HAL or Hardware Abstraction Layer is the lowest level layer of the MATRIX Creator drivers. You can either interact directly with HAL, or use the higher level components like MALOS or the MATRIX OS to tinker with the MATRIX Device. This uses C++ drivers for available sensors and hardware.

Things Needed[AdSense-C]
Raspberry Pi
Matrix Device
Micro SD Card
Active Internet Connection
A Power Adapter ( Min 2.3 Amp)
Camera (Optional)
Step 1 : Setting Up Raspberry Pi
Download and burn latest Raspbian image to a micro SD card and insert it into the raspberry Pi.
Now power it up with a power adapter that can provide at least 2.5 Ampere. Now fire up your terminal and create a password for the user ‘pi’ by executing the command
sudo passwd pi
[AdSense-C]
Connect your Raspberry Pi to a WiFi router or Wired network and make sure it is connected by checking whether it is getting an IP address from the switch.
Now perform and update and upgrade by running
sudo apt update -ysudo apt upgrade -y
Step 2 : Connect MATRIX Device to Raspberry Pi
Now simply align the header pins and slowly connect the MATRIX device to your Raspberry Pi
Hey guys, welcome back. In this post I will be talking about the Arduino Gesture Sensor – PAJ7620. I will explain what PAJ7620 Gesture Sensor is and How to connect PAJ7620 Gesture Sensor to Arduino.

Introduction to Arduino Volume Controller In this post, I will explain one of the coolest Arduino Projects of 2019. This gesture based media controller or Arduino Volume Controller that can be connected to any computer running any OS. You can connect it to PCs USB port and it will act as a HID or a…
In the previous post, I explained what a MATRIX Voice and a MATRIX Creator is and the difference between the two. I highly recommend you to go through the first part if you are new to it and get a better understanding of the whole project. Great. Now you know what a MATRIX device is…
A few weeks back we published a tutorial “Home Automation using Raspberry Pi” in rootsaid.com which was well received among hobbyists and college students.This time, we are building a more secure and stable Ubidots Home Automation – The Global Cloud Network for IoT. What is Ubidots? Ubidots provides a simple and secure method for sending…
