Raspberry Pi Tablet
(Redirected from Raspberry Pi Tablet Film Studio)
Contents
Introduction
- A touch-screen tablet shaped computer made from a Raspberry Pi is a low-hanging fruit type of project featuring the integration of advanced DIY computing (1.4 Ghz quad core, 1 G RAM) with open source 3D printing. A 3D printed case can be used, and with a bluetooth headset - the combination can be turned into a smart phone or "phablet".
- Phone can be added via an auxiliary Pi Zero for low power requirement when used as a phone with the other Pi as the main computer. Just sayin.
- Low end models are good educational/gift kits, high end models with things such as data logger ports, or barcode/qr code readers are especially usefull in research and logistics/sales enviroments respectively
- May be used as a thin client from a server, for example to run FreeCAD?
