The Foundation have just had a guest blog post put up from Allison Taylor of Wolfram Research. In the post, she describes Diego Zviovich’s work to create a DIY sous-vide cooker with a Pi, an MCP3008 analog-to-digital converter and a couple of thermocouples. The whole system is controlled by the Pi running the Wolfram Mathematica programming language.

Here’s Diego himself giving a demo of the circuit and programming:
