Sound Controlled Light by Windows 10 IoT Core
In many buildings, there are sound controlled light in use. When you clap your hands, the light turns on. Now, with Raspberry Pi 3 and Windows 10 IoT, we can make a sound controlled light ourselves. The sound sensor I use is FC-04. As other sensors, the first step is calibration. 1. Calibration for FC-04 Sound Sensor In quiet environment. Connect VCC to DC 3.3V，GND to Ground. At that time, the …

Windows 10 IoT: Detect Range with HC-04 Ultrasonic Sensor on Raspberry Pi 3
HC-04是树莓派上用的比较广泛的超声波传感器，可以用来测量设备和物体之间的距离。可惜网上的资料很少有针对Windows 10的，几乎都是Python和C在Linux上的例子。 hackster.io上有一篇用HC-04做雷达的例子，但是设计的部件太多了，对单纯学习HC-04传感器的使用来说这个例子比较复杂。搜了一圈，英文资料最好的是这篇：http://www.guruumeditation.net/en/digital-io-with-windows-10-iot-raspberry-pi-2-and-the-ultrasonic-ranging-module-hc-sr04/ 国内中文资料介绍Windows 10上HC-04传感器的文章似乎还没有，所以就简单总结一下步骤。 一、物理连接 对于没有多少物理和电子知识基础的人（比如我）来说，第一步连线是比较难的。很多文章都一笔带过说“这很 …

Windows 10 IoT Development: Moisture Sensor for Raspberry Pi 3
I bought a moisture sensor like this recently. After some research, there seem no articles to indicate how to use it in Windows 10. So I figured out myself. This sensor has 4 Pins, which are: PIN Usage AO Analog Out DO Digital Out GND Ground VCC Power So, let's connect VCC to DC3.3v on RPi, I use PIN 01. Connect GND to any ground header, which I use …

GY-30 (BH1750FVI) Light Sensor with Windows 10 IoT
I purchased a GY-30 light sensor recently, this model is also known as "BH1550FVI". There seems no sample for this sensor on Windows 10 yet, so I tried to make one. The light sensor looks like this: My board is a Raspberry Pi 3, the GPIO layout is shown in this table: Because GY-30 is an I2C device, so we can not use GPIO to drive it directly, we must use the I2C ports. In addition, …
