New Video! Last four days for The Missing Boards for the Raspberry Pi Kickstarter

Our Kickstarter is now 365% funded.

The Missing Boards for the Raspberry Pi

The Raspberry Pi is a fabulous board.  You can do almost anything with one of these inexpensive computers.   However, after using the Raspberry Pi for a number of years, we have determined what boards are really missing in the Raspberry Pi ecosystem.  It is made even better with a Pi2Grover IOT prototyping board.   The three missing boards for the Raspberry Pi are:

1) A inexpensive way of rapid prototyping with the Pi (Pi2Grover)

2) An inexpensive flexible Analog to Digital Converter (Grove 4 Channel 16 bit ADC)

3) A way of adding additional GPIOs with out adding complexity (Grove Digital Extender)

All Three Specifications Released

• – Pi to Grove Plugin Board – Pi2Grover
• – Grove 4 Channel 16 Bit Analog to Digital Converter
• – Digital Grove Extender

What are Grove Connectors?

Grove connectors are a standard way of connecting modules together without soldering.  They are keyed so you can’t plug them in backwards.   See our Grove Tutorial here.

WeatherPiArduino is a weather station controller board designed to interface to Arduino and Raspberry Pi computers.  It is an interface board developed by SwitchDoc Labs to allow the user to easily build a fully functioned Weather Station while allowing customization of functions.

WeatherPiArduino is derived from Project Curacao.  Generation 1 of this board was deployed and tested in Curacao before Generation 2 was released to production.  The full WeatherPiArduino article was published in Raspberry Pi Geek magazine in September, 2014 and a follow up article was published in April, 2015 (including the new lightning detector).  The WeatherPiArduino comes with a SwitchDoc Labs DS3231/EEPROM board.

Combine the WeatherPiArduino with a SunAir or SunAirPlus board to create a solar powered weather station.
