The Raspberry Pi is a low cost, credit-card sized computer that plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse. It is a capable little device that enables people of all ages to explore computing, and to learn how to program in languages like Scratch and Python. It’s capable of doing everything you’d expect a desktop computer to do, from browsing the internet and playing high-definition video, to making spreadsheets, word-processing, and playing games.

What’s more, the Raspberry Pi has the ability to interact with the outside world, and has been used in a wide array of digital maker projects, from music machines and parent detectors to weather stations and tweeting birdhouses with infra-red cameras. We want to see the Raspberry Pi being used by kids all over the world to learn to program and understand how computers work.

Raspberry Pi Foundation
The Raspberry Pi Foundation is a registered educational charity (registration number 1129409) based in the UK. Our Foundation’s goal is to advance the education of adults and children, particularly in the field of computers, computer science and related subjects. See our stories page for more information about the Foundation’s charitable work.

Building an IoT Monitoring System From a Raspberry Pi (part 1)

In this article, I go over how I built a humidity alert system that is being used to monitor temperature and humidity for hay farming. The idea is that when you bail hay, it needs to be during the night, and when the humidity is over 60%. Hay farmers tend to lose sleep waiting to see when the humidity is just right to go out and bail their hay. I was asked if I could build a device that would monitor conditions out in the field where the hay is on the ground waiting to be bailed and then send an alert to the farmer from these remote locations once optimum humidity is reached.
