RASPBERRY PI cam developed AS part OF marketing campaign

Here’s yet one more example of well targeted advertising. This cam developed around a Raspberry Pi is a giveaway from Sprite. The “lucky” champion of the cam will have the enjoyment of seeing the Sprite logo as a watermark on all of the pictures they snap with it. however in the ideal hands it’s a basic hack to eliminate that “feature” (they published the Python script that adds the watermark) or to just scrap the parts for one more project. Either way, Sprite got us to state their name three times in this paragraph so the campaign worked.

The a lot of evident part of this develop is the custom-made cast resin situation that they came up with which is a gaudy cartoon-like monstrosity. It protects the case-less Raspberry Pi board, as well as mounts the Pi cam board to ensure that the lens is positioned correctly. The lipstick-sized module mounted in the lower back half of the situation is a 2400 mAh portable power supply with a USB charging port sticking out the side. This makes us wonder, do you have to wait on the RPi to power up before snapping a picture? If the size as well as color didn’t get you observed by everybody the shutter noise will. it shouts the name of the soda business whenever you press the shutter release button.

If you’re a lot more of a high-end photography enthusiast this DSLR wedded with an RPi will be of a lot more interest.
