CrowPi is an educational tool based on Raspberry Pi, designed to help people learn electronics, programming, and basic computer science. CrowPi was first released on Kickstarter in May 2018 and won a very successful campaign. The initial users spoke highly of CrowPi and left several good reviews.
The success of CrowPi is based on the popularity of Raspberry Pi and on the unique advantages of the product itself, such as the compact development board, the neat and portable case, the step-by-step tutorials, and the affordable price.
As we all know, computer science and programming are now regarded as essential abilities for 21st-century students and are becoming a key component of many curriculums, even in primary schools. When we combine computer science and programming with electronics, we can build many useful devices both for industrial applications and for use in our daily lives. Some examples of modern applications for IT are: running a weather station, PIR automatic lighting, line tracking robot car, vehicle radar, and so on.
By mastering knowledge and these skills, today's kids can be better prepared for a future in which AI, lOT, big data, and robotics dominate the world.
CrowPi Function
The main purpose of CrowPi is to work as an educational tool. We can use it as a small computer to learn basic computer science and practice programming. We can also carry out many electronic experiments with CrowPi. What’s more interesting, we can play Nintendo games and build our own games.
Get to know Raspberry Pi 4B Hardware
Raspberry Pi is the most popular pocket-sized computer. It has been used all over the world to complete tremendous projects. Raspberry Pi 4B is the latest version. Before we get hands-on with CrowPi, we should master the basic knowledge of Raspberry Pi hardware.
Learn Basic Computer Science
As a small and affordable computer, Raspberry Pi is not as powerful as our Desktop computers or notebooks. However, it can deal with most of the regular requirements for basic computer science.
