Here is an updated, excellently designed stand that provides a sleek and sturdy look for the 7″ Touchscreen Display and Raspberry Pi. Say hello to the improved SmartiPi Touch Pro!
The SmartiPi Touch Pro is a case for the Official Raspberry Pi display and Raspberry Pi 2, 3, and 4. There is also a mounting point below the display for the Official Raspberry Pi camera V1 or V2. (Please note it is not compatible with the Raspberry Pi HQ camera.) The camera can be completely hidden with an included adhesive panel. The adhesive panel can also be customized with your own logo!
This enclosure creates an all-in-one Raspberry Pi computer with a single USB-C port or microUSB port in the back to power the components in the case. The Raspberry Pi is mounted behind the display and the ports are flush with the edge of the display. There’s even a fan included for keeping your Pi cool.
An included port blocking part for Pi 3 or 4 allows you to only allow access to the ports that you want exposed. There is also a second set of threaded inserts to mount your own development board or another piece of hardware. Perfect for an industrial or commercial application where you want to add your own development board to the case. The case is made out of injection-molded ABS plastic, so it can be drilled or machined for additional customization.
The 7″ Display is secured into the case with four screws, and your Raspberry Pi is enclosed in a compartment on the back of the case. A simple door covers the Pi in the compartment allowing for the display ribbon cable to connect to the Raspberry Pi DSI port.
Note: The Raspberry Pi display, Raspberry Pi, and Raspberry Pi camera are not included. Once assembled, the SD card, HDMI port, and audio jack are not accessible from outside the case. You can plug in an HDMI or audio cable into the Raspberry Pi inside the case, and then run the wire outside.
8-6-2021 (August 6, 2021) is the Snakiest day of the year and it’s also this year’s CircuitPython Day! The day highlights all things CircuitPython and Python on Hardware. See you there!
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
