RPi books + project/ lesson websites

Useful books and websites about RPi, which I have access to. Have Raspberry Pi Hacks (2014)  code examples in github Kindle Unlimited Electronic Projects for Raspberry Pi Book 1 - Interfacing to LED displays, speakers and simple sensors , Seggy Segran  Basics + projects, LEDs , 7 segment display, music, Moisture Alarm, + Electronic Projects for Raspberry Pi Book 2 - Interfacing to Analogue signals Raspberry PI3: Enchanted Guide for Starters- Beginner to Pro , Thomas Charleston special interest: Image 21 Smart agriculture web application (location 757) Raspberry Pi 3: Beginner to Pro Guide , Timothy Short good general info beyond usual basics Websites http://www.toptechboy.com/raspberry-pi-with-linux-lessons/  Lessons 27&28 are about PWM and are good

Traffic Light Apps

Traffic light is a simple popular teaching application. Not surprising traffic light applications come up with Raspberry Pi in various ways as described here. Usual Traffic Light :   Red=Stop,  Yellow=Warning,  Green=Go  but still these traffic lights do not work the same way in all countries.   Ex:  Austrian traffic light  vs  US traffic light    Trivia :  History of the Traffic Light Options(HW/SW) for traffic lights on RPi:  LEDs using just GPIOs  - 3 LEDs on different GPIO pins  Step 1: 1 Blinking LED Gordon Projects  1: A single LED   (command shell, photos/Fritz) Raspberry Pi Things   RPi Blinking LED   (command shell, breadboard/ pin photos) Project 2: Flashing Single LED (Python, Fritz) Alternate Python example Introduction to accessing the Raspberry Pi's GPIO in C++ (sysfs) Blinking LED on Raspberry Pi using C Creating a “Blinking LED” project for Raspberr...
