Mepitate

We all know a Raspberry Pi is a versatile little microcomputer. I've used it to control components of my house, water plants and monitor pets. All this time the Pi has saved me and I mostly squander it playing video games.

What if I could use the Pi to really enhance my life?

So, dear universe, allow me to present Mepitate. Using your own body's biofeedback loop and less than $40 worth of parts - you can enhance your mediation practice and reach enlightenment. You are welcome.

How it works?

Simple.

• The Raspberry Pi is hooked up to a PIR motion sensor
• When it senses motion it sends a pre-recorded mediation mantra (mp3) through the audio jack
• User knows stillness is achieved when the mantra stops playing

How it really works?

Magic.

In a process known as biofeedback, the Pi gives the user IoT level awareness of motion. This allows for a biofeeback loop - where the mind automatically strives to create stillness. The mantras are a bonus.

How to make one?

Simple.

1. Get a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B
   
2. Install Windows 10 IoT
   
3. Connect PIR Motion Sensor (see schematic)
   
4. Run Code (see github)i>
