In two consecutive posts, Andrew Hazelden wrote tutorials for
interfacing Thumbstick click and SHT1x click with
Raspberry Pi, using the Pi click shield.
We're serving two pieces of Raspberry Pi goodness for you
today, courtesy of Libstock award winner Andrew Hazelden.
In the first of two posts, Andrew shows you how to interface
a Thumbstick click to a Pi. Thumbstick click is an analog
joystick, like the ones found on Playstation joypads. Andrew's
Python script reads the Thumbstick click data using the open source
webiopi library on Raspbian Linux.
The second post is with SHT1x click, the temperature and
humidity sensor we recently featured in our mikromedia WiFi
weather station. The Python script reads and displays
temperature, humidity and dew point data from the sensor.
Both Python scripts are available on Libstock (thumbstick,
sht1x) as well as on Andrew's blog, where they are
presented in a step by step manner.
And while we're at it, here's another item for all you Pi fans:
The FlowPaw board we recently wrote about is also
compatible with Raspberry Pi; just the other day two video demos
of the click board-equipped FlowPaw connected to a Pi were
posted on the FlowPaw blog. (You'll have to wait until about
September to get FlowPaw, meanwhile, check out the Pi click
shield).
Yours sincerely,
MikroElektronika
