    • How to use Raspberry pi4 without display and keyboard with a VNC viewer.

      Raspberry Pi

      Screenshot from 2020-04-22 06-58-09.png

      The Raspberry Pi is a series of small single-board computers developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation to promote the teaching of basic computer science in schools and in developing countries. The original model became far more popular than anticipated, selling outside its target market for uses such as robotics. Usually, it does not include peripherals (such as keyboards and mouse ) or cases but they can be attached via the USB ports

      Download the os image: https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian

      rpi image download.png

      Then flashing the memory card for booting os (minimum 8 GB recommended, can use balenaEtcher)
      After flashing open boot directory from the memory card

      • Create an empty file and rename it ssh (remove extensions if any)
      • Create another empty file and rename it wpa_supplicant.conf
      • Open wpa_supplicant.conf and copy the below code
        country=US
        ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
        update_config=1
        network={
        ssid="NETWORK-NAME"
        psk="NETWORK-PASSWORD"
        }

      Replace “NETWORK-NAME” with your network name and
      “NETWORK-PASSWORD” with the password of your network

      Find the IP of raspberry-pi (Rpi)
      You can install the Fing app in your smartphone and connect it to the same network as Rpi.
      Then find the IP of Rpi.

      Install PuTTY SSH client

      • Type the IP of Rpi in the Host Name.
      • Then click open. Then a terminal opens asking your username and password. By default, the username will be pi and password raspberry.
      • Type sudo raspi-config.
      • In the window that appears activate VNC by moving the arrow key.

      Now to use VNC viewer
      Download it from:https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/download/viewer

      • Install VNC viewer
      • Enter the IP of pi in the window that opens.
      • Enter the username and password.

      If the display is not available
      Type sudo raspi-config
      Go to advance settings.
      Adjust resolution by selecting the appropriate one.

      @kowshik1729
      We couldn't find monitor during a hackathon and it cost the majority of our time to set up pi, this was the alternative that saved us back then.

      Hope it will be helpful for you to @kowshik1729
