The Raspberry Tank slides from Barcamp Bournemouth 5. Find out more at http://bit.ly/raspberrytank

1. This is probably not the only talk
you will hear today
about the Raspberry Pi

2. But this one almost certainly has
the most firepower.

3. The Raspberry Pi

toys
•
...dumplings

6. And so...

7. If it ain't broke,
don't fix it
break it. For science!

8. Fig. 6. Shenzhen's
Finest Engineering

9. Code Cracking
(like Turing, only shite)

10. Configuring the Raspberry Pi

11. Fun with knives GPIO
(This is also the only RPi talk you will hear
today with weird references to Velvet
Acid Christ albums in it)

12. Fun with halibut I C
2

13. Really no fun at all with
WiFi and power supply issues

14. Remote Control

15. Sensor Data in the Web UI

16. The Beginnings of Autonomy
Mock my shitty code at:

17. Behold the Advanced Decision-
Making Algorithms
Giant 100MB video removed for SlideShare version -
it's basically the same as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vC9ug41YGg

18. Let's play!

19. What's Next?
•
A battery that lasts more than 10 minutes
•
Speakers with text-to-speech
•
Machine vision using OpenCV/Python
●
Bonus: RPi will also function as hand-warmer
•
Decent autonomy with ROS or MOOS
●
Sub-goal: avoid visit from nice men with
●
sunglasses
This one is OK. --->

20. ...And After That?
•
Aerial target-spotting from blimp or quadcopter
•
Many vehicles working together co-operatively
•
Find and eliminate John Connor
I need your clothes, your boots,
and oh fuck my wifi is
dropping out again
