I have been mucking around with the Xtrinsic-sense board which is an add-on to my Raspberry Pi. In my previous post, I had executed the Python scripts that came with the sensor library that I cloned out of this github. There is a good article that explains about how to enable Xtrinsic-sense board in Raspbian. However… Continue reading Sending sensor board data from Raspberry Pi to Intelligent Systems Service (ISS)

RaspberryWiFai getting mobile
Raspberryfai has transformed into RaspberryWiFai, and it is can’t wait to go out there under the spring sun! I’d procrastinated for awhile in opening up the clear case and plugging in the Xtrinsic-Sense board that I purchased together. Initially I wanted to buy a downgrade GPIO cable from 40 pins to 26 pins so that the cable could… Continue reading RaspberryWiFai getting mobile

What the ISS LPP entitles me are the following: Access to the ISS service which… Continue reading Intelligent Systems (at your) Service

Since a young age, I had been taught by my mother not to waste, especially precious resources like water, power, food and yes money too (she still thinks that I’m a spendthrift) . I reckon that my mother understood well about the importance of minimizing waste before carbon footprint appeared in our vocabulary. Up to… Continue reading To waste or not to waste
raspberryfai at your service
My apologies for the corny title of this post, but since Fai rhymes with Pi, I couldn’t resist not naming my li’ juice fruit as RaspberryFai. See my SSH session below: I lost a couple days of precious time in tinkering with my Raspberry Pi (RPi) because I got some internet connection issues but it’s been… Continue reading raspberryfai at your service
Unboxing my Raspberry Pi B+
Like a delighted child upon given some candies, that’s was me yesterday, just better. The day started when I went to the post office for an early collection of a parcel which contains a hand-picked tasting selection composed of three Grands Crus Nespresso, two of which I had not tasted before. I’m more of a morning person these… Continue reading Unboxing my Raspberry Pi B+
