It’s easy enough to install RetroPie on your Raspberry Pi and run old-school Nintendo games at home. However, it helps the overall experience to get a case that looks the part. Please remember PIR sensors can be temperamental (and can also be impacted by WiFi, heat and other interference) so will need some tweaking to reduce excessive false triggers. Compatibility If you are looking for a passively cooled case for your Raspberry Pi powered home server, then SilverStone’s PI02 should be on your shopping list. This all aluminum case comes in two pieces which slot on top of one another. Inside the lower piece are four raised screw points used to secure the Raspberry Pi 4 to the case and prevent the Pi from slipping and shorting. But the real dream, and one that is genuinely more interesting than my iPhone camera, is custom 3D-printed case. That could turn the Pi Hawk-eye Camera into a unique point-and-shoot, albeit one with a few more quirks than your average smartphone.
The posting rules aim to help you better articulate your questions and be descriptive enough to get help. Ive seen all the other cases and frankly wouldn't waste my money. I know what works and I'm working on making it available. The new Raspberry Pi Camera v2 has been rebuilt from the ground up, using a different circuit board, simpler components, and a new sensor chip as it provides a crisp, 8-megapixel photograph. The prior Omnivision 5-megapixel was changed for a new 8-megapixel Sony IMX219 module. As of 04/03/21: Enlarged HDMI cut-outs to fully accommodate cables. Removed Raspberry Pi 3 compatibilityA magnetic hatch on the top of the case provides access to the GPIO, a colour coded GPIO with all the pin references printed on the case! HATs can be used with the case but you may need to use a header extension to ensure that the board clears the aluminium top of the Argon One M.2. Just next to this GPIO hatch is a small slot useful to route the Pi Camera and official display cables through. You see, Its not beyond expectation that we throw the design out there for free, but sell the moulding tools to personalise or custom-modify the article. The success we predict is more in keeping with the DIY spirit. The Pibow Coupe doesn’t come with any cooling solution, but the CPU isn’t covered by anything so you can attach a heatsink, a fan HAT or Pimoroni’s own Fan Shim (our favorite of these choices), which just slides over the first 12 GPIO pins, but allows you to put a HAT on top of it.
It is by far the best case I have found for any purpose. Very easy to insert the board, puts zero strain on the connector or anything else, unlike many camera cases. Easy to mount and align because of the screw holes in the hinge (which you can reverse if needs be to help with cable alignment). Judicious use of silicone sealant as you put the two halves together and then carefully around the lens hole ought to do it? Would you regard this as 'fatal' as Bengt says? Or could you do a simple work-around by using a male-female short extension USB-C cord from the RPi board to the power port hole in the case, after unsoldering the Argon One port? Its much better to let the case breathe. Yes darling, water will get in. Then the design effort is to trap it, deflect it away from the criticals and let it out. I used to work for a world renowned architect ( search on Gabriel Poole ) whose specialty was making buildings out in the australian desert feel like they are air-conditioned when in fact they are not. We had 2 skins and went against all current government-directed thought with the outer skins as a dark colour. The hotter it got, the more convection current was induced in the cavity and as it was released at the top of the houses ridge ( those long box-like things ) the velocity had a negative pressure effect ( suction ) on the air inside the building proper. In the destructive Tropical Cyclone Yasi in 2010 ( that caused widespread flooding in Queensland ) our work was in the centre of the path, a town that was utterly destroyed. Except our work. Water entry? A few drops around the louvres - on the leeward side. The case comes with the PIR module and wires included. The PIR module is neatly mounted to the front of the case and the three PIR wires connect directly to the Raspberry Pi GPIO pins (5V, GND and GPIO 17).This allows your Pi to have 2-4 cameras to work in frame-level synchronization ( all 2/3/4 channels capturing at the same time), great for stereo vision and applications that demand multiple cameras. 8. CSI-to-USB Converter As of 13/01/2023: Front panel has been modified to accommodate the larger sensor of the new Camera Module 3 There's the standard Raspberry Pi 4 camera case, but one that's particularly caught my eye in the past is the weatherproof NatureBytes Wildlife Camera Case. It has an infrared lens for detecting motion, making it a neat wildlife cam to set up in the garden – if you buy the other parts, including an SD card and flash drive. The top section of the case has a series of stylized fins which aid in the removal of heat and provide a certain “industrial” aesthetic. I've been working on such a thing for the past 6 months in Revit, Sketchup, and Blender, for exactly the same use, a camera against a tree, and applying my past industrial design experience ( move over jony ive )
