Besides eating him, what else can you do with pie?!

Last time, I pushed a tweet about the award-winning microcomputer produced by our company, Raspberry Pi , which was highly praised by everyone. Many friends sent messages to the backstage asking me to provide more information about Raspberry Pi.

In the spirit of serious and responsible professionalism (actually I don’t really want to write tweets), today I went to the DesignSpark community established by our OSC Electronics for all engineers and found a tutorial article about the latest accessories for Raspberry Pi.

Please give me a favor and read to the end!

What do a bright green, low-cost educational computer, the mobile games Fly Bird and Snake, and Amazon's Alexa service all have in common?

Friends who are familiar with Raspberry Pi will soon discover that they all use the latest accessory released by pi-top , called pi-top Pulse .

You can put this small (67mm x 60.5mm) white rectangular object on an existing Raspberry Pi 3 as a HAT, or you can plug it directly into a pi-top laptop or pi-top CEED:

7x7 Programmable Three Primary Color LED Matrix

Easy to program and fully configurable : you can use Python game examples such as flying birds or greedy snakes, or you can develop your own templates and screens;

High refresh rate can synchronize sound and picture.

There are 7 additional surround lighting LEDs hidden around the board

3 on the bottom, 4 below the speaker

2W, 4Ω high quality speaker with IS2 amplifier

Can be used to listen to music or some other recorded sounds

You can use Sonic Pi to edit a piece of music or create your own game background music

200Hz – 11kHz Automatic Gain Control (AGC) microphone

Combined with Amazon Alexa service, it can fully interact with cloud-based smart voice apps

All of the above functions can be found in the (library) provided by pi-topCODER. Through the built-in Worksheet-based programming courses, users can learn how to use Python to implement these functions. Therefore, even ordinary users have the opportunity to operate this accessory as skillfully as experts.

This is what the unboxing looks like:
