Hi everyone,

So I recently aquired 2 raspberry PI's and I was wandering if someone had a nice idea to try out or something with them. I'm currently only using 1 as a private HTTP server but the other one isn't used. I was first thinking about creating something like a "smart home" or whatever they call it.

Automatic lights on, automatic boot up when I get home etc...

If you have an interesting idea, post below and I might check it out.

pifmplay was neat. It turns the rpi into fm transmitter. It even uses the clock pin on the GPIO, so you can tune it to any frequency you wish. Other than that I've used mine as a miniconsole for emulators, or as a set top box with kodi. My next idea is turn it into a car entertainment system, complete with gps and touch screen.

I use my as a home media center/torrent box.

A strobe light type thing that oscillates to the frequencies of any song you play through it.

Pretty coold, wouldn't that be something more for an Arduino though? I mean I have seen this before and people usually use an Arduino for this.

That sounds pretty interesting, I'm using the other PI as media center/file server already but I might try the FM transmitter you mentioned.

I wanted to code something before that would search all FM frequencies and if it would be static, it would discard the connection and move on, if it would be a working connection it would save the frequencie so I can monitor what frequencies are being sent out in my area.

Of course, I didn't buy 2 devices to just run Raspian. I'm a debian fan more anyway.

I love how you actually put "[bad joke]" since @mothered took you seriously.
