Raspberry Pi™ Model B+ Sensor Kit

Quick Overview

The Raspberry Pi Enocean Sensor Kit will get you started with the Home Automation and Security. The Sesnor kit includes a magnetic contact sensor, Temperature sensor and Pushbutton switch that can will allow you to control parts of your home. The best part is the case that comes with the Pi kit will hold the EnOCean receiver and the PIi. You can mount the case on the wall for surveillance or set it on your desk.

Details

The design is based around a Broadcom BCM2835 SoC, which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, VideoCore IV GPU, and 512 Megabytes of RAM. This revision B+ board features four mounting holes for easy installation, a built-in reset circuit, and can be powered via the USB data ports. The design does not include a built-in hard disk or solid-state drive, instead relying on an microSD card for booting and long-term storage. This board is intended to run Linux kernel based operating systems.

The Raspberry Pi uses Linux-kernel based operating systems. The Raspberry Pi does not come with a real-time clock, so an OS must use a network time server, or ask the user for time information at boot time to get access to time and date info for file time and date stamping. However a real time clock (such as the DS1307) with battery backup can be easily added via the I2C interface.
