Raspberry Pi 3 Model 3

...

The Raspberry Pi 3 is the third generation Raspberry Pi. It replaced the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B in February 2016. Compared to the Raspberry Pi 2 it has:

A 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core ARMv8 CPU
802.11n Wireless LAN
Bluetooth 4.1
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

Default login password for Raspberry pi are:

pi / raspberry

...

Arduino Uno and Arduino Sensor Shield

...

The Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P. It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz quartz crystal, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header and a reset button.

...

Sensors

...

Ambience Light Sensor
Thermistor
DHT11 sensor

...

USB camera

...

The USB camera is easy to use and it is interfaced to Pi.

...

Micro Servo motor

...

The micro servo motor can rotate at angle between 0 and 180 degrees and it is to be interfaces to the Arduino.

Add RaspberryPi to Local Network

The following steps will setup the wifi connection on raspberry pi. Before you can setup wifi connection on raspberry pi, you need to login to pi.

Login to Raspberry pi

You have two options to login to raspberry pi.

Using HDMI Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse

Connect a HDMI Monitor, keyboard and mouse to the pi and power on the raspberry pi.
Once it powers on and you can see Raspbian Operating System User Interface.
Open a terminal window by clicking on the “Terminal” Icon on Taskbar.

Using Ethernet Cable

Connect Ethernet cable from your personal router's ethernet port into Raspberry pi
Go to your Router settings and identify the IP address of the pi.
Then ssh to the pi using command
Code Block
language text
title SSH to Raspberry Pi
linenumbers true
ssh pi@<IPAddressOfPIFromStep2>

Setting up Raspberry Pi Wifi

If you have logged into pi using HDMI, open the terminal window and Open the file “/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf” using your favorite editor.
You need to be root or use sudo to edit the file

Working with Sensors & Actuators

In order to kick start working with sensors and actuators we have imported default model with project name (TQLRaspberryPi) and associated TQL Queries.

TQLEngine

TQLEngine is installed in folder: /home/pi/atomiton-release folder.

The engine will autostart once the pi is started.

TQLEngine User Interface

You can login to TQLEngine User Interface using following URL
