Someone claimed that everyone who has a Raspberry Pi has done what I did with it: try it out then file it in a drawer marked "must play with later". To try and debunk this claim, here are some cool projects I have seen.
Update: I made some videos on how to write your first ever game on your Raspberry Pi!
This guy uses an old PSOne as a screen+audio, a phone battery for power, and a hard drive or mp3 player for storage.
A robot carrying a RPi on its back, controllable via the Internet. It runs a node.js web server, and receives HTTP requests to control it.
A playable Quake 3.
A video player, with a mobile phone as the remote control.
Story | Photos of launch | Photos from space
Balloon flying up to 40km taking photos using a USB webcam and saving them to an SD card.
A VNC viewer allowing you to create a thin client/terminal in other rooms of your house.
Also see the Raspberry Pi Thin Client project, for a small distro containing VMWare, Remote Desktop, Citrix Receiver & a browser.
A ZX Spectrum Emulator, taking the nostalgia to the max.
Make your own £25 web server.
A voice-controlled robot arm.
A Pi playing the Glockenspeil.
Pi Plays Poppins from Mike Cook on Vimeo.
A tank, currently directly controlled by typing into ssh. They are working on an autonomous version.
My own tutorial on how to write computer programs in Python on your Pi. You will make a very simple game.
There are lots of people talking about ideas for projects. Here are some I'd like to see come off:
Voice-activated wall-mounted screen
Advanced alarm clock
Motion-activated lights and/or camera
Internet radio
Coffee machine
Phone system
Web browser on your TV
Autonomous boat
