The all natural linux machines. With a hint of berry flavor.
You’ll find everything you need at the above address. Basically, they’re tiny computers that can do simple computer things. If you’re familiar with Linux, chances are you’ve experience a rpi before. If you’ve seen cool tutorials on building mini gaming systems or other things like that, chance are that’s been done on a raspberry pi. They come in a few different versions. Right now we’re on model 3, but they also have a smaller version called the zero. The zero is about the size of a stick of gum, and is honestly impressive for how small it is and what it can do. Most feature wifi, bluetooth, and other connections, but they’re also “barebones” in the sense that you’ll need connectors, adapters, cables and more to make them work or connect to a screen. You can buy all sorts of “hats”, which are “shields” if you’ve worked with other arduinos, or compatible circuit boards that plug into a slot on the motherboards to add capabilities. A screen can be added, speakers, etc.
Electronics are like legos nowadays, so it’s easy to add things, and if you want something completely custom, it’s not too far off either.
For the cost of a sandwich, you can have a mini Linux board doing your bidding. We thought it would be perfect for making photobooths, and a lot of other people out there have thought of it too. We’ve linked to many different guides, so take a look at the builds and what we have in stock for you!
