Led light prototype with RasperryPi and Sense Hat
The lists the parts needed to build set it up.
Part | Quantity | Notes |
---|---|---|
RaspberryPi | 1 | I used RaspberryPi Zero W but any version compatible with SenseHat will work |
Sense Hat | 1 | Official Sense Hat page |
Micro SD Card | 1 | Minimum 8GB. I wasted time with cheap cards, learned my lessons, and now recommend getting a proper card |
Micro USB Cable | 1 | If you power it from a USB port |
Micro USB Power Supply | 1 | If you power it independently you can use an official 2.5A Power Supply |
Part | Quantity | Notes |
---|---|---|
Case | 1 | With 40 GPIO cut-out, the official case is great, but I enjoy looking at the board and using an acrylic case |
Smartphone clamp with 1/4" socket | 1 | I'm using Manfrotto PIXI but there are alternatives - just make sure they can clamp at around a case; For me it was ~6.5cm for the acrylic or ~7.5cm for the official one. |
Desktop tripod with 1/4" screw | 1 | I'm using a tripod that comes with Logi C920 |
