A Raspberry Pi is a small single-board computer. With the help of it, we can do things as simple as blinking an LED to controlling big robots. It enables people of all ages to explore computing and learn different things. But before every complex design, every twisted structure of programming involved in a project, there comes an idea to create something new, to update something existing, or to take something to the bee’s knees.
So keeping that ‘idea’ in mind, we have selected the Top 10 Raspberry Pi projects for you.
Mentioned below are the individual projects along with the video link.
10. LED World Clock
OBJECTIVE:
An innovative project that takes a simple wall clock to the next level. Along with time and date, it also shows the weather of the current location.

Components required for the project are:
- Raspberry Pi
- RGB LED Strip
- Breadboard
- Push Buttons
- Connecting Wires
- Op-Amp
- Power Source

6. Analog Music Player
OBJECTIVE:
It’s a cool project that gives the feel of an old electronic boom box with the modern raspberry pi controller. Interestingly, this music player has actual buttons to play/pause a song, switch to the next song, mute, repeat, and dim. It has a potentiometer to adjust the volume and a motorized fader which moves from left to right as the song plays. How cool is that?
Components required for the project are:
- Raspberry Pi
- Touch Screen Display
- Power Adapter
- Push Buttons
- Toggle Switch
- Motorised Fader
- Potentiometer

OBJECTIVE:
An interesting project that counts the radiation level along with a ticking sound as we bring any radioactive material close to the Geiger counter. Moreover, even after turning the power is OFF, the meter retains the counts. Furthermore, We can turn The ticking sound ON/OFF via the toggle switch provided in it.
Components required for the project are:
- Raspberry Pi
- Motor
- Motor controller
- Toggle Switches
- Counter
- Screws and bolts

4. Micro Quadruped Project
OBJECTIVE:
This project demonstrates two modes of controlling a quadruped robot. The first mode also called ‘Trot Gait’ involves the motion of two legs at a time. The second mode also called ‘Walk Gait’ involves swing of one leg at a time with body shift in between for balance. you can control both these modes via keyboard.
Components required for the project are:
- Raspberry Pi
- Battery
- Servo Motors
- PWM Board
- LCD Display
- Connecting Wires
- Push Buttons
