Ideal basic equipment for working and learning from home
Incl. Raspberry Pi camera module and Trustmaster USB headset for Google Hangout video conferences
Incl. Housing with active fan
Incl. original Raspberry Pi power supply
Incl. 32 GB SD-card with pre-installed Noobs operating system
In times when more and more home office or homeschooling is operating, a certain basic equipment is necessary. The 4. Generation of Raspberry Pi can also be a cost-effective alternative to conventional PCs. Whether browser applications, Libre for office applications such as spreadsheets or word processing or even media players - all these programs are already on board.
Work as a team or on your own
Connect with colleagues and friends to share files or entire folders, work simultaneously within documents with multiple users: Many services, such as the Google G-Suite or Microsoft 365, offer online productivity tools that provide smart collaboration across cloud storage platforms. With Raspberry Pi®'s fast GB RAM, you can do it all.
The clou: The Raspberry Pi® can also be used as a thin client for the remote desktop application "Citrix". This allows employees to access their familiar applications from home. It goes without saying that the release and setup of the internal IT department must be obtained here.
In addition to the well-known online tools, the various Noobs software collection also includes the pre-installed free Office tools LibreOffice Writer, LibreOffice Calc, LibreOffice Impress, LibreOffice Draw and LibreOffice Maths.
How to make the Raspberry Pi home office/home school-fit: Step 1: Connect the Raspberry Pi
The following basic settings must be made to operate the Raspberry Pi:
- Connect the fan in the aluminum housing to the correct GPIO pins (Red 5V plug/ Black GND plug)
- Mount Raspberry Pi in the housing
- Insert micro SD card with Noobs OS into the SD card compartment
- Connect mouse and keyboard via USB
- connect to the HDMI cable Raspberry Pi and monitor
- connect to the network cable Raspberry Pi and network socket (WLAN also available as an option)
- 5.1V AC Adapter Connect
Step 2: Installing the Google Hangout Camera
Using the Raspberry Pi Camera Module for Google Hangout, you must find THE 'CAMERA' connector on the top of the Raspberry Pi - it is located exactly between the second Micro HDMI connector and the 3.5mm AV connector. Pinch the shorter sides of the connector with your fingernails and gently pull it up. This allows you to connect the end of the flat cable of the camera to the so-called CSI connection. Hold the cable firmly and gently push the tab back.
Step 3: Enable Camera Module Access
before you can use your Raspberry Pi camera module, you must enable it in Raspbian:
In Raspbian, click the Raspberry menu icon, select Settings, and then click Raspberry Pi Configuration. When the tool is loaded, click the Interfaces tab, and then click the Enable radio button next to Camera. Click OK and restart Raspberry Pi to load your new settings.
CAUTION: If you skip this step, the Raspberry Pi will not be able to communicate with the camera module.
Step 4: Set up your microphone
Connect the USB headset to the Raspberry Pi via USB. Right-click the speaker icon in the upper-right corner of the Raspbian desktop and select Audio Inputs. Locate the headset in the list, and then select Click to set it as the default.
Step 5: Preparing to make a video call via Google Hangout
Click on the Internet icon to load the pre-installed Chromium Web browser. Choose Google Hangout for video conversations in the free web application. When you are logged in, click Video Call. You will then be prompted to allow access to both your microphone and camera. Click Allow on the prompt that appears. If you deny access, no one in the video chat can see or hear you!
Step 6: Invite Colleagues and Share Screen
You can invite colleagues/classmates or friends to your video chat by typing their email address in the Invite People field or by copying the link and sending it through a news service. They don't need their own Raspberry Pi to participate - you can use Google Hangout from any laptop, desktop, smartphone or tablet. If someone sent you a link to their video call, open the message on Raspberry Pi and join the meeting automatically.
With the option "Share screen" within the meeting, you can share your screen content and present it to the people present in the meeting.

The kit is specifically designed for video conferences with Google Hangout. If you want to use other video applications (e.g. Skype or zoom), please check in advance whether they can be used with the Raspberry Pi. Skype, for example, does not support 32-bit systems, so video chats are not possible.
