You can detect thermal throttling with the following bash command:
`vcgencmd get_throttled`
A return value of `0x0` means no throttling has occurred since the last reboot. Any non-zero value indicates the Pi has throttled at some point. You can run this command while the Pi is under load to see if throttling is occurring.
Raspberry Pi's share price surged after an X post linked the AI agent OpenClaw to increased demand. The article discusses the reasons behind the surge, the current state of Raspberry Pi hardware, and the security concerns surrounding OpenClaw.
OpenClaw is an open-source project that allows you to turn a Raspberry Pi into a capable AI agent. It provides a framework for connecting large language models (LLMs) to physical sensors and actuators, enabling the Pi to interact with the real world. This article details how to set up OpenClaw, including installing the necessary software, configuring the LLM, and connecting sensors like a microphone and camera. It also explores potential applications, such as home automation, robotics, and environmental monitoring.
OpenClaw is an open-source project that allows you to turn a Raspberry Pi into an AI agent capable of interacting with the world through a microphone and speaker. It uses Whisper for speech-to-text, OpenAI's GPT for reasoning, and Coqui TTS for text-to-speech. This setup enables the Pi to respond to voice commands and perform tasks, offering a customizable and privacy-focused alternative to closed AI assistants.
Documentation for the Hiwonder SpiderPi Pro robotic arm, covering getting ready, quick user experience, remote desktop installation, PC software & programming, kinematics, AI visual recognition & tracking, AI visual transporting & kicking ball, group control, and network configuration.
SpiderPi Pro is an advanced hexapod robot integrated with AI vision and powered by Raspberry Pi. It features intelligent serial bus servos with a torque of 20KG, 5DOF robot arm, glowy ultrasonic sensor, IMU sensor and dot matrix module and can be programmed using Python. SpiderPi Pro serves as an ideal platform for conducting research in motion control for hexapod robots, machine vision, OpenCV, deep learning, and various other fields.
This article details how to build a portable AI chatbot using a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, a Whisplay HAT, and a PiSugar battery for under $100. It offers a cheaper alternative to devices like the Rabbit R1 and allows for customization of the AI client used.
This guide documents the setup of OpenClaw on a Raspberry Pi 5 w/ 8GB RAM and how to give it access to a TFT display, temperature/pressure sensor, USB camera, and NeoPixels. It uses eSpeak text-to-speech and Whisper Small speech-to-text to enable speech based communication with the bot.
This project details how to build a Raspberry Pi-powered weather dashboard that displays a 5-day forecast using OpenWeatherMap and a simple web interface. It covers hardware setup, code implementation, and display configuration.
M5Stack has launched the AI-88502 LLM Accelerator M.2 Kit, based on the LLM-8850 M.2 card with a 24 TOPS Axera AX8850 SoC, offering an alternative to the Raspberry Pi AI HAT+ 2 for LLM and AI vision workloads.
