The Raspberry Pi is a small, low-cost computer developed in the UK to promote programming in schools. It uses a Broadcom system-on-a-chip and runs Linux. The Raspberry Pi was created by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, which aims to promote programming education. It has found applications in areas like voice-controlled devices, medical devices, and supercomputers. While low in cost and power usage, limitations include a lack of permanent storage and fixed RAM. Future uses may include smart monitoring systems using sensors. Overall, the Raspberry Pi provides capabilities for a low price that are unmatched by other computers.

3. Introduction
The Raspberry Pi
is a fully featured
micro-computer
squashed onto a
circuit board
measuring
approximately
9cm x 5.5cm.
4. Why the Name Raspberry pi?
The name Raspberry, in reference to
fruit naming tradition in old days of
microcomputers (1980’s).
Pi-this card sized computer is started
only to run python language, but the
design ended up with going more than
that.
So, Raspberry Pi is Outlived its name a
little bit.
5. Basic Idea of
Invention
The basic motto of developing this pi is to
develop programing knowledge and
experimentation in schooling level.
So, the Raspberry Pi Foundation designed
this little board here.
Raspberry Pi foundation aim is to see being
used by kids all over the world to learn
Programing.
6. Evolution
Elen Upton, Rob mulins, Jack lang, alan my croft
these are the names behind the evolution of The
raspberry pi.
The Raspberry Pi is the work of the Raspberry Pi
Foundation, a charitable organisation.
It's supported by the University of Cambridge
Computer Laboratory and tech firm Broadcom.
The Computer
Lab, the
spiritual home
of the
Raspberry Pi
7. Hardware
Some of the peripheral’s are:
HDMI out: This port is used to plug the raspberry pi into a
visual display(monitor/TV)
SD card slot: This slot is to manage memory by inserting
external SD card .
Micro USB port: This port is to connect the PI to a 5V power
supply
Broadcom 700MHz chip
Ethernet port: Ethernet port is an opening on computer
network equipment that Ethernet cable plugs into
8. Hardware
RCA video out.
Audio out: The
Raspberry pi has two
audio outputs
HDMI(monitor) and
headphone
jack(3.5mm), by which
users can switch at
any of two modes.
Dual usb 2.0 ports:
these ports plug the
raspberry pi to
mouse (or) keyboard
(or) external devices.
9. Operating System
Linux _kernel on
a bootable SD
card
Fedora
Raspbian
Debian
ArchLinux ARM
10. Built in Languages
in Pi
Basically, the device
invented to run only
python language but
device supports
several programing
languages like C, C++,
JAVA, Perl, HTML
5,JAVA SCRIPT, JQUERY
etc.
11. Applications
Can be used
for making
super
computers
Voice-Activated
Coffee Machine
Raspberry Pi
Medical Device
Input Shield
13. Why Pi..?
Low powered processor (5V)
Improved audio Sound Quality
Computer at a cheap cost ($35)
Able to display images or play videos at
1080p high
No extra efforts in terms of programming
required to learn languages like python.
14. Limitations
It does not have a Hard Disk associated with
it for permanent storage pi files, we have to
connect one externally or have to use SD
card for the purpose.
The RAM is a POP package on top of the SC, so
it’s not removable or swappable.
It will not be useful for bigger business
that already have big servers ,so that time
consuming.
15. Future of Pi
Raspberry pi claims a great
demand in future, because of
its multiple real time
applications through it.
In future, Raspberry pi is
capable of serving through
Smart Survivalance
Monitoring System and PIR
sensor. Through which we can
locate the number of persons
located exactly on that area.
16. Conclusion
Simply put, the Pi is a marvel: there's
nothing else on the planet which offers the
same capabilities for an equal price.
