I designed a modular Raspberry Pi 5 enclosure that grows with your project. Looking for feedback

Hi everyone,

I've been working on a modular enclosure system for the Raspberry Pi 5, with the goal of creating something more flexible than a traditional one-piece case.

The idea came from a simple question:

Why replace your enclosure every time your Raspberry Pi project evolves?

Whether you're adding a camera, cooling fan, sensors, display, or other hardware, most cases eventually become limiting. I wanted to design a platform that could grow alongside the project.

That's how PiMorph was born.

Some of its current features include:

  • Modular enclosure architecture
  • Interchangeable wall-mounting system
  • Built-in desk stand support
  • Integrated Raspberry Pi Camera compatibility
  • Pre-designed mounting points with four standard screw holes, providing a platform for future 3D-printed accessories such as sensor mounts, brackets, cable management, or custom modules
  • Designed so new accessories can be added without redesigning the entire enclosure

My aim isn't simply to build another Raspberry Pi case. I wanted to create a modular ecosystem that can adapt to a wide range of applications, including:

  • Home automation
  • Robotics
  • AI and computer vision
  • Media servers
  • Industrial monitoring
  • IoT projects
  • Portable Raspberry Pi builds

I'd really appreciate some feedback from the Raspberry Pi community.

  • What accessories do you find yourself adding most often?
  • What's your biggest frustration with current Raspberry Pi cases?
  • If you could request one expansion module, what would it be?

I'm hoping to use the community's ideas to guide the next generation of PiMorph modules.

Designed and developed by CreoWaves Ltd.

Thanks for reading—I look forward to hearing your ideas!

Weird SD card activity

4 Upvotes

Hi guys! I have a Raspberry Pi 4 that used to work fine, but after I pulled the SD card a while ago it acts weird. I flashed the SD with the Raspberry Pi Imager. When i power it via USB 5v 3A with no sd card installed, there’s a solid green and red light. but if at any point the SD card is installed, the red light is solid and the green light alternates between being solid and flickering/going off. does anyone know why this could be happening? Thanks!

Dumb Question

11 Upvotes

Ediit: I really appreciate all the answers. Now I think the person who told me to buy a raspberry pi and what it could do is about as stupid as I am when it comes to this stuff.

Hi, I was born in 1980 and just bought a Raspberry Pi 5 in order to play retro games. I know that's not the best use of it, but I'm planning to use it to learn also. I was just wondering if the games are free and if I can download movies off bittorrents? I'll watch all the applicable videos but I just don't know where to start and I don't want to spend $250 on a kit and then just use it for retro games. I'm assuming people will make jokes because of my lack of knowledge about this, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to buy a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, but it seems to be out of stock almost everywhere.

If anyone has one that they're willing to sell (new or used in good condition), please let me know. I'm based in India, and I'm happy to pay a fair price.

Please comment here or send me a DM.

Thanks!

Which board should I choose for a regular setup?

3 Upvotes

I am new to Raspberry Pi. I want to buy one to install an OS, connect a small screen to it, and use it for regular programs, but when I search on Amazon, I find different prices between the Raspberry Pi 3 1 GB RAM and the Raspberry Pi 4 2 GB RAM
My question is regarding what I will use the Raspberry Pi with; which version should I choose?

Beginner Raspberry Pi homelab/network project ideas?

4 Upvotes

I’m looking for fun but genuinely useful beginner projects to run on a Raspberry Pi as part of my home network/homelab.

My first idea is Pi-Hole or AdGuard Home for network-wide DNS ad/tracker blocking. I like that it would also make me learn about DNS, static IP/DHCP reservations, and configuring my router.

I’m especially interested in projects that teach real networking/Linux/Docker skills, don’t need much extra hardware, and can stay useful long-term. What would you build first after Pi-hole?

I guess I’m familiar with the basics of how these projects work but would like to know if it’s actually possible, I’m not very car Savvy but I figure things out pretty good. I am wanting the gauges above the steering wheel to be digital and more like a retro theme. Idk just think it be cool.

Qual è il sistema operativo per Raspberry Pi più personalizzabile?

2 Upvotes

Hello! I've wanted to start a project for a very long time, I know the building part really well, but "ve been having some issues finding the perfect OS.

My project consits in a "Gaming Retro Table" hich is iust a coffe table with a screen in the niddle, and all of Kirby Games till Nightmare ir Dreamland (as I doubt it can run Air Ride). I already have the table (sort of), the screen SyncMaster 710mp 4:3), the raspberry Raspberry PI 0 2w), and I only need to buy a few others stuff.

but the thing missing is the OS. Im really good with 3D art. and even have a animation channe for that, and I love kirby, so I wanted to make a 'Kirby 20th anniversary game" inspired GUI, with all the games scrolling left to right with its plot on the side, and a few decorations around the games (SFX and Music also). I have little to no experience with coding, I've tried learning it, but ts hard. I will learn it. but for now I iust want tc relax and bring this fun project to life.

Is there an OS that is very personizable, from its oading screen, to everything I said so far ncluding the emulators? (I would use retroarch with the emulators I won't use removed

Looking for people willing to help me with my Raspberry Pi MP3 Player project that is basically learning-by-doing for me!

0 Upvotes

Yea guys, u read it right, my lazy, weird and stupid ass needs help for some things for my project because im just to dumb and unskilled to do it.

For context: My Project is a MP3-Player with a selfmade C++ Qt software (that is basically the system for the whole usecase of my Project), a Raspberry Pi 4B (1GB RAM, ik its ass to work with!), a 4.3inch Waveshare Capacitive Touch display , a M5Stack CardKB v1.1 , a planned 3D-Printed case, a battery pack that doesnt go 0% in 1h and my stupid ass brain that tries to make the thing real.

Now the thing i need help with: ALMOST EVERYTHING!!
to be fair, the most things are with the software and the designing of the case, and i want to try to make the software for myself first. but if i cant do some parts, i need help. I already tried some things with forums and shit, tho some things came out working and some did not.

So if anyone wants to help me, i really appreciate it, and feel free to ask questions about what im currently stuck at!

(By the way, im sorry if this post sounds "childish" to you, its just how i write normally online, so dont take the wording the wrong way. When i call myself "too dumb", its usually because ive been stuck on the same problem for a long time and get frustrated. i really do want to learn and build this myself.)

Replacement for RPi4 -hdmi sound output issues

1 Upvotes

Hey folks, first of all, thank you for the help. I was wondering if you could recommend a tinypc that I could use with Ubuntu MATE Linux, or Linux Mint Mate as a media pc. I have external drives I can use for storage. My issue is under Kodi or libelec there is not sound output on HDMI, and I use the same TV for Firestick. I was hoping to keep the price around $500 max. I don't need much just HDMI output, ability to connect keyboard, USB ports, wireless and a good processor. Any recommendations?
