A computer is a handy tool for photographers, but they're cumbersome to carry around. To solve this problem, photographer David Hunt decided to stuff a Raspberry Pi into a detachable battery grip for his DSLR camera so he can initiate wireless tethered shooting, have an extra USB backup, and more.

The H's Hardware Hacks section collects stories about the wide range of uses of open source in the rapidly expanding area of open hardware.
In this edition, a new hardware add-on board for the Raspberry Pi, using a mini-computer as the heart of a desktop arcade cabinet, and a low-cost ARM-based controller chip.

Introduction and Overview
As many of you know the Raspberry Pi packs some impressive hardware and capabilities, into a very tiny form factor, at a low cost. The purpose of this thread is to document all aspects related to the Raspberry Pi's hardware (I.E technical data sheets, PCB photos, schematics, etc.) to maximize development and learn more about the devices capabilities.
The credit card sized Raspberry Pi computer that sells for $25 now has a working version of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich thanks to a port. The development community has been working towards getting Android on the Raspberry Pi with CyanogenMod 7.2 and CyanogenMod 9, but this is by far the most usable.
Raspberry PI is one of the most acclaimed mini-pc, making a real impact in the Linux hacking community, but who would have thought it can be used for beer brewing. A Raspberry Pi and beer fan has created an interesting open source tool called “The Raspberry Pi Brewing Controller,” or shortly put, BrePi.
Due to the popularity of the Raspberry Pi and other boards like it, there was no doubt that many ore like it will be released, given the relatively low cost of production.
The latest one is called the Cubieboard. Compared to the Raspberry Pi, Cubieboard is loaded.
Which is your Linux hardware board of choice? Gooseberry, Raspberry Pi, Makey Makey, Allwinner, CuBox? Recently, we compared Raspberry Pi, Allwinner and CuBox Linux hardware boards.
Attractive though this board is in price at least, it measures about the size of a credit card, it is quite hard to get one I know I have been waiting 4 or 5 months since I knew I could place an order and still don’t have one. I don’t know how true this figure is but am lead to believe some 350,000 people have ordered and waiting delivery for their Raspberry PI Board.
