A Raspberry Pi-powered digital display paired with a custom-built biography website, connected through a QR-code experience.

Overview

I built a digital display system to present changing biographical and historical content in a public setting. The project combines a Raspberry Pi-driven screen with a companion website that I also designed and developed, allowing visitors to explore more information by scanning the on-screen QR code.

How it works

  1. Display hardware. A Raspberry Pi connects to the display and presents the featured photographs and other visual information.
  2. Digital content. The display cycles through visual material suited to the current featured individual.
  3. QR-code access. Visitors scan the QR code to open a related biographical website on their own devices.
  4. Website development. I created the companion website to provide further information beyond what can fit on the display.
  5. Reusable system. Both the display content and the associated biography can be updated for a new featured individual each month.

Demonstration

Outcome

The project connects a physical digital exhibit with a mobile-friendly way to explore additional information. Its rotating content and linked website make it practical to update the featured biography without redesigning the whole system.
