gpsTime

Mon, 05 Jul 2021 20:05:33 +0000

I think there is nothing more pleasing than having extremely precise measurements at your fingertips. Like time. While in the past it was quite problematic to measure time accurately (not talking about sundials, but… why not? ;)) - mankind has created one precise time source as the byproduct (read: “waste”) for usage in accurate navigation: GNSS and their different kinds like GPS, Glonass, Galileo, BaiDou and others.

Taping into this time source and providing it to your local computer network via NTP has been done by countless people and is an extreme rewarding task. Is it necessary? Maybe not. Is it really cool? Yes. And now it is even easier as you don’t need to configure it yourself, but can use the balenaHub and the preconfigured gpsTime project.

Won't be able to attend Pi And More 11 1/2 :(

Dear all,

it is quite sad, but after I have been with the “Pi And More” on every single meeting since it started back in 2012 - and have held workshops and talks on all except the very first one, this time, for the Pi And More 11 1/2 I won’t be able to deliver neither my “Raspberry Pi Introduction” talk (which has been quite a mantra since way back) - nor the “How to command a space payload” - due to bad health :(. I, however, won’t drop said talk, but try to deliver it on Pi And More 12.

Raspberry Pi Con "Pi and More"

Wed, 14 Nov 2012 18:17:32 +0000

At the 23. of August 2012, the University of Trier held the first Raspberry Pi Convention in Germany. It was a little, but awesome gig with about 30 IT Students and other interested people.

The main idea was to rise the awareness for the new microcomputer, called “Raspberry Pi” which combines an 700 MHz ARM Processor, 512 MB of RAM, Full HDMI Output, Audio, Ethernet and USB into an very small and affordable package (about 35 US Dollar). With this microcomputer, and its General Purpose Input and Outputs (GPIO), pupils can actually have a “hands-on” (in) physical computing. That means: Connecting software (i.e. Python, Perl, C programs) with the real world. For example: Controlling LEDs, driving motors or even react on buttons, attached to the GPIO port. Combining these possibilities into a small and affordable package started a big hype about this little computer, long before it was even available to the public.
