In the previous document we already saw how to have Volumio 2 perfectly mounted on a Raspberry Pi and we discovered how simple it is and how ideal it is to think about using it as an interface for our home audio system (For example). In this post we will see how to install SnapCast in Volumio and be able to stream to other Raspberry Pi with a speaker and make an impressive cool background music!
I wanted to bring you closer to all those who don't know it a very interesting project, it is Volumio, A magnificent player and manager of our music, A real gem! It can be used for different projects where you require music and want an amazing interface to listen to your best music; I personally use it for the background music 🙂
The Google Assistant SDK was finally released to be able to use Google Home in Spanish (o Spanish) among other new languages! So now it's possible to mount our own Google Assistant on a Raspberry Pi, in a few minutes, with a microphone and a speaker, you will have a Raspberry Pi ready to meet your requests!
If you feel like measuring wind speed using a Raspberry Pi, This is your document! You may be thinking of setting up a weather station and this is an important issue, TRUE? We will use a script and a specific anemometer and super fast we will have it set up. Apart from, As you already know me, I will export the measurements to a MySQL database and then visualize it with Grafana!
If we want to analyze some type of gas with a Raspberry Pi, we can make it very simple with MQ sensors, we will only need to know in any case which sensor to obtain depending on the gases to be analyzed and that's it, We will see in this post how to connect it and get the values. As usual, at the end we will save the data obtained in a MySQL database to visualize it from Grafana!
If we want to know and monitor atmospheric pressure in a cheap way… How could you not… This is your document! We can do it quickly with a Raspberry Pi and a sensor that barely goes beyond the 2 Euros! In this post we will see all the steps you will need to achieve it, Also as always… we will store the measurements in a MySQL database and then we will visualize the values with beautiful graphs thanks to Grafana!
In this document we will look at the installation of an IP PBX using FreePBX, the distribution that comes with Asterisk installed and allows us to configure our PBX in a simpler and more intuitive way through a GUI. This first document only consists of a basic installation and configuration that we will use in future documents to do very cool things integrating it with a Raspberry Pi.
I'm going to put this post because of all the requests I've been receiving on how to monitor a Linux server. As obviously depends on the distribution, today we have an example with a Debian and more specifically we will see it on a Raspberry Pi that carries Raspbian. We'll monitor basic metrics like CPU, RAM, Swap Memory, Disks, Network Traffic, Uptime… And in the end we will see something very interesting!
In this document we will see the installation of Magic Mirror on a Raspberry Pi, Not bad, For what? Ideal for having a small information panel that you can fully customize, Designed for any environment, whether it is your home or your company. The normal thing then will be to do some DIY, We will put a mirror on the monitor and as it is a black panel with white text or images it is very futuristic!
Continuing with documents of curious things we can do with a Raspberry Pi, Something very simple to achieve is for example to measure the electricity consumption of whatever we want, In this document we will see how to connect non-invasive current sensors to a Raspberry Pi and measure the cost of our home, since we will connect it to the electrical panel of our house! We will export the metrics to a MySQL database and then with Grafana we will create a dashboard where we can see in a very intuitive way what we spend on and how much!
