AI Projects for the Raspberry Pi with the AI HAT+ Edge AI is transforming everyday devices by putting intelligence where it matters most: directly inside the hardware. With on-device inference, a camera can recognize a visitor instantly, a phone can translate speech without streaming audio to the cloud, and a wearable can detect anomalies in real time—fast, private, and reliable even when the network disappears. This book is your practical guide to building exactly those kinds of systems with the Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ and the Hailo-8L accelerator. You’ll start with clear foundations: core AI and machine-learning concepts, how neural networks work, and what truly distinguishes Edge AI from cloud AI—plus an honest look at ethical considerations and future impacts. Then it’s straight to hands-on physical computing. Step by step, you’ll set up Raspberry Pi OS, power and cooling, and develop in Python using the Thonny IDE. You’ll learn GPIO basics with lights and servos, mount the AI HAT+ hardware, install and verify the Hailo software stack, and connect the right camera—official modules or USB webcams, even multiple cameras. From your first pipeline to real projects, you’ll run person detection, pose estimation, segmentation, and depth estimation, then level up with YOLO object detection: smart alerts, guest counters, and custom extensions. You’ll even connect vision to motion by combining gesture recognition with servo-driven mechanisms, including a robotic arm. With troubleshooting tips, hardware essentials, and a practical Python refresher, this book turns Edge AI from buzzword into buildable reality.

Mastering the Language and the Development Platform Many people would like to learn Java but getting started is not easy since programming with Java requires at least two things: mastering the programming language and the development environment. With the help of many examples, this book shows how the language is structured. In addition, it employs the Eclipse development environment as an example of a powerful tool to teach developing Java programs. In Basics, the first part of the book, you acquire your Java and Eclipse basic knowledge. This part lays the programming foundations, gives you an overview of Java technology, and shows you what is special about object-oriented programming. In the second part called Java Language, everything revolves around the subtleties of the Java language and this is where the first small Java applications are created, aided by a fine blend of the knowledge part and practical exercises. Java Technology is both the name and the focus of the third part which also introduces you to the rules to observe when programming, what class libraries are and what advantages they have. In addition, you will learn how to test programs, what algorithms are, and how to program them. The fourth part, Java Projects, enables you to apply all the previous elements in an application with a graphical user interface. The project shows how to develop a larger application piece by piece with the Eclipse development environment. The Appendix concludes with a section on frequent errors that can occur when working with Eclipse, and a Glossary.

Besides spacious memory, the Pico and Pico W offer many GPIO pins, and popular peripheral interface modules like ADC, SPI, I²C, UART, PWM, timing modules, a hardware debug interface, and an internal temperature sensor. The Raspberry Pi Pico W additionally includes an on-board Infineon CYW43439 Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chipset. At the time of writing this book, the Bluetooth firmware was not yet available. Wi-Fi is however fully supported at 2.4 GHz using the 802.11b/g/n protocols. This book is an introduction to using the Raspberry Pi Pico W in conjunction with the MicroPython programming language. The Thonny development environment (IDE) is used in all of the 60+ working and tested projects covering the following topics: Installing the MicroPython on Raspberry Pi Pico using a Raspberry Pi or a PC Timer interrupts and external interrupts Analogue-to-digital converter (ADC) projects Using the internal temperature sensor and external sensor chips Using the internal temperature sensor and external temperature sensor chips Datalogging projects PWM, UART, I²C, and SPI projects Using Bluetooth, WiFi, and apps to communicate with smartphones Digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) projects All projects are tried & tested. They can be implemented on both the Raspberry Pi Pico and Raspberry Pi Pico W, although the Wi-Fi-based subjects will run on the Pico W only. Basic programming and electronics experience are required to follow the projects. Brief descriptions, block diagrams, detailed circuit diagrams, and full MicroPython program listings are given for all projects.

For Raspberry Pi, ESP32 and nRF52 with Python, Arduino and Zephyr Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio chips are ubiquitous from Raspberry Pi to light bulbs. BLE is an elaborate technology with a comprehensive specification, but the basics are quite accessible. A progressive and systematic approach will lead you far in mastering this wireless communication technique, which is essential for working in low power scenarios. In this book, you’ll learn how to: Discover BLE devices in the neighborhood by listening to their advertisements. Create your own BLE devices advertising data. Connect to BLE devices such as heart rate monitors and proximity reporters. Create secure connections to BLE devices with encryption and authentication. Understand BLE service and profile specifications and implement them. Reverse engineer a BLE device with a proprietary implementation and control it with your own software. Make your BLE devices use as little power as possible. This book shows you the ropes of BLE programming with Python and the Bleak library on a Raspberry Pi or PC, with C++ and NimBLE-Arduino on Espressif’s ESP32 development boards, and with C on one of the development boards supported by the Zephyr real-time operating system, such as Nordic Semiconductor's nRF52 boards. Starting with a very little amount of theory, you’ll develop code right from the beginning. After you’ve completed this book, you’ll know enough to create your own BLE applications.

Die Programmiersprache „Python“ hat in den letzten Jahren einen enormen Aufschwung erlebt. Nicht zuletzt haben verschiedene Einplatinensysteme wie der Raspberry Pi zu deren Bekanntheitsgrad beigetragen. Aber auch in anderen Gebieten, wie der Künstlichen Intelligenz oder dem Machine Learning, hat Python weite Verbreitung gefunden. Es ist daher naheliegend, Python bzw. die Variante „MicroPython“ auch für den Einsatz in SoCs (Systems on Chip) zu verwenden. Leistungsfähige Controller wie der ESP32 der Firma Espressif Systems bieten eine hervorragende Performance sowie Wi-Fi- und Bluetooth-Funktionalität zu einem günstigen Preis. Mit diesen Eigenschaften wurde die Maker-Szene im Sturm erobert. Im Vergleich zu anderen Controllern weist der ESP32 einen deutlich größeren Flash und SRAM-Speicher, sowie eine wesentlich höhere CPU-Geschwindigkeit auf. Aufgrund dieser Leistungsmerkmale eignet sich der Chip nicht nur für klassische C-Anwendungen, sondern insbesondere auch für die Programmierung mit MicroPython. Das vorliegende Buch führt in die Anwendung der modernen Ein-Chip-Systeme ein. Neben den technischen Hintergründen steht vor allem MicroPython selbst im Vordergrund. Nach der Einführung in die Sprache werden die erlernten Programmierkenntnisse umgehend in die Praxis umgesetzt. Die einzelnen Projekte sind sowohl für den Einsatz im Labor als auch für Alltagsanwendungen geeignet. Neben dem eigentlichen Lerneffekt steht also auch die Freude am Aufbau kompletter und nützlicher Geräte im Vordergrund. Durch die Verwendung von Laborsteckboards können Schaltungen aller Art mit geringem Aufwand realisiert werden, sodass das Austesten der selbstgebauten Geräte zum lehrreichen Vergnügen wird. Durch die verschiedenen Anwendungen wie Wetterstationen, Digitalvoltmeter, Ultraschall-Entfernungsmesser, RFID-Kartenleser oder Funktionsgeneratoren sind die vorgestellten Projekte auch für Praktika oder Fach- und Studienarbeiten in den Naturwissenschaften bzw. im Natur- und Technikunterricht bestens geeignet.
