Raspberry PI's IO pins and projects

What: Raspberry PI's IO pins and projects
Who: Luke Pascoe
Summary: Luke has a project that uses the Raspberry PI's IO pins to receive / send output, running on Raspian.

He's going to cover his project, and then take us through the basics of getting the pins to work, with a breadboard, leds, switches, etc.

If we have time, we might also watch the cool Raspberry PI hacks presentation that was on at LCA, and have a general discussion about what people are doing with their Raspberry PI systems, other than raspbmc.

For those that don't know what a Raspberry PI is, it's a little cheap Linux computer, the size of a credit card.

Other details:
Parking available on the street. Feel free to turn up 10 minutes early, as we
do try and kick of the actual presentation at 7:00 pm.
If you turn up after 7:15 pm, you will need to call a mobile number on
the door to be let in.

Usually a bunch of people meet for a some food around 6:00 - 6:15 pm
before the meeting at Betsia Kebabs, 199 Symonds St.
