Raspberry Pi Zero W Wireless Projects

Key Features

• Explore the functionalities of the Raspberry Pi Zero W with exciting projects
• Master the wireless features (and extend the use cases) of this $10 chip
• A project-based guide that will teach you to build simple yet exciting projects using the Raspberry Pi Zero W board

Book Description

The Raspberry Pi has always been the go–to, lightweight ARM-based computer. The recent launch of the Pi Zero W has not disappointed its audience with its $10 release. "W" here stands for Wireless, denoting that the Raspberry Pi is solely focused on the recent trends for wireless tools and the relevant use cases. This is where our book―Raspberry Pi Zero W Wireless Projects―comes into its own.

Each chapter will help you design and build a few DIY projects using the Raspberry Pi Zero W board. First, you will learn how to create a wireless decentralized chat service (client-client) using the Raspberry Pi's features?. Then you will make a simple two-wheel mobile robot and control it via your Android device over your local Wi-Fi network. Further, you will use the board to design a home bot that can be connected to plenty of devices in your home. The next two projects build a simple web streaming security layer using a web camera and portable speakers that will adjust the playlist according to your mood. You will also build a home server to host files and websites using the board. Towards the end, you will create free Alexa voice recognition software and an FPV Pi Camera, which can be used to monitor a system, watch a movie, spy on something, remotely control a drone, and more.

By the end of this book, you will have developed the skills required to build exciting and complex projects with Raspberry Pi Zero W.

What you will learn

《Raspberry Pi Zero W Wireless Projects》書籍簡介：

《Raspberry Pi Zero W Wireless Projects》是一本以Raspberry Pi Zero W為基礎的專案指南。本書將引導讀者透過一系列的DIY專案，學習如何使用Raspberry Pi Zero W開發令人興奮且複雜的專案。

書中的每一章節都會教授讀者如何使用Raspberry Pi Zero W開發幾個不同的專案。首先，你將學習如何使用Raspberry Pi的功能來建立一個無線分散式聊天服務（客戶端對客戶端）。接著，你將製作一個簡單的雙輪移動機器人，並通過Android設備在本地Wi-Fi網絡上控制它。此外，你還可以使用這塊開發板設計一個可以連接到家中許多設備的家庭機器人。接下來的兩個專案將使用網絡攝像頭和便攜式揚聲器構建一個簡單的網絡流媒體安全層，該層將根據你的心情調整播放列表。你還將使用這塊開發板搭建一個用於主機文件和網站的家庭伺服器。最後，你將創建一個免費的Alexa語音識別軟體和一個FPV Pi攝像頭，這可以用於監控系統、觀看電影、偷窺、遠程控制無人機等等。

通過閱讀本書，你將學會使用Raspberry Pi Zero W開發令人興奮且複雜的專案所需的技能。
