Raspberry Pi and Arduino - Go to the Next Level

You’re already familiar with Arduino and Raspberry Pi?
You want to go further with those boards, and combine them to create more complex and powerful projects?
Welcome to this Raspberry Pi + Arduino class!
I will take you from an intermediate level on the two boards, to an advanced level, not only on each board, but on the combination of both.
At the end of the class, you will be able to create your own custom projects with Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
Note: this class is not for complete beginners, for example I will not explain to you how to write basic Python or C++ programs. You definitely don’t need to be an expert, but having a good understanding of both Arduino and Raspberry Pi will really help you get started.
→ Why this class?
Working only with Raspberry Pi, or only with Arduino, is already nice: you can do a lot of projects.
But sometimes, this is not enough. You will need to combine the strength of both boards: the power of software with Raspberry Pi (brain), and the closeness to hardware with Arduino (muscles).
When looking for tutorials/classes about this on the Internet, I found that they are all very simplified, and work with a very simplistic setup, and only for that setup. If you add any component, any functionality, you’re going to be stuck. 
So in this class, you won’t get a copy/paste example, but a complete (and efficient) step by step process to create any application with Arduino and Raspberry Pi. 
I will show you how to start a successful Serial communication between the 2 boards, and how to build an application with new components and features around this bridge.
→ How will you learn, how do I teach?
My method is simple but efficient:
WHY: Focus on the “why” so you understand what you’re doing.
HANDS-ON lessons to learn in a better way.
STEP BY STEP: Every lesson is built on top of previous ones.
PRACTICE with many activities and projects.
NO COPY AND PASTE!!! I write all the code from scratch.
→ What will you do in the class?
After an installation section to get all the tools ready for the class (including installing Arduino IDE on your Raspberry Pi OS), you will progress through 4 different parts:
Communicate with Serial between Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
Build the Arduino circuit for the project, one component at a time. Control Arduino components from the Raspberry Pi
Discover new Raspberry Pi functionalities - Camera and Telegram bot. Control the camera from the Arduino, and send commands to Arduino from a Telegram chat.
Complete Intercom Project (see preview video for an overview of the result). 
For each part of the class (1-3), you get several additional activities, so you can practice on what you’ve just seen, and link the new knowledge with the previous sections.
For the final project, together we will design a complete communication protocol, and we will also practice on the steps design: basically, how to plan/organize your application before writing code. I will give you some tips to help you design and organize your future projects, so you can start them and know what you need to do, in what order. This is something super important that I don’t often see in other classes or tutorials, and I’ve made sure to focus on this when creating the steps for the final project.
So, you want to build more complex applications with Raspberry Pi and Arduino? Don’t wait any longer and start this classe today!
As always, my goal is to give you the freedom to start and finish your own projects. With this freedom you won’t have to rely on some copy/paste examples from the internet, because you will have the foundation that allows you to really understand how things work, and build anything from scratch.
And that’s not all: all along the class I will share with you the best practices I personally use for my own projects. You will be able to create robust and scalable code - both for Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
See you in the class!
––––––––––––––––––––––
This class is for:
Students, Engineers, Researchers, Teachers, Developers, Hobbyists.
Arduino and/or Raspberry Pi makers who want to combine the 2 boards for more fun and complex projects.
Anyone interested in going further with Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
Anyone who wants to build serious robotics or home automation projects.
This class is not for you if:
You are a complete Arduino or Raspberry Pi beginner (in this case, watch first my “Arduino for Beginners” and “Raspberry Pi for Beginners” here on Skillshare).
You want a copy/paste solution to your problems and don’t want to take the time to understand.
Prerequisites for this class:
Arduino board
Raspberry Pi board
And a few hardware components (the list of components is available in a lesson at the beginning of the class + PDF “List of Materials”)
