Raspberry Pi Magic Mirror #piday #raspberrypi @Raspberry_Pi

Posted: 12 Apr 2013 03:19 AM PDT

Check out this fascinating Raspberry Pi Magic Mirror project created by Pierre Raufest at "Think RP"i — and this lovely story from Liz at RaspberryPi.Org of Pierre documenting his project:

Here's a somewhat creepy mirror with a disembodied (French) voice, which recognises the person looking into it and responds accordingly. This lovely hack from Pierre Raufast is the sort of OpenCV application that we hope to see much more of when the camera board goes up for sale (and the Pi camera would be a great solution here, with a much higher framerate).
Snow White's Mum has nothing on Pierre.
I mailed Pierre, the man in front of the mirror, as soon as I spotted this on YouTube last week, asking if he had any documentation. He didn't, but he sat down immediately and spent the weekend putting some together – in English. Thank you very much, Pierre! Head over to at Think RPi, where you'll find easy-to-follow steps which make up a tutorial, including a hardware list; software; instructions; tips on successfully using OpenCV (the face-recognition software); a picture of Han Solo, my all-time favourite space pirate; and a picture of a couple of Brits holding boxes full of tiny computers last April.

Chiedo scusa

.fluid – A reactive surface

Posted: 12 Apr 2013 03:00 AM PDT

.fluid – A reactive surface via Fashioning Technology.

Imagine surfaces start to communicate with you. Your mobile gets goose skin when your lover texts you. Your WiFi controller changes the look and feel of it's surface according to different game situations. Your sofa gives you a short massage as a warm welcome when you return home from a hard day of work. Your laptop feels dried out when battery status is getting low.
.fluid is a concept study of an interacting, changing surface. While getting Input from the hands of its spectators, it's surface changes from liquid to solid, from plain to three-dimensional symmetric patterns. It provokes you to get in touch with it, to play with it's open interface and to collaborate with other people to find out how far you can push it.

Raspberry Pi GSM gateway #piday #raspberrypi @Raspberry_Pi

Posted: 12 Apr 2013 02:00 AM PDT

Check out this discussion about a Raspberry Pi GSM gateway project over at RaspberryPi.org:

If you travel a lot, you'll be used to absurd roaming charges when you use your mobile phone. But sometimes your phone's an absolute necessity – those of us at the Foundation can't really go overseas for work or for holiday without paying those charges, because we need to be in touch with the office and with a lot of other people around the world who need to talk about things Pi. (And we like to be able to phone our mothers.)
Holger Leusch, Benjamin Reichel and Karina Hochstein have found themselves with a similar problem. Worse still, Holger travels to Cambodia a lot, and his German phone provider doesn't even have a roaming agreement with any of the Cambodian telcos, so he's not able to use his phone there at all. He found VoIP unusable in Cambodia, with patchy calls, lousy bandwidth, delays and dropouts. Like us, he needed to be in constant touch with his office.
Enter (you knew this was coming, didn't you?) the Pi.
Many of those in Holger's position would look into buying a SIP-based GSM gateway. GSM gateways are expensive things: Holger's research found that a single GSM port (and you'll need two, one at each end) was priced between €200 and €400. "For this to pay off, I would have to make a whole lot of phonecalls." So he, Benjamin and Karina built their own, using a Pi running RasPBX; a Huawei dongle for 3G; a Chan dongle which works as an Asterisk channel driver; and a USB modeswitch. The whole kit came to €75.
Holger says:

Now when a caller in Europe calls my german GSM number, first my domestic Snom phone rings, then after 5 seconds, my Cambodian mobile phone gets called. As a sideffect, my Cambodian friends from now on can call and SMS my German phone back at local rates of a few cents…
The connection quality over the 10.000 km spanning 64 kbps Asterisk SIP trunk between both gateways actually is so amazing that none of the callers even noticed that I was out of the country at the time! ….
