10 amazing Raspberry Pi Zero projects | #MagPiMonday

We’re having a lot of fun with Raspberry Pi Pico 2 in the latest issue of The MagPi. However we didn’t want Raspberry Pi Zero to feel left out. We’ve been using one behind the scenes for extracurricular projects and remembered just how good it was, so we thought we’d highlight some of the best things ever made with it.

NODE Nano Server V2

Plug ‘n’ serve

This upgraded plug-in server works like a lot of modern Wi-Fi boosters where it’s just a plug. It’s very neat. We like it.

Penkesu computer

Handheld computing

A very tiny and a very cool looking laptop made with a 7.9”-wide screen and repurposed GBA SP hinges.

ZeroBot

Tiny robot

We had a very similar robot in The MagPi when Raspberry Pi Zero launched, and we still love the form factor.

Simpsons Shuffler

Sitcom randomiser

Ever just wanted to watch a random episode of The Simpsons without getting out your DVDs or scrolling Disney+? Just press that yellow button

GBA Raspberry Pi Zero

Handheld gaming

Hack your old GBA to make it a very comfy and compact handheld gaming system (with an added backlight)

3D printed case

Very cool

This 3D printed and laser-cut case is a very pretty way to not only display your Raspberry Pi Zero but also keep it nice and cool during operation.

Zero Drone

Fly high

Lots of folks love making drones with Raspberry Pi, and Raspberry Pi Zero makes it much easier

Tiny 3D printed Volumio

Walk, man

This is a bit of a mod on some Pimoroni audio add-ons for Raspberry Pi Zero that turn it into your next MP3 player.

My Naturewatch Camera

Critters on camera

This very DIY nature-watching project is a lot cheaper than some, yet can still take some wonderful wildlife photos.

GamePad Zero

Plug ‘n’ play

One of the first things we did with a Raspberry Pi Zero was glue it into a knock-off USB controller. This project takes it to the next level.
