Raspberry Pi Book of Making 2027

The future is here, and it's digital. Technology isn't just something you buy - you can build it yourself! With a bit of know-how you can 3D print moulds to make personalised soap bars, control a robot arm, add sensors and reactive LEDs to an old quilt, or anything else you put your mind to. Book of Making 2027 distils the essence of our favourite maker projects. Whether you want to build an underwater rover, a wordsearch clock, or a digital jukebox, there's something for you here. We've rounded up a few of our favourite makes previously published in Raspberry Pi Official Magazine, which should keep you entertained for an afternoon, a weekend, or longer. Build a simple sensor robot from scratchExperiment with long-range communication platform MeshtasticTurn a toy skeleton into a jumping, dancing robotDesign, prototype and manufacture a custom PCBTech is all around us, in the electronics that make devices work: the sensors, the motors, and the logic that controls them. It's in the 3D printed plastic parts, and the CNC-machined wood and aluminium. If you want to build something in the modern age, you need to be thinking digitally and physically. Fire up your 3D printer, soldering iron, or Raspberry Pi, and start making!
