What should I buy?

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 12 years ago

Hello everyone,

I have a project idea as follows:

My laptop connects to a mobile embedded device which is capable of communicating with the network.

After some searching I found out that you can ssh into a raspberry pi and execute commands on it like on the localhost.

I need a raspberry pi because I want to install kali linux on it for you know why.

To make it more fun I want to add a mobile component a rover or maybe a quad-copter depending on the budge(I'll prefer the cheaper one image).

Searching further has resulted in a confusion of rovers being built mostly on arduino.

So do I need both of them to achieve the task i.e. A RC controls arduino-rover and I ssh into kali on my pi?

Kindly guide me to a simpler implementation of my idea as to what components I'll be needing.

Thanking you,

Srikanth

    The Raspberry Pi needs an interface card to connect to motors and sensors in a vehicle.

    One solution is to use a ChipKit Pi which plugs into a Raspberry Pi and provides an arduino compatible interface for peripherals. This is a high performance arduino compatible solution that allows use of available arduino sketches and can be programmed via the RPi.
