In the world of DIY electronics and home automation, having a sleek, practical, and customizable control center is essential. But finding the perfect case that not only houses your 7-inch touchscreen but also integrates seamlessly with a Raspberry Pi can often be a challenge. That’s why I decided to design a simple yet effective solution that can help makers, hobbyists, and tech enthusiasts bring their projects to life with ease.
Crafted from just three individual parts, this 3D-printed case is designed to be both practical and versatile. With an emphasis on simplicity and ease of use, the model requires no supports for printing, making it perfect for anyone who has a 3D printer at home. The case measures 22 cm in length, 14 cm in width, and just 4.5 cm in height, offering a compact yet functional design that doesn’t take up too much space on your desk or wall.
One of the standout features of this design is the integrated Raspberry Pi case. This allows you to securely mount your Raspberry Pi inside the case, eliminating the need for additional enclosures or mounting solutions. Whether you’re using the Raspberry Pi for a home assistant, media center, or IoT control hub, the case keeps everything neat and organized.
Designed with flexibility in mind, this case is ideal for a range of applications, especially home automation projects. It’s perfect as a home assistant control center, enabling users to interact with their smart home systems directly from the touchscreen. Imagine controlling everything from lights and thermostats to security cameras, all from one clean and organized interface.
Whether you’re building a voice-controlled dashboard, a customizable home automation hub, or a smart display for managing multiple devices, this case has you covered.
When mounting your case to the wall, it's important to ensure that it is perfectly level to avoid any potential slipping or misalignment. Due to the weight of the Raspberry Pi and screen, there is a small chance that it may shift slightly to the left after mounting. To prevent this, consider using anti-slip pads on the back of the case, or make sure that the mounting screws are installed deeply enough into the wall. This will help keep everything secure and prevent any unwanted movement.
For a complete overview of what parts you'll need and to ensure a smooth installation, be sure to check the "Parts and Installation Guide" section of the file. This will provide all the necessary details to help you get the best results.
The combination of functional design, easy printability, and customizability makes this case an excellent addition to any maker’s toolkit. Whether you’re a home automation enthusiast, a tech DIYer, or just someone looking to explore the world of Raspberry Pi projects, this case is a great starting point for building your next creation.
So, take your Raspberry Pi and touchscreen to the next level—create your own control center today!
