10 of the Best Raspberry Pi Zero
Projects So Far

Revolutionizing pretty much every Raspberry Pi project so far, the Pi Zero’s compact form factor
but lack of full-size USB and Ethernet ports make it attractive and challenging in equal
measure. But despite it only being available since December 2015 (and even then, in short
supply), the Pi Zero has had a huge impact.
If you managed to get one, and you’re looking for projects or inspiration for your $5 personal
computer, here are ten great Raspberry Pi Zero projects to get you started.

PiSaber
With
this Python script,
a pool noodle and some LEDs, you can take the first step into becoming a
Jedi by building your own lightsaber!
Richard Hayler shows you how.
!
The idea is simple: you
mount
the
Pi Zero plus a battery
into one end of the pool noodle, along
with a few LEDs to create the appearance of an illuminated lightsaber. Safer than the plastic
toys, this is a great bit of DIY fun that you can enhance by decorating the
“handle”
end and if
you have enough length, you might be able to build two pool noodle PiSabers.

This is the Droid You’re Looking For
While you can’t quite squeeze the PiSaber into it, this R2-D2-inspired project is another favorite
with Star Wars fans.
Watch the video:

Known as R2P10, this features the Pi mounted on the back of a robotized R2-D2 toy (it appears
to include the wheels and motors from the
CamJam3 kit)
and utilizes the
Explorer pHAT board,
which sits atop the Pi Zero (connecting to the GPIO, so make sure you have
soldered
the pins
on!)
Teaming up the Pi Zero with a HAT and a toy like this is a great way to get started with robotics,
and with the Explorer pHAT sensors, you should be able to program the droid to move
autonomously and avoid objects.

A Compact Pi Laptop
We’ve already seen how the Raspberry Pi can – in some circumstances – be used as a desktop
computer. So you won’t be surprised to learn that it can also become the heart of a
laptop.
Various projects have come to light, from a Motorola Lapdock that has had a
Pi Zero retro-fitted
to the chassis.

Indeed, it isn’t beyond the realms of possibility that any old laptop could be given new life with
the help of a Raspberry Pi Zero.
Meanwhile, to see just what can be achieved with a portable Raspberry Pi Zero, take a look at
the
Pi Top project,
which is a ready-to-buy Raspberry Pi 2 laptop.

Make an FM Radio
Possibly one of the most audacious, ground-based Raspberry Pi projects yet, the FM Radio we
demonstrated previously can be adapted for the Pi Zero. All you need to do is ensure you have
soldered pins to the GPIO, and then
follow our earlier guide.
Watch the video: https://youtu.be/WDa_odxAGUU
Above, the folk at MAKE demonstrate how to adapt the project.
The MakeUseOf team would urge you to take care where you build this project, as in many parts
of the world transmitting on the FM band is a serious offence, carrying heavy fines and possibly
imprisonment.
