Cosmic Pi
Description
The Cosmic Pi project aims to build the world's largest distributed, open source cosmic ray telescope. Cosmic Pi is an open source cosmic ray detector. Our aim is to produce a low cost device that anyone can build to capture, share and study cosmic rays. We're using Arduino and Raspberry Pi for our electronics and currently prototyping a custom circuit board for the detector element.
