Tech enthusiasts have been adding all sorts of accessories to the Raspberry Pi, transforming it from a basic computer to something entirely different. Some integrate environment sensors into the board to create a weather station or a plant health monitor. Others use screens to make an attendance system or a DIY smartphone.
