I have a lot of experience with the Pi but take courses like this for review and to study other developer's code. This is a great course if you are starting to learn Pi automation, but I would recommend a starter course in electronics and python programming.

Course gives good information on motor automation project

By Gerrard Butler on 1/21/2022

Overall I found this to be a very good intro/intermediate course on using Raspberry Pi for two useful automation projects. Source code and wiring diagrams were provided and very useful. Video demonstrations were also helpful. I also learned some useful Linux commands.

I'm really enjoying this course.

By Yuvraj Kumar Srivastava on 9/21/2021

the way he teaches is very good but this can be more dicriptive

I'm just watching the lectures before I buy any of the components. I have a few Pis. The lectures are very easy to understand and I have no experience with using the GPIO pins.

Great coding, straightforward deployment, and strong start in explaining the Zero's function. Thanks for another awesome course!

By Saiful Islam on 6/21/2019

The course is very good but very tough for understanding. Too fast and no proper explanation of circuit diagram. The circuit diagram should be visible according to practical work. How to use GPIO heading it is also not clear. I hope the author will make some update on this. Thank you

Soy un programador con experiencia en C y sistemas embebidos, pero siempre tenía la duda de hacer algunos proyectillos para casa DIY. Hacer este cursillo me ha mostrado una manera fácil de ver como el mundo maker monta sus proyectos. Con esta perspectiva seguro que me animo a muchas cosillas.

Very nice demonstration of raspberry PI usage with real time projects.
