You’re already familiar with Arduino and Raspberry Pi?
You want to go further with those boards, and combine them to create more complex and powerful projects?
Welcome to this Raspberry Pi + Arduino course!
I will take you from an intermediate level on the two boards, to an advanced level, not only on each board, but on the combination of both.
At the end of the course, you will be able to create your own custom projects with Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
Note: his course is not for complete beginners, for example I will not explain to you how to write basic Python or C++ programs. You definitely don’t need to be an expert, but having a good understanding of both Arduino and Raspberry Pi will really help you get started.
Why this course?
Working only with Raspberry Pi, or only with Arduino, is already nice: you can do a lot of projects.
But sometimes, this is not enough. You will need to combine the strength of both boards: the power of software with Raspberry Pi (brain), and the closeness to hardware with Arduino (muscles).
When looking for tutorials/courses about this on the Internet, I found that they are all very simplified, and work with a very simplistic setup, and only for that setup. If you add any component, any functionality, you’re going to be stuck.
So in this course, you won’t get a copy/paste example, but a complete (and efficient) step by step process to create any application with Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
I will show you how to start a successful Serial communication between the 2 boards, and how to build an application with new components and features around this bridge.
What will you do in the course?
After an installation section to get all the tools ready for the course (including installing Arduino IDE on your Raspberry Pi OS), you will progress through 4 different parts:
Communicate with Serial between Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
Build the Arduino circuit for the project, one component at a time. Control Arduino components from the Raspberry Pi
Discover new Raspberry Pi functionalities - Camera and Telegram bot. Control the camera from the Arduino, and send commands to Arduino from a Telegram chat.
Complete Intercom Project (see preview video for an overview of the result).
For each part of the course (1-3), you get several additional activities, so you can practice on what you’ve just seen, and link the new knowledge with the previous sections.
For the final project, together we will design a complete communication protocol, and we will also practice on the steps design: basically, how to plan/organize your application before writing code. I will give you some tips to help you design and organize your future projects, so you can start them and know what you need to do, in what order. This is something super important that I don’t often see in other courses or tutorials, and I’ve made sure to focus on this when creating the steps for the final project.
So, you want to build more complex applications with Raspberry Pi and Arduino? Don’t wait any longer and start this course today!
And that’s not all: all along the course I will share with you the best practices I personally use for my own projects. You will be able to create robust and scalable code - both for Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
