I asked +Simon Stuart “can you make your Raspberry Pi 2 devices crash by flash light?” he did: it fails!
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/02/09
Too bad: it is indeed possible to restart a Raspberry Pi 2 by using a high power flash.
It appears that U16, the SMPS chip, is the culprit.
Yes, bit of bluetac on that chip and it survives the flash
Source: Raspberry Pi • View topic – Why is the PI2 camera-shy ?
Simon Stuart checked it:
it’s true!
Put the high-power flash (which I believe uses a Xenon bulb) on my camera, and behold a shot to the top of the board does indeed crash it every time!
Never in a million years would I have thought such a thing were possible!
At first Simon could not reproduce it: you really need a high power flash.
I’m glad I didn’t order any Raspberry Pi 2 yet.

$120 Raspberry Pi Bundle with LCD Display, Expansion Boards, Cables, and Accessories (via: Jean-Luc Aufranc – Google+)
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/12
Jean-Luc Aufranc. is a great guy with lots of knowledge in the embedded world (read his resume).
I’ve been interested in Raspberry Pi experiments for a while now, so I was glad that today he pointed me to this very nice kit:
$120 Raspberry Pi Bundle with LCD Display, Expansion Boards, Cables, and Accessories
You can get it through DealExtreme, which I will do soon.
(I just saw how a guy is using a massive amount of Raspberry Pi and custom ASICs to mine for BitCoins)

on my .NET research list: Mini (Raspberry Pi) and Micro (Arduino)
Posted by jpluimers on 2012/08/01
Computing on not so common platforms it so much fun, especially when you can use familiar tools for it.
A couple of years ago, I did a fun project with an USB WebCam, a Pololu USB servo controller, two servo motors, a servo relay and a laser pointer. The device would point the laser pointer at the biggest moving object in the WebCam view, and flash the laser pointer at it.
All code was C# running on Windows.
Basically there are two classes on “small” devices that run .NET code (apart from smartphones and tablets):
- Raspberry Pi:
Mini devices with more than a couple of megabytes memory running a kind of regular .NET Framework. - Arduino:
Micro devices with maximum of a couple of dozen kilobytes memory (a megabyte if you are really lucky) running the .NET Micro Framework
This might be a chance to lift it to a new level and embed everything in one device (:
The cool thing about the .NET Micro Framework is that you can do real time stuff.
