Raspberry Pi Tutorial
Welcome to the Vuforia Studio Raspberry Pi tutorial!
Scenario
In this tutorial, you’ll develop an application that integrates data from a Raspberry Pi (including other options that you’ll choose. For example, a distance sensor and/or a temperature/humidity sensor). We’ll show you how to capture, store, analyze, and visualize data utilizing Vuforia Studio and the ThingWorx platform. We’ll walk you through the following steps:
1. Generate an Application Key
2. Create a Thing
3. Set Up the Raspberry Pi
4. Hook Up the Sensors (Optional)
5. Copy Scripts to the Raspberry Pi (Optional)
6. Create a Project
7. Add a 3D Model to the Experience
8. Add a ThingMark
9. Add a 3D Label
10. Add 2D Widgets
11. Name the Experience
12. Publish the Experience
13. View the Experience in Vuforia View
What You’ll Need
• Access to Vuforia Studio.
• Access to an Experience Service
• The RaspberryPiKit.zip
• Download Vuforia View from the Google Play Store or the Apple Store
• A printer to print your ThingMark
• A supported mobile device (phone or tablet)
◦ For a list of supported iOS devices and Android operating systems, see the Getting Started Guide.
• Raspberry Pi equipment:
◦ Raspberry Pi—If you don't have one, purchase one directly from the Raspberry Pi web site, or from one of their distribution partners, element14, or RS.
◦ An SD card (8 GB or larger) with the Raspbian Jessie operating system installed
◦ Either a remote access application or a monitor, USB keyboard, and USB mouse to interact with the Raspberry Pi
◦ A power supply for the Raspberry Pi
◦ Local network connectivity with access to the internet
◦ A form of external sensor if desired (for example, an HC-SR04 distance sensor or a DHT11 temperature/humidity sensor)
