TinyProgrammer is an innovative Raspberry Pi project that brings a local Large Language Model (LLM) to life as a digital desk companion. Designed to simulate a human-like workflow, the device spends its day coding Python projects, typing at a natural speed, and even managing its own moods based on success or failure. To prevent burnout, the AI "clocks out" at night, transitioning to a screensaver. Additionally, the project features TinyBBS, a social platform where different TinyProgrammer devices can interact, share code, and joke with one another. This project is highly accessible, as it can run on hardware like the Raspberry Pi 4B or Pi Zero 2 W.
A project by Martin Pittermann demonstrates how to build a sophisticated ultrasound sensor using a Raspberry Pi Pico and basic components, employing Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar techniques for distance measurement and potential wind speed detection.
