This is a kit for a pan-tilt mechanism explicitly designed for Pixy2. After assembling the kit and connecting it to Pixy2, you'll be able to follow colored objects using the Pan/Tilt demo. It includes two laser-cut plastic pieces for the base, two different servos for the pan and tilt axes, and all the mounting hardware and cable ties you will need to assemble. Features The pan-tilt mechanism for Pixy2 is redesigned, making it smaller and faster than the pan-tilt for the original Pixy. All necessary hardware is included. The pan-tilt base is attached directly to an Arduino with Arduino-compatible hole-pattern and includes stand-offs and fasteners. Several pan-tilt demos are provided that can run using either Arduino, Raspberry Pi or stand-alone (no controller). Complete assembly instructions

The Pico-10DOF-IMU is an IMU sensor expansion module specialized for Raspberry Pi Pico. It incorporates sensors including gyroscope, accelerometer, magnetometer, baroceptor, and uses I²C bus for communication. Combined with the Raspberry Pi Pico, it can be used to collect environment sensing data like temperature and barometric pressure, or to easily DIY a robot that detects motion gesture and orientation. Features Standard Raspberry Pi Pico header, supports Raspberry Pi Pico series Onboard ICM20948 (3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer, and 3-axis magnetometer) for detecting motion gesture, orientation, and magnetic field Onboard LPS22HB barometric pressure sensor, for sensing the atmospheric pressure of the environment Comes with development resources and manual (Raspberry Pi Pico C/C++ and MicroPython examples) Specifications Operating voltage 5 V Accelerometer Resolution: 16-bitMeasuring range (configurable): ±2, ±4, ±8, ±16gOperating current: 68.9uA Gyroscope Resolution: 16-bitMeasuring range (configurable): ±250, ±500, ±1000, ±2000°/secOperating current: 1.23mA Magnetometer Resolution: 16-bitMeasuring range: ±4900µTOperating current: 90uA Baroceptor Measuring range: 260 ~ 1260hPaMeasuring accuracy (ordinary temperature): ±0.025hPaMeasuring speed: 1Hz - 75Hz
This small mono amplifier is surprisingly powerful - able to deliver up to 2.5 W into 4-8 Ω impedance speakers. Inside the miniature chip is a class D controller, able to run from 2.0 V - 5.5 V DC. Since the amplifier is a class D, it's very efficient making it perfect for portable and battery-powered projects. It has built-in thermal and over-current protection. There's even a volume trim pot so you can adjust the volume on the board down from the default 24 dB gain. The A+ and A- inputs of the amplifier go through 1.0 µF capacitors, so they are fully 'differential' - if you don't have differential outputs, simply tie the Audio-pin to ground. The output is 'Bridge Tied' - that means the output pins connect directly to the speaker pins, no connection to ground. The output is a high frequency 250 KHz square wave PWM that is then 'averaged out' by the speaker coil - the high frequencies are not heard. All the above means that you can't connect the output into another amplifier, it should drive the speakers directly. The amplifier comes with a fully assembled and tested breakout board, a header to plug it into a breadboard and a 3.5 mm screw-terminal blocks so you can easily attach/detach your speaker. Speaker is not included, we recommend using any 4 Ω or greater impedance speaker. Features Output Power: 2.5 W at 4Ω, 10% THD (total harmonic distortion), 1.5 W at 8 Ω, 10% THD, with 5.5 V Supply 50 dB PSRR (power supply rejection ratio) at 1 KHz Filterless design, with ferrite bead + capacitors on output. Fixed 24 dB gain, an onboard trim potentiometer for adjusting input volume. Thermal and short-circuit/over-current protection Low current draw: 4 mA quiescent and 0.5 mA in shutdown (due to pull-up resistor on SD pin)

SHIM is an old Yorkshire term meaning 'Shove Hardware In Middle' - we use it for Raspberry Pi add-ons that are designed to be sandwiched between your Pi and a HAT or mini HAT. This one has a clever friction fit header that slips handily over your GPIO pins, doesn't need soldering*, and is easily removable. The MAX98357A combined DAC / amplifier chip takes high-quality digital audio from your Pi and amplifies it so it can be used with an unpowered speaker. The push-fit connectors make it straightforward to connect up your speaker, whether it's a bookshelf or floor-standing speaker, the speaker in an old radio, or any other speaker you might have laying around. Because Audio Amp SHIM adds no extra bulk to your Pi it's perfect for building into a compact enclosure - you could use it to make a tiny MP3 player to play local files or stream from services like Spotify, give a vintage radio the ability to play digital radio streams or incorporate bleepy noises into your very own retro handheld. It's also a handy way to add audio output to your Pi Zero or Pi 400! Please note: Raspberry Pi and speakers are not included with this board.

This neat little board from Nanomesher adds a programmable power switch to your Raspberry Pi A+/B+/2/3/Zero/Zero W, which can be controlled by a single button or IR remote. The Cap part of the name indicates that it connects via the GPIO pins, attached to the top of the Raspberry Pi much like a HAT. It only uses the first twelve GPIO pins, though, leaving 28 spare on (most) Raspberry Pi models allowing you to attach additional hardware. The board uses 5 V micro USB input port as the Raspberry Pi itself. You only need to press the power button on the board or on the remote and the Cap will start providing power to the RPi. Features: Fully assembled ready to use Single button or Infrared (IR) remote On / Off operation Turn off Pi by triggering system shutdown, wait for the system to be fully halted and cuts power Suitable for mounting on a front face-plate Onboard Attiny85 Microprocessor can be removed and reprogrammed if needed Open Source for both Attiny software and Shutdown Script , which means you can adopt other remote controls. Directly plug onto Raspberry Pi, no jumper cable required Infrared Remote signals of all buttons can be read from Pi. It's LIRC compatible which means you can adopt other remote controls. Kodi Control support 1 x LED controllable via GPIO 3 x I2C ports Confirmed to work with latest Pi 3 B+ as well as older Raspberry Pis Note: Raspberry Pi is not included. The Pi Switch Cap comes with the generic remote. While it works out as a Pi Switch out of the box, you can also reprogram it using an Attiny MCU programmer. Being hackable, the firmware can be modified to suit your needs. The switch can be used as an Attiny development board with the following functions: Output to trigger relay. Output to LED Analog input to detect a voltage between 0-5 V Input for push button Input fan or infrared receiver which can be coded to distinguish all the buttons in the remote included Output to trigger an external digital input (pull down) The video below features the predecessor Nanomesher Hackable Pi Switch (not Pi Switch Cap).

Raspberry Pi 4 was welcomed by the Pi enthusiasts for the increased processing power. However, this came at a price. The RPi 4 can draw up to 3 Amps, which means it has to dissipate 15 W of power. Raspberry Pi cooling is a must. From the simplest passive heat sink, through elaborate fan blowers and even to an exotic water-cooled idea, many options are available.The Smart Fan has the form factor of the Raspberry Pi HAT. Its own tinny 32-bit processor receives commands from Raspberry Pi through the I²C interface. A step-up power supply converts the 5 V provided by Raspberry Pi to 12 V, ensuring precise speed control. Using pulse width modulation, it powers the fan just enough to maintain a constant temperature of the Raspberry Pi processor.The Smart Fan preserves all the GPIO pins, allowing any number of cards to be stacked on top of Raspberry Pi. If another add-on card has to dissipate power, a secondary Smart Fan can be added to the stack.DIN-Rail MountingTogether with multiple add-on cards, the Smart Fan can be installed on the DIN-Rail, for sturdy industrial applications.Stack Level JumperTwo Smart Fans can be installed on top of each Raspberry Pi. The assumption is that you have one more card in the stack which requires cooling. The bottom side of the Smart Fan has a jumper which needs to be installed on the second fan, in order for the Raspberry Pi to differentiate the two I²C addresses.Features
40 x 40 x 10 mm fan with 6 CFM airflow
Step-up 12 V power supply for precise fan speed control
PWM Controller modulates the fan to keep constant Pi temperature
Draws less than 100 mA of power
Stackable to itself, 2 fans can be added to Raspberry Pi
Fully stackable allows adding other cards to Raspberry Pi
Uses only I²C interface, leaves full use of all GPIO pins
