  crowpi2

  Last year, Elecrow sent me the CrowPi and I used it in some of my projects, including this video:

  Together with the Corel USB accelerator, I programmed a YOLOv2 object detector, etc.

  The CrowPi kit is magnificent and has everything you need to start playing with the Raspberry Pi. Furthermore, you get everything in a suitcase, that you can close and clean your "mess" in seconds. :)

  Support the CrowPi2 on Kickstarter

  Today, Elecrow is announcing a Kickstarter campaign to support the Crowpi2. This time, they integrated the Raspberry Pi in a notebook-like case (see fig. 1), and I think it i...

  Last week, I published an article about the Raspberry Pi and an e-ink display:

  • #Raspberry Pi: an E-Paper display with Widgets (see Fig. 1a).

  This time, this tutorial is about processing and displaying images on the 7.5" e-ink screen as shown in Fig. 1b.

  pep-8

  PEP-8 (sometimes PEP 8 or PEP8) is a coding standard and style guide for readability and long-term maintainability of code in Python. It was written in 2001 by Guido van Rossum, Barry Warsaw, and Nick Coghlan and provides guidelines and best practices on how to program Python code. PEPs stand for Python Enhancement Proposals, and they describe and document the way Python language evolves, providing a reference point (and in some way a standardization) for the pythonic way to write code.

  This tutorial presents some of the most important key points of PEP-8. If you want to, you can read the ful...

  This part 2 of the tutorial will allow you to get data from the smart power outlets and send it to the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) throught the Google IoT Core and using an ESP32 programmed with Zerynth (Python). This data is not usually available to the user (directly, you need to use the power outlet application), and it is sent to the company servers.

  If you want to check, if your power outlets are compatible for this tutorial, they should have the...

  data access

  There are lot of tutorials about connecting the ESP32 to a cloud service, but I planned to connect these boards using MicroPython directly to the cloud. That means, I didn't want to use a hardware or software bridge. I wanted to use the Google IoT Core, but MicroPython doesn't support JSON Web Token (JWT), which is needed for the device authentication. I tried to write the library myself, but it didn't work, because of the needed dependencies and the small mem...

  I was surfing the web for new hacking software and hardware tools and I found the Hacker Arsenal website. This website offers "ARTILLERY FOR CYBER WARRIORS" as they said; it is basically hardware and firmware for pentester. In summary, they have actually three products especially for Wi-Fi Sniffing.

  I found the Winx-Portable (update 17.10.2017: they are not offering this product anymore, they are offering the WiNX) on the website and I thought ...
