We have refreshed ourselves on the subjects covered so far. Let's look at future projects that you can try. These will provide you with a few ideas on how you can expand existing projects and provide some starting points to build your own ideas from scratch.

First, we'll review the prototyping Pi Plate. Then we will look at the Gertboard and its background. Finally, we'll provide some ideas for future projects that could use the Cooking Hacks shield, Gertboard, Arduino or the prototype shield.

The prototyping Pi Plate

The Raspberry Pi prototyping Pi Plate shield is a kit provided by Adafruit Industries. You can find out more about it at http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-prototyping-pi-plate/overview. It allows you to create a prototyping shield that connects to the GPIO pins on the Raspberry Pi. You may be familiar with this principle from the Cooking Hacks shield, which you used to build your previous projects. Unlike the Raspberry Pi to Arduino shield, this is a kit whose components...
