For what would you use the new Raspberry pi module?

camuyano

I love the PI, and the new board seems interesting. But I asked myself for what others may use this board?

 

  • Please comment for what would you use the board?
  • Would this footprint allow you to improve a current project?

 

Shout out your ideas and see how creative everyone is about this. I am anxious to see the projects people do with this board.

  • Controlling a 3D printer with Raspberry Pi isn't a new idea. However, since the release of the Beaglebone and newer versions of the RasPi, I'm still comparing each and came across the IO board and compute module. With the limited RAM and processing power of each board. So far, only the host software Pronterface has been able to run without problems on the RasPi.  I don't know which one will be able to run the host programs, slicing software, and 3D modeling software such as OpenSCAD.

     

    Also, it's already been done before with a Raspberry Pi, but maybe a more personalized and upgradeable laptop computer.
