and use it to drive a pair of brushed DC motors. An example program is included with the library.

• PiBot-B: mobile robot with a Raspberry Pi

  This robot uses a Raspberry Pi and Zumo Chassis Kit and can be remotely controlled over WiFi from an iPhone. The page is written in German, but it has a link at the top to translate it into English using Google Translate. We also wrote about the PiBot-B in our blog.

• RTIMULib IMU library for embedded Linux systems

  RTIMULib is a library for embedded Linux systems designed to make it easy to interface with an IMU and get Kalman-filtered orientation estimates. It works with our MinIMU-9 v3, AltIMU-10 v3, and AltIMU-10 v4 (as well as the older MinIMU-9 v2 and AltIMU-10), and it includes two demo programs that aid in testing and calibrating the sensors. Instructions are provided for setting up RTIMULib on a Raspberry Pi.

• Orientation sensing with the Raspberry Pi and MinIMU-9 v2

  This project explains how to connect our MinIMU-9 v2 (or AltIMU-10) sensor board to a Raspberry Pi and use it to sense orientation. It includes a video, wiring instructions, and code.

  Demo code to do web-based real time control of the Pololu Micro Maestro 6 channel servo controller using the Raspberry Pi and the Tornado web server. By MartinSant, November 2012.

• Raspberry Pi Telepresence Rover

  This tank rover streams video to and can be controlled from a web browser. All rover functions are controlled directly by the Raspberry Pi with no additional microcontrollers. It uses our Pololu 30T Track Set, idler wheels, 150:1 Micro Metal Gearmotor MP, DRV8835 Dual Motor Driver Carrier, and Pololu Step-Down Voltage Regulator D15V35F5S3. By Michael Shimniok, April 2013.
