When an RFID tag is visible near the Raspberry PI it will start recording video automatically. Recording is done with GStreamer. The recorded video will be post processed with AVISynth to produce a professional quality souvenir video. The final product will be automatically uploaded to YOUTUBE. I’ve been developing this system for a while now. I have the software ready but right now it just runs on desktop PC’s. I need a small embedded to device like the RaspberryPI to to make it cost effective. The entire system will be automated and integrated together as a Qt 5 app. For proof that I am a great tester and provide good testing feedback you could check the mondoevelop and monotouch bugtracker at xamarin.com and look for my user name. I’ve been a software developer for many years now and I know what it takes to provide meaningful testing feedback.

- ✓ davespice (David Honess): The Raspberry Pi needs a good quality LOGO/Turtle Graphics interpreter. This is one of the best ways to teach programming to children. It’s visual and I think kids will go for it. My plan is to create an up to date LOGO interpreter but with an added challenge mode. Level 1, draw a line. Level 2, draw a square. Level 3, equilateral triangle. Slowly graduating them onto doing more complex patterns and shapes using functions, looping and recursion. With a free draw mode there is scope for users sharing content with each other and all sorts of good things. The app could also be ported to mobile phones to reach even more people thanks to the Qt framework. About myself; principally I am a Microsoft .Net framework /Javascript/Ajax/jQuery developer. I work in a UK based software consultancy (http://www.arcsoftwareconsultancy.com/), clients include Universal Music (USA and Japan), The Royal College of Psychiatrists (London) and the Wellcome Institute (London).

I have published the project on Github and it is called Renux, a Debian based OS aimed at embedded ARM systems. It is not completely done yet and I have some stuff that’s not pushed at the moment but it’s getting there. So… I think the RaspberryPi platform look very interesting and fun! I would like to help with the porting of QT5 to this platform. I would also like to porting my own Debian based OS, and to make it a stable platform to use for them who want to use Linux+QT Embedded as there development platform. The description of “Taku”, “Just the minimum Linux dependencies to boot Qt 5” sounds a lot like the end goal for my distribution Renux, so maybe I could help out in the community working on Taku as well. I have not done any huge open source contributions (yet :)) but I did report some bug in the Qt documention some time ago.

- User:vdvoskin Hello, my name is Vadim Dvoskin – I’m an entrepreneur as well as a Qt developer. One of my projects is a content service (video + flash games), available via a set-top-box (checkout this link http://3vi.tv/). Currently, the hardware we are using is way too expensive. In addition to that, it’s PC architecture (I lied before when I said that it was a set-top-box ;)), thus, we are having trouble certifying the solution with security authorities such as verimetrix, and securemedia. Raspberry PI is exactly what we are looking for because its ARM, its linux +qt (which is what we are on now and not planning to switch), and its relatively inexpensive. Given a Raspberry PI hardware, my developers and I would work on two things. 1. A VOD video player. 2. Webkit based browser used as a flash player. Also, in subsequent releases, we are planning to add social services such as video chat.

- ✓ User:alicemirror [Enrico Miglino]: I have developed a controller for a hand-made mill machine and built the machine too. This project is full open-hardware and open-source and was initially developed with a firmware based on Arduino board for hardware testing. This video [81] if the first test of the engine running with the controller while from the project main page [82] you can find an index of the components and here [83] you can find a knowledge base with the controller software and the hardware and mechanics schematic. At this point the actual state-of-the-art of the project is to manage the low lever controller board with a Qt Based application. With the raspberry Pi device I see it is possible to integrate bot of these elements in a single unit creating a very cheap controller interfacing the high level instructions to manage the graphic data directly on the machine.
- monkeyknight (Nicholas Kell): Build an easy to use robotics framework/platform using the onboard GPIO (similar to Wiring/Arduino). Create expansion boards for robotic peripherals. Using Qt5 for the kiosk-like interface for user interaction. It would be a great learning tool for kids getting into robots/electronics!
- carverdeacon (Carver Deacon): I’d create a simple robot controlling and monitoring device running with a basic touchscreen interface based around Qt so that common tasks and monitoring can be performed easily. In addition, there would be a lot of arduino and sensor work. Maybe even Kinect. Qt would be great for this because it’d allow me to port the interface to multiple platforms so that network control could be performed.
- ujwal2 (Ujwal Shrestha): Build Qt 5 based Arduino IDE for Raspberry Pi and even other port (windows, Mac etc). Learning will be even more fun with $25 Raspberry Pi and the amazing Arduino.

- ✓ User:trilion99 (Klaus Petersen):I would like to use the Raspberry Pi and its Qt extension for two purposes: 1. As a small, light-weight frontend interface for my anthropomorphic flute playing robot WF-4RVI [86]. The robot already runs on qt4 (e.g. qthread for motor control threads, gui for pattern generator etc.), so it would be convenient to port parts of the interface directly to an external control device. 2. In my company LP-Research [87] we develop miniature sensing units for human motion tracking. For the analysis of the resulting data and control of the sensors itself we developed an open-source framework OpenMAT. This framework uses qt4 extensively. Customers would like to use our system on mobile, small form factor devices as well. The Raspberry Pi would be an excellent platform for such a data-logger / terminal.

I have used QT Creator and PyQt to create user interfaces for Python programs I wrote for testing the embedded web pages and SNMP on the our products. I am working on a robot at home that I want to remote control using an Android phone or tablet via WiFi on a Linux platform. The Android device would control the robot using a QT touch display and show status on the display. The Raspberry Pi will be the robot controller receiving commands and giving status to a pseudo display using QT which can be sent to the Android device via web pages or maybe VNC for the ‘inside’ look. I plan on using the Android device accelerometers to control the robot speed and direction. This technonogy would be very benificial to handicapped people for controling such as a wheelchair by touch pad or motion using the accelormeters.
- ✓ User:abelvesa (Abel Vesa): Port our existing robot which uses Arduino to talk over I2C with a BMA180 accelerometer, ITG3200 gyroscope and HMC5883 magnetometer to estimate the 3D pose to RaspberryPi.

KDE
Mentored by Claudia Rauch.
This is a special allocation of 10 boards agreed with the KDE project.— Qgil 15:04, 24 February 2012 (CET)
- ✓ Claudia Rauch: KDE proposes to use Raspberry PI devices to further an already considerable commitment to Qt. In particular, Qt5 has been integral to planning the future KDE core architecture, as Qt has been since KDE started. The KDE Project has a core goal to be widely deployable, just as Qt itself is. It would be advantageous and motivational for developers and students to hack on Raspberry PIs, providing them access to a new range of devices and a simple, portable, leading edge platform for Qt development. We will use the Raspberry PIs for coding tutorials to encourage new KDE and Qt developers. They will also be used withexisting KDE/Qt developers to promote Qt5 development on low-end devices. There are also opportunities to promote Qt, Raspberry PI and KDE to general audiences. Specifically, we request Raspberry PIs for use in a Qt/KDE workshop from 26 to 30 March 2012. This workshop will be held in Tallinn, Estonia to promote Qt and Akademy, KDE’s annual world summit (30th June – 6th July in Tallinn). Following the pre-Akademy workshop, the machines will be used for additional tutorials and workshops, application development and testing, Qt/KDE demos and promotion, and developer recruiting.
Marketing
People selected in this area is expected to help writing blogs and publishing videos of projects listed above. They are also meant to take any opportunities to present and demo Qt 5 projects running on the Raspberry Pi in events. If this is not what you had in mind contact me, please.— Qgil 02:29, 9 December 2011 (CET)
