Recently we had the pleasure of working with QNX Developer Relations to host a raspberry Pi workshop where we learned how to control traffic lights using operating systems and programming controllers.

Included in the kits were
- Rasberry Pi
- an electronic kit equipped with a Logitech web camera
- a set of accessories for the rasberry Pi (case, power, heat sink, fans)

If you weren’t there I can certainly say you 100% missed out. Be sure to stay tuned on our Instagram to see our next upcoming workshops so you don’t miss out!
