The document provides an overview of the Raspberry Pi, a credit card-sized single-board computer developed in the UK to promote teaching computer science in schools. It describes the Raspberry Pi's history as a project of the Raspberry Pi Foundation charity. Key features outlined include its low cost, small size, and ability to run Linux-based operating systems. The document discusses preparing the SD card, various programming languages supported like Python, common application examples like wall displays and tablets, and advantages like low power usage and portability while noting limitations like lack of permanent storage. The conclusion expresses optimism for the Raspberry Pi's potential to help users learn electronics and computers.

3. introduction
• Raspberry Pi is a credit card
sized computer.
• It can be plugged into your TV
and a Keyboard.
• Can be used for many of the
things as that an average
desktop does.

4. HISTORY
 The Raspberry Pi is the work of the
Raspberry Pi Foundation, a charitable
organisation.
UK registered charity (No. 1129409), May
2009
 It's supported by the University of
Cambridge Computer Laboratory and tech
firm Broad comm

5. WHATISARASPBERRYPI??
The Raspberry Pi is a fully featured
micro-computer squashed onto a circuit
board measuring approximately 9cm x
5.5cm.

6. Whyraspberrypi??
Very Low Cost ($25 – Rs 1550/- for Model A & $35 – Rs 2200/- for
Model B/B+).
Great tool for Learning Programming, Computers & Concepts of
Embedded Linux, etc.
Support for all Age Groups (School Children, College Undergraduates,
Professional Developers, Programmers).
Supports & runs Free and Open Source Linux OS .
Consumes less than 5W of Power.
Supports Full HD Video Output (1080p), Multiple USB Ports , etc
Fun to learn & explore. You are limited by your imagination.

7. features

10. Operatingsystem
 Linux on a bootable SD
card
 Fedora
 Raspbian
 Debian
 ArchLinux ARM

13. Preparingasdcard
Format a SD card that is 4GB .
Download and extract the files from the NOOBS zip file.
Copy the extracted files onto the SD card that you just formatted so that
this file is at the root directory of the SD card.
When this process has finished, safely remove the SD card and insert it
into your Raspberry Pi and Power it up.
Raspberry Pi will boot, and a window will appear with a list of different
operating systems that you can install. We recommend that you use
Raspbian – tick the box next to Raspbian and click on Install.
Wait for it to finish. (15 – 20 mins)

14. programming
 By default, supporting Python as the
educational language.
 Any language which will compile for
ARMv6 can be used with the
Raspberry Pi.

17. Raspberrypi-projects

3) Games on Raspberry Pi

20. advantages
 Small,Inexpensive
 Less power consumption
 As SD card is used here ,easily
portable
 Able to display images or play
videos at 1080p high definition
solution
 Python is the programming
language required which is easy.

21. disadvantages
 Does not have hard disk,so no
permanent storage of files
 RAM is not removable or
swappable
 Not compatible with other
operating systems like windows
 Complexity in multi-tasking
 Not suitable for big business
companies that have big servers.

22. Future
Developments
 Tablet version
 Interesting low-cost screen
technologies emerging
 Brambles! (Networks of
Raspberries)

23. conclusion
Raspberry Pi is an innovative product.The
sheer number of users and fan base support
the fact that the device can see a great future
ahead.The device can surely help anyone who
really wants to lean electronics and computers
