Raspberry Pi : education tool for teaching photography II
Traditionally, photography lessons are carried out in an outdoor setting. Due to the lack of means to provide a large screen, which can be viewed by all, participants will have to gather around the trainer to listen to his/ her explanation and jot down valuable pointers. However, with rapid techn...

Traditionally, photography lessons are carried out in an outdoor setting. Due to the lack of means to provide a large screen, which can be viewed by all, participants will have to gather around the trainer to listen to his/ her explanation and jot down valuable pointers.
However, with rapid technological advancements, portable devices are capable of connecting among each other seamlessly. Since mobile devices such as tablets and mobile phones are easily accessible, learning photography can be leveraged by taking advantage of mobile technologies.
The purpose of this Final Year Project is to develop an educational tool based on a previously built application; a remote camera control system that allows user to control a digital camera remotely, via a Raspberry Pi using a mobile device. This educational tool revolutionizes the way photography is being taught.
The application enables instructor to share images captured wirelessly, with participants of the course.
