MonitorPI

Active

A Raspberry Pi setup with motion-sensing display for ambient dashboards and household information.

Raspberry PiHardwarePython

MonitorPI turns a Raspberry Pi with a touch screen into a smart ambient display — it wakes up when you walk by and shows useful information (weather, calendar, system status, whatever you configure), then goes back to sleep.

What it does

  • Motion-activated display — screen turns on when it detects presence, off when you leave
  • Configurable dashboards — show whatever’s useful for your household
  • Simple setup script — one command to configure a fresh Pi
  • Low power — designed to run 24/7 without noticeable electricity cost
