The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that costs only $35, plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. This computer is accessible to people of all ages to learn how to build a computer and start exploring computer programming using languages like Scratch and Python. You can use this mini computer just like you would your desktop computer to do everything from browsing the internet and playing high-definition video, to making spreadsheets, word-processing, and playing games.
What’s more, the Raspberry Pi is part of the maker movement! You can connect with people from all over the world to invent a wide array of digital maker projects, from music machines and parent detectors to weather stations and tweeting birdhouses with infra-red cameras. |
