This is an excellent tutorial on RaspController. I can't wait to stay playing with it. I've got 4 Raspberry Pi running everything from home Automation, PiHole, Media Servers, and Security systems. I currently use RDP to access them from a Windows computer that works excellent, but this is over the edge interesting. Thanks for this great video. 👍✌️😊
My pleasure 😊 hope this helps you hit the ground running. Come check out our Raspberry Pi Workshop too - core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-workshop-for-beginners.html
Great content this. Probably already asked, but I have a couple of questions: 1. Source code for the app, I would like to modify it for a sensor I am developing 2. How do I control the Pi when its not on the network as the phone (example: I am at my office and would like to control my Pi, which is at home)
Hey mate big thanks. You can use port forwarding through your router which will let you access your Raspberry Pi over the internet. Make sure to change the default Username and Password of your Raspberry Pi to keep your security high. And I wish it was fully open-source but the team at RaspController hasn't taken the plunge yet, here is the official updates list - forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=158753#:~:text=Re%3A%20%5BAndroid%20App%20FREE%5D%20RaspController,-Mon%20Jan%2023&text=Sorry%2C%20this%20app%20is%20free%20but%20not%20opensource.&text=www.gallinaettore.com-,The%20instructions%20to%20ignore%20malware%20warning%20are%20disturbing.,because%20it%20sends%20SSH%20commands.
Hi I need to enter some numerical values in variables to the raspberry pi through the mobile which will control a few servo motors. Can i use this for that. if so how
If you are looking to access the Raspberry Pi from outside your local network, you will need to set up a port forwarding rule on your home. Then you can control it anywhere with internet connection! Give this guy a check - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AFeye1zLpFo.html
hello- how do I create a command on my simple pi app to open and play a vlc video on my raspberry pi 4? thank you for the help i am NOT computer person
As I said if the camera is being used it wont be able to open. A way around this is to have a USB camera hooked up that isn't being used for a process on the pi. This way you can see what's going on. Unfortunately most of my pi's with camera (pi camera) are Pi Zero W so I have tested it with higher pi models like Pi 3 and Pi4.
Very nice presentation. Rasp looks great, but what I want to do is basically the same, but over a cellular connection so that I am not dependent upon a network connection. Is there some way to get an IP link over a cell connection so that this could run at arbitrary distance?
Thanks mate, you can definitely use port forwarding with a router so that you can access your Raspberry Pi more remotely. However my understanding with using RaspController is that it won't work over cellular connection. You are able to provide cellular connection to a Raspberry Pi Board via a HAT (linked here core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/SPX-18018) which you can then use to access your Raspberry Pi Headlessly and Remotely. Just make sure to change the default username and password.
@@Core-Electronics Hey thanks! That gives me somewhere to start. I want to mount camera, sensors, etc on a scale RV off-road vehicle or tank so it can creep around the woods behind house and spy on the wildlife in the dark. But that would put it out of range of wifi in a few meters.
I want to make project of unlocking the door automatically by face recognition and if an unknown person comes it should give an alert message along with the photo of the person and if we want to allow them, we should control that opening through phone. Is that control of allowing can be done with this raspberry pi mobile app? can you please clarify my doubt and help me out in this project
Great video! Looking for a way to be able to use an Android device as touchscreen input/display output for the Pi over WiFi. So is there any way to view the Pi desktop or run an app on the Pi with touchscreen input capability using RaspController or any other method you're aware of if not?
Is there any way you can control it when on Mobile Data? Or on another WiFi Network other than my own? Whenever I try to control it on Mobile Data or another WiFi Network it says Connection Error Unreachable Host?
The Clever Italians put this software together, I just love what they've created. Specifically its was Egal Net di Ettore Gallina, you can find out more here - www.gallinaettore.com/android_apps/raspcontroller/
Cheers mate, if you jump into the article it talks about creating a Port Forwarding Rule which you can use to increase your range dramatically. Make sure to change the default password though to keep your security high
Hi could you please tell me if I wanna add on my rassberry pi audio option and wanna view data in a mobile app,Can I realise it with raspcontroller?? Also when I created a button( such as to open or Close the garage door) with raspcontroller,can I integrate that button function inanother app?
Give Volumio software an explore. That may just sort your needs without needing to create a new App. Link to software can be found here - volumio.com/en/
Is it possible to remotely control a laptop via Raspberry Pi from another country? I'm new to Raspberry Pi and thinking to buy it to remotely control my home laptop while I'm abroad. I would like to ask if its possible to controle it fully remotely with stable internet connection? and if I would have an online meeting at my home laptop, could I attend that meeting via my laptop that I take with me abroad if my home laptop is connected to Raspberry Pi at home?
Double-check both your Raspberry Pi and Mobile Phone are on the same WiFi. You may also get better results by increasing the Timeout Value when you initially set up the Pi. Also make sure that you have correctly type the username and password for the Raspberry Pi.
Great video, thank you! I have a question about Raspberry pi. Is it possible to install a client app? What I want to say is: Can you start your Raspberry detect it through the bluetooth with your phone and then install the wifi (just like the smart led). I don't know if i am clear enough? Do you have articles recommendation for me please? Thank you
Hi. Is it possible to control OAK d camera with the raspcontroller app. I am trying to do so. but it's not working. also, my USB camera option can not reading the address. Can you please help me? Is there another way(email) to communicate with you.
The best way to get help from us is definitely our Forum (that way you can include photos of your set up 😊 forum.core-electronics.com.au/. I see no reason why it wouldn't work, RaspController is an excellent way to start/stop Python Scripts.
Thanks man. You really helped me. but when i created a command to run the object detection code who works perfectly on my RPi, i recieve an error about cv2.imshow("Output",img). (error: Can't initialize GTK backend in function 'cvInitSystem'). Do you know how to solve it?
It may be because your SSHing into the system thus it doesn't have an opportunity to create a graphical UI which the GTK library is expecting to affect. If you VNC (I would recommend using RealVNC) into the system you shouldn't run into issues
If you have a separate computer that can flash a SD card then you'll be able to do it all headlessly and connect to your Raspberry Pi remotely through SSH to set things up. Here is a guide explaining how - core-electronics.com.au/guides/how-to-connect-to-raspberry-pi-3A-plus-remotely-using-ssh/
brother dose it need usb 2.0 port or usb 3.0? lots of time my usb boot has been failed i tried a lots of time to flash my micro sd card. i tried to verify my sd card speed to run a os compability ; its exactly appropriate to run a os. like 100+ mbps 64 gb sd card. from a real brand. San Disk. then i tried to see what os and petition i have. then i figured out a problem. i use windows 64 bit architecture. o have complex partition table of 2 Hard disk. one is SSD, and another is M2. both hdd run 2 different os. and both have complex logical partition. so that my usb burning mechanism messing with me. if its true. i need solution bro
brother your guided webpage saya i need to connect a monitor. which is my main problem. i cant to conmect a monitor. i have back to back hdmi cable. which provides hdmi mini/micro male port to regular size HDMI 2.0/3.0 male cable. i brought a hdmi + voga port Monitor. but the monitor didnt work. i Didn't re check the hdmi port of the monitor second time. so im thinking what the root of my problem. first i cant boot and and i cant also project the monitor. do i need a usb card reader 3.0? or a hdmi converter? if i have hdmi converter/adapter how do i measurement the hdmi male female. do i need a extension of a back to back hdmi cable? if i have problem with my os partition. can i switch back and try all the things from linux?
Not exactly the same. But you can get the Pico W to create a Webpage with buttons that you can access from your phone. My mate Michael did it to control his Garage door, come check it out here - core-electronics.com.au/projects/wifi-garage-door-controller-with-raspberry-pi-pico-w-smart-home-project/
hello, sorry I can't speak English. I'm using google translate. I want to ask, is it possible to display temperature, humidity, camera, GPIO switch on/off in 1 page? please give me the tutorial, thanks 🙏🙏🙏
Very nice video Tim !! I am interested in the Arduino version app as well... AND I would like to be able to connect a cellular sim card to my device.. In essence, I would like to create a phone connected plug. managed remotely.
Cheers mate and excellent ideas! If you are interested in a 4G connected Raspberry Pi board check this guide here. core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-4g-gps-hat/
This is an amazing app. Even the free version. It actually will install software it needs to the pi to use certain features. I especially love I can turn on my camera a watch what's going on. Be aware if the camera is in use it won't allow access.
Hi, may I know if I am able to blink LEDs on the app as well? As of now I am only able to turn on and off the LED. If that is not posible may I know any alternative apps that may help to blink the LEDs on the phone? Thank you!!
In this app you definitely should be able to blink the LED. Otherwise you can create a Python Script on your Raspberry Pi (that will do the blinking) and you can use RaspController to run this script through the terminal. Hope that helps 🙂
Permission Denied, please try again. Nope, can't log in. Changed the password several times on the pi. Have the IP address from both the Router Page and the Pi itself (hostname -I) and both give the same IP. Login with the IP and the password (I was just able to change on the Pi and still getting error messages about Permission Denied. This with the OS App. Just deleted it. I'll try Android App.
You can even do it using terminal commands via RaspController - Type and enter | sudo raspi-config | and navigate to the Interfacing options to find the Camera settings
That App is great I use it to turn off my Raspberry Pi and then I use a Smart Plug to completely turn off my Raspberry Pi and I also use the Smart Plug to turn on my Raspberry Pi but make sure you turn it off using the RaspController App before you turn off the Smart Plug because if you don't you can possibly mess up the Raspberry Pi because that would be turning it off the wrong way.
It is possible to access your Pi remotely but you will need to configure a static public IP (or a DynDns service) and configure the appropriate Port Forwarding on your router. But that is not covered in this guide.
Im losing my mind here. All i want is something like this but not over wifi. Maybe bluetooth? I want to be able to connect to my pi over bluetooth then set a network to connect to if im not at home
Mobile network are totally possible on a Raspberry Pi, come check this out - core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-4g-gps-hat/ You'll be able to control your set up anywhere on the globe with this set up properly 😊
