With an LED strip, some carpentry, an Arduino, and rpi, I've brightend up my deck a little bit. The rpi is there to program the arduino while embedded and to have a web interface to control the lights. Still to do was to get Homebridge (which is working on the rpi) to turn the lights on and off using Siri.

For both systems I'm using CraftBeerPi[2], a python project with a pretty active community around it.
I wrote about it on opensource.com[3] and it was pretty popular, which surprised me a little bit. But I guess a lot of people in our community like beer :). I'm always trying to figure out how to make brewing my career without the related massive cut in income (please share any great ideas on that!)

Although not strictly a Raspberry Pi project, I have a couple C.H.I.P. boards[1] scattered throughout my apartment collecting temperature and humidity readings (using a HIH8120 sensor[2]) and feeding it to my Raspberry Pi which runs InfluxDB and Chronograf[3] to store and display a simple dashboard. The end result looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/cIrhSUq.png [1]: https://getchip.com/ [2]: https://sensing.honeywell…
What language did you end up using to access the sensors? I've been ~hoping~ to use Go to access the GPIO pins, but haven't had much success - any suggestions?
I brew beer with mine[1]. I use a CHIP to control an old fridge as a fermentation chamber. For both systems I'm using CraftBeerPi[2], a python project with a pretty active community around it.

I wrote my own small weather service, http://www.brilcast.com/, and re purposed the waterproof sensor to help track and record the process from lautering/sparging all the way to transfer to primary fermentation.
The setup is simple. Sensor code is written in Python, then it's sent to a SQLite database running on a Flask webserver. The frontend uses D3.js to visualize the data. The entire service is hosted on Pythonanywhere. It's quite spartan, but it works well. https://github.com/williamBartos/brilCast

I used one to build a photobooth for my wedding. The raspberry pi controls a DSLR camera to take 4 photos, stitches them into a 4x6, prints the photo and uploads everything to a Google Photos album which was displayed live on a projector.

1. Why not just run InfluxDB and Chronograf on one of the CHIPs?
2. How are you sending data to the Pi?
