How to Connect a Raspberry-Pi to the Laptop or PC Display
Required devices:
Raspberry Pi
Ethernet Cable
Laptop/ PC
SD Card with Raspbian
Micro USB Cable
How does it Work?
To connect a Raspberry Pi to a laptop or PC display, you can simply use an Ethernet cable.
The Raspberry Pi’s desktop GUI can be viewed through the laptop or PC display using a
100mbps Ethernet connection between the two.
We used VNC server software to connect the Raspberry-Pi to our laptop or PC.
Installing the VNC server on your Raspberry-Pi allows you to see the Raspberry Pi’s desktop
remotely.
Setting up your Raspberry Pi
Install Raspbian OS on blank SD card.
Insert this SD card into Raspberry-Pi board.
Connect micro USB cable to power the Raspberry-Pi.
Sharing Internet Over Ethernet in Window OS
This step explains how you can share your laptop or PC with the Raspberry Pi via Ethernet cable.
To share internet with multiple users over Ethernet, go to Network and Sharing Center.
