How To Stream Audio Wirelessly From TV/Computer To Speakers

Hey guys its been sometime not posting anything here.To lend me some helping hand this time my cousin Sandeep Nayak who is a techie in Bangalore, has written a guest post. Hope this will be a guide to many who want to go wireless in audio streaming but don't have much know how about electronics.


Props :-
Bluetooth Audio Transmitter (Leoxsys)
Bluetooth Speakers (Reconnect)

Connection :-
TV Audio output/Computer Audio output --> Bluetooth Audio Transmitter --> Bluetooth Speakers

Story :-

So finally I got tired of wired devices and decided to go wireless. This need arose out of an idea to stream audio from my tv or computer to a speaker without using any wires.
The advantages I saw were that I could place the speaker anywhere in the room or I could carry it to any other room.
For this I faced two challenges,

1) Streaming audio wirelessly from TV
2) Configuring a speaker to accept wireless audio

Streaming audio wirelessly from TV
I got to know that there are Televisions which have a bluetooth feature in-built and it's possible to stream audio using that feature (Note:- However I am not aware if the bluetooth feature is a Receiver or a Transmitter or both).

Raspberry Pi : A Complete Overview

After publishing the first post many asked me "Dude what exactly is that Raspberry Pi",So this post is is an introductory piece about RPi.

As technologies like Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable tech are evolving in the present day scenario, Open Source technologies are playing key role in the evolution of such technologies. Raspberry Pi is one of such open source technologies which is widely being used by the developers and makers around the world in prototyping and building projects related to Electronics and IoT. There might be lots of questions tickling in the minds of many folks related to Raspberry Pi like what exactly it is and for what it is been used and what are its capabilities. Through this post am trying to answer all those questions.
