With the Raspberry Pi:
I've made a four wheel drive robot called Rover that uses brushless motors and 3d printed planetary gears. It's all CC0 open source:

I've made a smaller classroom style robot named Skittles that also uses brushless + planetary and is open source:

I taught a robotics class using the robot Skittles, and the students did a great job picking up Raspberry Pi. There's a lot of tutorials on the web they found to do their work!

I've made a "fake Philips Hue" light out of a SK6812 RGBW LED strip to go with my existing Philips Hue system. That uses this github project:

I made a humidity controlled chamber for mushroom cultivation:

I've made an RTK GPS system using two raspberry pis and two $75 GPS receivers to make a GPS system that so far looks to be accurate to within a few centimeters (when you have clear sky).

I replaced our dodgy bluetooth audio sink on our stereo with an Airplay node using this software:

I've added a wireless front end to some of my 3D printers using Octoprint:

What else? Well I just keep going. Professionally I'm a robotics prototyping engineer and I cannot tell you how much joy I get from the Pi and the things I can make with it. :)
