About The Raspberry Pi Guy

The Raspberry Pi Guy is a project that aims to offer you the best Raspberry Pi experience possible by providing free tutorials and educational videos on YouTube. On my channel, I cover all manner of Raspberry Pi based subjects in an easy-to-follow and accessible way: from DIY electric skateboarding to robotics.  This website features a catalogue of my videos and other work, Raspberry Pi information and my latest news. Check out my YouTube channel and follow me on Twitter @RaspberryPiGuy1


I am the author of “Learn Robotics with Raspberry Pi”, published by No Starch Press.  My book teaches you how to build and code a robot from scratch – with no prior experience necessary. Covering topics like basic electronics, Python programming, motor control, line following and computer vision – it is the perfect introduction for new makers and people wanting to get involved in electronics and coding. Learn more and order on Amazon or No Starch.
