Drumbooth controller with Raspberry Pi, JavaFX, and Arduino
Based on multiple examples from my book “Getting started with Java on Raspberry Pi”, I created a touchscreen controller for the drum booth of my son.
Based on multiple examples from my book “Getting started with Java on Raspberry Pi”, I created a touchscreen controller for the drum booth of my son.
One of the example applications in my book “Getting started with Java on the Raspberry Pi” combines a JavaFX application with Mosquitto on the Raspberry Pi to control a LED strip with an Arduino.
And another summer project got finished… ;-) My sons drum corps teacher triggered me to build an Arduino Midi controller so he could practice his rhythm skills.
At CoderDojo we have the luck to receive old laptops from companies. We use them for kids who don’t have a laptop or can’t bring one to the Dojo’s.
Eén van de grootste uitdagingen voor de CoderDojos is het geboeid houden van de kinderen. Scratch is heel laagdrempeling en toch kan je er ook heel complexe zaken mee doen, maar toch komt al snel de vraag om “eens iets anders te doen”.
