00:00.110 --> 00:05.570
Here is the list of materials you will need in order to complete 100% of the course.

00:05.600 --> 00:12.020
You can also download a PDF containing all the information as an additional resource.

00:12.020 --> 00:15.500
So first you will need of course, a Raspberry Pi board.

00:15.620 --> 00:22.870
I suggest you get the Raspberry Pi four version, but if you have version 3 or 2, that's also fine.

00:22.880 --> 00:30.260
Now if you get the Raspberry Pi four, you can choose between two, 4 or 8GB of Ram, the more the better,

00:30.290 --> 00:33.150
of course, but it also gets more expensive.

00:33.170 --> 00:38.130
I personally use the two gigabyte version and it works perfectly fine for me.

00:38.150 --> 00:41.900
For your Raspberry Pi, you will need also a power supply.

00:41.930 --> 00:44.970
Don't power your Pi directly from your computer.

00:44.990 --> 00:45.460
Okay.

00:45.470 --> 00:50.360
Your computer can't deliver enough power for the Raspberry Pi to work correctly.

00:50.360 --> 00:55.250
So if you have a power supply included when you buy the Raspberry Pi, that's perfect.

00:55.280 --> 01:00.930
Otherwise you can also use a phone charger with at least two amp and five volt.

01:00.960 --> 01:02.520
And that's what I personally do.

01:02.520 --> 01:04.420
I use my own phone charger.

01:04.440 --> 01:09.930
Now you will need the microSD card so you can install an operating system on your Raspberry Pi.

01:09.960 --> 01:17.550
Make sure you use a microSD card that is at least class ten and with minimum eight gigabytes of space,

01:17.550 --> 01:21.060
16 or 32GB of space is better if you can.

01:21.060 --> 01:23.700
And well, you really don't need more than that.

01:23.700 --> 01:27.110
And we will also use the Raspberry Pi camera module.

01:27.120 --> 01:29.670
This, I would say, can be optional.

01:29.670 --> 01:35.940
If you can't get one, you will still be able to finish the course, but the final project won't be

01:35.940 --> 01:37.680
complete without the camera.

01:37.680 --> 01:44.430
So if you get one note that you have two different models, the standard one with a green board and

01:44.430 --> 01:50.550
the newer version with a black board, the black version is perfect for walking in the dark but won't

01:50.550 --> 01:55.320
produce good looking pictures in daylight compared to the standard green version.

01:55.320 --> 01:59.460
For this course, I will be using the standard one, and this is the one I recommend.

01:59.460 --> 02:05.700
If you're going to buy one and don't have a specific project which requires working in the dark.

02:05.730 --> 02:09.960
Either way, all of the instructions will work for both cameras.

02:09.990 --> 02:10.560
All right.

02:10.560 --> 02:15.440
The components for now are the ones related to the Raspberry Pi side of the course.

02:15.450 --> 02:18.240
Now let's look at the Arduino side.

02:18.240 --> 02:24.240
And of course, you will need first an Arduino board, plus a USB cable that you usually get when you

02:24.240 --> 02:25.110
buy the board.

02:25.110 --> 02:28.680
Here, you can use pretty much any Arduino board you want.

02:28.710 --> 02:34.650
It doesn't really matter as long as you can connect to it with a USB cable and that you can have at

02:34.650 --> 02:38.310
least 12 pins that you can use to connect components.

02:38.310 --> 02:44.940
I will personally use an Arduino Uno board and actually not even the official one, but a clone.

02:44.940 --> 02:50.190
So you can use any Arduino version and get a non-official clone if you want to.

02:50.220 --> 02:52.560
That's going to work without any problem.

02:52.560 --> 02:57.630
And then we need a bunch of hardware components that we are going to control with the Arduino.

02:57.660 --> 03:05.370
One note for those components, you can usually find them all or almost all in either an Arduino starter

03:05.370 --> 03:07.500
kit or a breadboard kit.

03:07.500 --> 03:13.830
In fact, all the components I used for the course project are part of an Arduino starter kit I previously

03:13.830 --> 03:15.990
bought, which you can see here on the screen.

03:15.990 --> 03:20.460
I want to keep things simple so you can reduce the amount of stuff you need to buy.

03:20.460 --> 03:28.680
So either in a starter kit or both separately, you will need a breadboard, some male to male wires

03:28.710 --> 03:30.600
as well as some resistors.

03:30.600 --> 03:39.840
We will use 220 ohm as well as ten kilo ohm resistors, an RGB led which is an Led with four pins and

03:39.840 --> 03:44.970
well, if you don't have one, you can also replace it with three standard LEDs.

03:44.970 --> 03:46.620
That's going to work the same.

03:46.620 --> 03:53.280
You will need a push button, a passive buzzer that you can recognize with the PCB that you can see

03:53.310 --> 03:54.030
on the bottom.

03:54.030 --> 03:54.260
Okay.

03:54.270 --> 03:57.480
You should see that the bottom of the passive buzzer is green.

03:57.510 --> 03:59.640
You will need an LCD screen.

03:59.640 --> 04:03.060
The one I will use is a 16 by two character screen.

04:03.060 --> 04:08.730
It's pretty common note here that if you can get it already soldered, that's better.

04:08.730 --> 04:10.860
So you don't have to do it by yourself.

04:11.010 --> 04:18.900
And then a potentiometer, which we will actually use to calibrate the LCD screen and a servo motor

04:18.930 --> 04:20.220
if you can also.

04:20.220 --> 04:22.440
But that's not mandatory for this course.

04:22.470 --> 04:26.430
You can also get an external power supply for the servo motor.

04:26.430 --> 04:29.580
If you do so, make sure to respect the max voltage.

04:29.580 --> 04:31.260
You can apply to the servo.

04:31.290 --> 04:37.230
You can usually find this voltage on the servo motor description specs or datasheet.

04:37.260 --> 04:40.200
Well, that's it for the list of parts we will use.

04:40.230 --> 04:46.350
If you already have an Arduino board and a Raspberry Pi board, you can already start the course while

04:46.350 --> 04:48.360
waiting for the other components.
