In these slides you can get a details concept on raspberry pi.It will help you to built anything by this tool.Here I've used quadcopter as it's application. I've represented clear sense of quadcopter, it's uses,future,merits & demerits. Over all, it'll enrich your engineering thought & creativity.
2. What is Raspberry Pi ?
• A credit card sized single board computer developed
In the UK by Raspberry Pi Foundation with the intention of promoting
the teaching of basic CS
• Powerful enough to process many of the same programs as PC,
from word processor to games
• Its small size also makes Raspberry Pi ideal for programming
connected home devices
3. Versions of the Raspberry Pi Board:
1. Raspberry Pi A
2. Raspberry Pi B , revision 1
3. Raspberry Pi B , revision 2
4. Raspberry Pi Zero
4. Raspberry Pi Hardware Specs
• Broadcom BCM2836 SoC
900MHz, 1Gb RAM
• 32-bit processor
Bigger address space, number representation
• Dual Core Video Core IV
Multimedia Co-processor
GPU
• 40 GPIO Pins
Only 26 on Raspberry Pi A&B
• 4 USB Ports
Only 2 on the Raspberry Pi B
5. Raspberry Pi Hardware Specs
• Memory
512 SRAM, 4Gb Flash, micro SD
• Micro SD Card Slot
Full sized SD card slot on previous Raspberry Pi s
• Raspberry Pi has lower I/O voltage levels
3.3v
8. Features of Raspberry Pi
Support an Operating System
Network connectivity &computational intelligence
Small & cheap relative to a PC
Can interface directly with sensors/actuators via pins
Interface can be exactly the same as a PC running Linux
Can be used as IOT device
32. Advantages
• Four small rotors have smaller diameter then one large helicopter
rotor
• Takes less damage to rotors
• Traverse through different terrains because of their small size
&there is less risk of damage too
• Significantly cheaper & the cost in fuel & maintenance is way
lower than regular airplanes
34. Disadvantages
• Can not communicate with civilians for more detailed
intelligence
• An invasion force, according to civilians
• Can be commandeered or taken control by the enemy
36. Future
• Predictions of a $10B industry
Military: Surveillance, force protection, warfare
Civilian Commercial: Transport, environment
Civilian private: DIY Drone
FAA predicts 15,000
Civilian drones by 2020
37. Future
• Over 15,000 drones sold in the US every month
• $15B industry projected to grow to $25B by 2020
• Expectations for leading industry applications
Agriculture
Infrastructure inspection
Border patrols
Photography
Construction
Film production
