Presentation: "Raspberry Pi with extra toppings"

Track: Makers / Time: Monday 13:20 - 14:10 / Location: C103, Musikhuset

This talk will describe what we've learned during our journey into physical computing with the RaspberryPi. At Quick2Wire, we're developing hardware and software for novice hobbyists and schools. This has required us learning some new skills and remembering some old ones. We will talk about the design of the Quick2Wire hardware, which simplifies attaching multiple external devices, our Python API, which simplifies programming with those devices.
