raspberry pi lcd touch screen project pricelist

The 7” Touchscreen Monitor for Raspberry Pi gives users the ability to create all-in-one, integrated projects such as tablets, infotainment systems and embedded projects.

The 800 x 480 display connects via an adapter board which handles power and signal conversion. Only two connections to the Pi are required; power from the Pi’s GPIO port and a ribbon cable that connects to the DSI port present on all Raspberry Pi’s. Touchscreen drivers with support for 10-finger touch and an on-screen keyboard will be integrated into the latest Raspberry Pi OS for full functionality without a physical keyboard or mouse.

Make your own ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT) devices including a visual display. Simply connect your Raspberry Pi, develop a Python script to interact with the display, and you’re ready to create your own home automation devices with touch screen capability.

A range of educational software and programs available on the Raspberry Pi will be touch enabled, making learning and programming easier on the Raspberry Pi.

Update:As of October 2015 the touchscreen is now supported on the Model B and A Raspberry Pi in Raspbian. You"ll just need to add jumpers from SDA1 and SCL1 on the Pi to SDA and SCL on the display board and to add "ignore_lcd=0" to /boot/config.txt to be up and running!

Although it"s pretty easy to hook up a Raspberry Pi to a screen using its HDMI port, it"s not exactly the most portable of solutions (especially if there isn"t a TV or monitor around). The Raspberry Pi Foundation recognized this, so it set about finding a "simple, embeddable display" capable of giving Pi owners a screen from which to work from, but that also embodies the DIY spirit of the board that it connects to. It"s taken almost a year, but the official Raspberry Pi touch display has gone on sale today, offering tinkerers a 7-inch capacitive 800 x 480 touchscreen display that supports 10-finger touch.

As you"d expect, connecting the display to the Pi requires a steady hand and a little patience -- it"s not as easy as plugging in two ends of an HDMI cable (but that"s all part of the charm, right?). You can choose to power it via the Pi"s GPIO port or by plugging a microUSB power supply into the display board, while a ribbon cable connects to the Pi"s DSI port. The Raspberry Pi Foundation has ensured that both the display board and the Pi itself can be mounted on the back of the display (as shown in the image above), making it a lot easier to connect the various cables and also to store.

As it turns out, the Raspberry Pi isn"t the only maker board getting an official display. DIY computer kit Kano, a project that has been embraced by schools, has opened pre-orders for a 10.1-inch HD (150 PPI) LCD screen that also requires you to build it yourself. The case"s design also allows you to store the Kano"s keyboard and a third-party battery inside, making it truly portable.

The official Raspberry Pi display is available to buy at all the usual Raspberry Pi stockists starting from $60 (£48). There"s also six different colored frames to choose from, but you"ll pay a little extra for the privilege. If you"re new to the Kano, the kit and the display bundle will cost $250 (£200) or $110 (£90) for the screen on its own.

The cost of a Raspberry pi display depends on the type of projects that you generally make with raspberry Pi. For example, capacitive or resistive touch displays are ideal for small projects and TFT displays are best suited for larger projects.

A display is added to the Raspberry Pi as an output device thatgives users the ability to create all-in-one, integrated projects such as tablets, infotainment systems and embedded projects. Integrating a screen to the Raspberry Pi, gives the user a complete computer experience and multi-tasking can be done more effectively.

For Smaller Projects:The most ideal Raspberry Pi displays to use for small projects are Capacitive or Resistive touch displays. A capacitive touch screen is a control display that uses the conductive touch of a human finger or a specialized device for input. Resistive touchscreens work on the basis of pressure applied to the screen.

For Larger Projects: For optimized performance with larger projects, TFT displays are recommended as they offer fantastic resolution and definition. With TFT displays, the energy consumption is really less especially on a larger display. This results in lower overall cost. The TFT displays for Raspberry Pi offer higher sharpness, better visibility and no geometric distortion.

Raspberry Pi displays come in various sizes depending upon the usage and applications of the Raspberry Pi. Some of the displays compatible with Raspberry pi are:

The Raspberry Pi Touch Screen is an LCD display which connects to the Raspberry Pi through the DSI connector. In some situations, it allows for the use of both the HDMI and LCD displays at the same time (this requires software support).

I"m using it to run a lighting and irrigation system for my house. The color graphical interface allows me to use BMP images of my house and yard for control screens, and its built into an enclosure set into the wall for a slick professional look. I even put an access from the backside of the wall for wiring it without having to remove the Pi or the touchscreen.

Great responsiveness, inexpensive, can"t beat 10-finger multi touch! The python demos are really neat, too. Only gripe is that the screen isn"t oleophobic, but for the price I"ll take it!

This was easy to install and it looks good. The Touchscreen is responsive and clear, but you might want to use a stylus. The only issue i had is finding a case for it. You"ll want to get one right away, unless you have a 3D printer to make one yourself. The screen is really thin, so I didn"t want to carry it around without some protection. Overall, it"s a great touchscreen, especially for the price, and I like that it is Raspi-branded.

I purchased 5 touchscreen. Two before and three in January. Touch and display quality is superb. After two-three month of use (no rough use; handled with care), display LCD and front touchpanel (black bezel) break apart. They both are connected using a thin double sided tape. I was planning to use in industrial environment but after such issue, I dropped my plan to use it in industrial environment.

Five of two displays are not in good condition. First display"s touch-panel and display LCD was break apart after two-three month. The second among five displays had another issue. Display LCD was mounted slightly right side of the touchpanel. Once you power-up display, it is easily be seen that LCD panel was a bit off-side. The other display"s screen guard having so many scratches on them which seems mishandling.

I got a couple of these for several RPi projects that Im developing and they are working amazingly well for the application. If these fit your application needs I wouldn"t hesitate to recommend them.

This screen worked right out of the box! Touch worked great with my new pi 3! However aside how fragile the (non functional) edges are, the only real issue I see is upon shutdown of the pi... The screen goes through a series of screen washes/whiteouts and never really shuts off.. I have to pull power to get it to turn off.. I"ve even tried usb/provided jumper wires.. And both results in the same thing. Not sure if this an issue per se, but it is bothersome.. I can just turn the unit off, I need to unplug it too..

I am using Raspberry Pi 3. The display came up with no problems. I am just waiting for the Smarti Pi Touch enclosure (pre-ordered after the Kickstarter project closed) before continuing to work with it.

Basically, it "does what it says on the tin". It"s bright, relatively responsive and has acceptable color. Haven"t played much with the touch screen part of it yet, but very pleased so far!

The only question(s) that I have are regarding what sort of additional processor power is inside the screen, and whether powering it from the micro-usb connection whilst also bridged from the RPi3 is an issue (it hasn"t hurt anything, yet!).

I WAS DISAPOINTED THAT THE UNIT DISPLAYS EVERYTHING UPSIDE DOWN. I HAD TO USE THE LCD_ROTATE=2 COMMAND IN CONFIG.TXT TO FIX IT. THE INITIAL BOOT IS STILL UPSIDE DOWN BUT I GUESS AFTER IT READ THE CONFIG.TXT, IT FLIPS. SHOULDN"T IT COME STANDARD RIGHT SIDE UP?

Hmmm, it should, and this isn"t an issue we"ve seen before. I would suggest getting in touch with our Tech Support team, they should be able to help you out.

With so many, phone and tablets that have hi res screens, this is disappointing. It does what it"s supposed to, but has a retro look. Non techy relatives are not impressed.

The must annoying feature is the bright white screen when it loses signal as the OS shuts down. The touch input is inconsistent as input. I was using the I2C for a device was not able to get it going on the alternate I2C, but fortunately the required clock and data are on the DSI cable ... wasted hours finding that out. An OLED display, higher res, and lower current draw would be really nice in the next version.

I forgot to check that this LCD touchscreen don"t have a case. Much better that you have a notification (e.g. recommending the user to purchase also a case) when purchasing this kind of product. But thank you for this product, I will purchase again soon.

The only minor drawback that everyone should be aware (which is to be expected, honestly) is that the display draws quite a noticeable amount of current. The SmartiPi case comes with an splitter USB cable for the power source, but if you expect to use that, be prepared with a (very) beefy power supply, else you"ll get the thunder icon on the screen all the time and a very reduced performance (Just discovered that the RPi3 reduces its own clock when power is low).

I currently power this with a separate 1.5Amp supply for the screen and a 2Amp supply for the RPi3 and everything works just nice. This totals to a whopping 3.5A, which may be overkill, but keep that in mind as a reference.

I am impressed with this screen, I also got the mating case (SmartPi Touch) and it assembled nicely. With the separate case, the included jumpers and cable are not needed. The PCB was already attached with the standoffs. The packaging was super! The screen is slightly larger than 7 inches. I measured it as 7 5/8" wide X 4 3/8 high with a diagonal measurement of 8 9/16.

This official Raspberry Pi 7" touchscreens now come with the display controller already connected and mounted to the back of the display. You still need to be careful pulling forward the small black tab ends that connect a ribbon cable to the RPi.

I bought the companion enclosure as well. This Touchscreen works exactly as described. I am very pleased with the display. I ended up using a mouse anyway as the icons (while clear are very tiny) and selection areas are a bit small for fat fingers.

I connected it to a Raspberry Pi 3 B running Stretch and it seems to be working perfectly. I had been previously driving a VGA monitor from HDMI through an adapter. The RPI 7" screen started up just fine without changing or installing anything with the OS.

Based on other comments here and looking at one of these at a maker space, I bought the smartipi touch case for this; it"s strongly constructed and works great. Only issue was that I"m using this with a model 3 B+, and that takes a different door on the back than comes with the case (this is being fixed by the smartipi folks, but I don"t know the logistics of getting their new cases into Sparkfun)

I have tried other touch screens for the Raspberry Pi. They had complicated assembly and were very difficult to get them to work. This unit was easy to install and get working, is very nice looking. I am very Happy with it.

Right out of the box it worked. Didn"t even have to do anything to the RPi (in fact, both were taken out of the box at the same time, connected, and worked on the first power up). Screen quality is good for price. Also ordered the "SmartPi Touch" case which holds everything together very nicely.

Ordered it, a Raspberry Pi 3 B+, and a power supply. (Had a mouse, keyboard, and uSD on hand.). It came a couple of days ago, and I put together yesterday. Had noticed in the documentation that there"s a micro USB power input, and a standard USB output. In the configuration where the power supply is plugged directly into the Pi and the LCD interface is powered via a USB cable plugged into one of the Pi"s USB ports to the LCD"s micro USB, the LCD won"t light up at all. When the power supply is plugged into the LCD controller board and the USB cable connects power to the Pi, I get "low voltage" warnings (yellow "lightning bold"). When I use the provided F/F jumpers, it works fine, but this will cause problems plugging in other "hats", as well as clearance problems. (In my application, separate power supplies would be a BIG PROBLEM.) BTW, I checked with two different USB cables, and got the same problems as well as when I tried an Adafruit 5.25V power supply. (I was about to try a second RPi3B+ when the original one stopped booting. Fortunately I had another that I"d been using as a "pass-around" sample at talks, and fortunately when I tried it, it still worked, so now the "dead" one will be passed around!) Also, it could prove really useful to know what size those mounting screws are in case they get lost! Ace Hardware recently opened a new store about half a mile from my house!

The screen is portable enough to take with you and the Pi will use it with no configuration change when it"s powered up. Used it to set up several Raspberry Pis in a remote lab. Touch screen is nice but bring along a keyboard if you have to do any setup work. One thing to make it better, replace the jumper wires with a ribbon cable connected to 1x5 and 2x2 pin headers.

I have a Raspberry Pi in each room of my home and they run a Kiosk interface for home automation, cameras and more. I"ve tried some cheaper ones and none have survived. (I"m hard on equipment) I haven"t managed to break one of these yet.

Got a PI3+, 7" touchscreen and SmartPI case for manufacture test. I put these together and booted the latest Raspbian. The LCD and touchscreen connect to the display connector using a short FPC cable. The display booted and the touch screen just worked out of the box. There were some nice but not well documented improvements. They provide a Y USB cable to power both the PI and the LCD. This is a cleaner solution than the jumper wires they provide.I"m not a big fan of using lego blocks in a industrial environment but the case went together easily and does a decent job of protecting the display and the PI. Some reported a inverted display issue but that seems to have been resolved.

A truly plug-and-play display for the Raspberry Pi. Does not steal any additional extension connector pins if you power it with a USB power supply and leaves the I2C1 interface available for other devices.

Big enough for somewhat squinting actual Raspberry PI development and computer work, but really shines for touch screen optimized large button control panels.

You can just install a Pi3 or 4 on the back, but with a 4 you really need some additional airflow. The SmartiPi Touch 2 enclosure works better. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/16302

It works fine, no glitches, no problems, no hair pulling moments. Once electrically connected to my RPi 3B+ it"s good to go. I run it with the "lite" version of the Raspberry Pi OS with only xorg drivers installed, no full desktop or windows manager, as part of an in-the-field project with a HQ camera attached. My only complaint is the ribbon cable could stand to be about 6 inches longer.

It works great, the colors are beautiful, and finger touch works fine. What I like most is that the Raspberry Pi GPIO pins are all still available - except for one +5v pin and one Ground pin. Both are redundant (i.e. others are available). So, this is not an issue at all. I also like that data connects to the Pi via the IPS ribbon cable. Another thing I like is that power connects to the Pi via two jumper wires. The Pi is fussy about its power supply voltage. So, the jumper wires are better because they are heavier gouge than a small PCB trace.

I connect a Pi v4 and put the whole thing in the SmartPI Touch 2 case from Sparkfun and now it looks pretty professional. Make sure you use a good power supply.

Where is the documentation? This thing is so poorly documented it"s almost a joke. The whole point of the RPi ecosystem is to enable Makers and learning about electronics, so why isn"t this fully documented?

I used this to build a portable utility/testing device for my company. It works fantastic with the SmartiPi Touch Pro Case on Amazon. The touchscreen functions great, only thing is you can"t register mousedown and mouseup events in Chromium (only click). Other than that it"s great!

I got it working the first try, easy to follow instructions. Trying to learn Kivy with Python for touch screen programming, That"s a lot more difficult.

It"s bright, clear, good color rendition. Touch input is responsive and accurate. Trivial to assemble and get going. Like the multiple power options. Would buy again.

In the last few days, I get hands on an interesting Raspberry PI touchscreen display. I was wishing to use it to test some projects like a retro gaming console and/or a home control display, but using it I thought that it is enough interesting for being worth a dedicated post.

The display is the 10.1 inches version of RPI All-In-One product, from Uperfect. Please note that the Raspberry PI board is not included in the standard package and you have to buy your one apart from it:

This device is built to be compatible with Raspberry PI 3/4 model B and includes a specific space to host your Raspberry PI board. The packages come with all the needed pieces to install your Raspberry PI inside the box attached to the display back.

The Uperfect RPI All-In-One touchscreen display also includes an HDMI input port, to use this monitor with any other external computer, and a type-C input port (which has to be connected too at the external computer to pass touch inputs).

An appreciated hardware already included is the fan: all the RPI users know that cooling can be a vital factor to keep our boards safe, especially with Raspberry PI 4. The fan can be activated within the monitor menu and I experienced that keeping it active can reduce the CPU temperature from a working 66 Celsius degrees to less than 45 Celsius degrees.

Finally, there are also 4 back holes that can fit any need to mount this display to a wall (useful, for example, with Home Assistant or Volumio projects).

What really surprised me is that it worked out of the box with Raspberry PI OS Desktop! I was ready to start editing configuration files or other time consuming stuff. On the contrary, once flashed Raspberry PI OS Desktop in my RPI and installed it inside the display, I booted it and my touches were immediately working.

Everyone could think that having a touch display with touch capabilities would be enough from the start. Here I warn you that for the very first installation you will need anyway an external keyboard: by default, the Raspberry PI OS desktop doesn’t include a virtual keyboard, so you will need a way to input your settings for your Wifi/internet connection and then install a virtual keyboard letting you add your text inputs without external devices. Differently, you need at least to enable SSH access from OS flashing and this is the only alternative to work for the first stages without a keyboard.

So, my first test was with a classic Raspberry PI OS desktop installation to get a mini-desktop PC for blogging needs during my holidays without keeping with me a second notebook (the first notebook is from the company I work to, but I can’t install all of my software there for security reasons).

Please find below how I get my desktop installation. For these tests, I used a Raspberry PI 3 Model B+, but you can also use newer Raspberry PI computer boards with the “Model B” form factor.

As usual, I suggest adding from now to your favourite e-commerce shopping cart all the needed hardware, so that at the end you will be able to evaluate overall costs and decide if continue with the project or remove them from the shopping cart. So, hardware will be only:

Then, installation operation can be easily achieved with the producer User Manual and videos available from the product page, which well explains how to open the box, install your RPI and connect it to the display. The following picture shows my Raspberry PI installed, just before closing the back box:

Now we need also a virtual keyboard so that we can type directly from the screen without the use of a physical keyboard (this can be useful for some cases). For this, please use the following:

I didn’t need a mouse at all, as the integrated touchpad in my keyboard has been enough only for precision-specific tasks. Quite all the actions I was making in past with a mouse have been replaced with the touchscreen interaction. Also making small changes to picture with the Mirage application have become faster and faster as I was physically interacting with the picture (I have to say that my usual image editing tasks are only crop and resize).

The included Fan coming with the case is a bit noisy. There are at least 2 ways to do better with this. The first (and more invasive) one is by replacing it with a less noisy one. The second way is by letting Raspberry PI activate it only when needed. Raspberry PI gives the user the ability to control the fan from one of its PINs and set it from raspi-config tool (Menu -> Preferences -> Raspberry PI Configuration, then selecting Performance tab):

Giving the user a wire to connect a PIN and enabling this option would keep the fan activated only when the Raspberry PI temperature goes above a defined threshold, so also increasing the FAN lifetime. The point is that Raspberry PI GPIO is 3,3V out capable, while the fan could be of any other voltage. For this, a small level shifter would do the trick.

Once you mounted the Raspberry PI inside the box, you will note that removing and reinserting the microSD card will not be as easy. A microSD soft extender cable will solve this problem, by making it exiting from the holes near USB ports, but it would be a really appreciated accessory for people, like me, loving to have different microSD cards with different installations for different usages (so, needing to change it often).

The power button on RPI All-In-One display cuts the power which keeps on the mounted Raspberry PI. It is always better to avoid shutting down Raspberry PI by simply cutting power, as it could corrupt the filesystem and break its OS installation. So, remember to shut down properly the Raspberry PI before using the power button to close the display. A better solution could be letting the user connect a second wire for dtoverlay=gpio-poweroff configuration in /boot/config.txt and another wire for 5V (or 3,3V) GPIOs. The solution should work so that at the power button pressure a power off signal is sent to Raspberry PI via the first wire. Once the 5V (or 3,3V) output from Raspberry PI go to zero, which means that RPI has completely shut down, the power is completely put off for all the display.

Raspberry Pi, now in its fourth generation, opens up new worlds for makers through card-sized kits. The Raspberry Pi"s display is indispensable, it turns the Raspberry Pi into a computer that is easy to use anywhere. Here are some pertinent guides and views for choosing a Raspberry Pi display screen.

Screen size refers to the diagonal length of a screen, usually in inches. In general, project requirements and budgets determine the screen size required.

Screen brightness refers to the luminous intensity of the surface of the screen, usually with a 200cd/sq.m display, which is sufficient for normal use.

Screen resolution refers to the total number of pixels that can be displayed on the screen. The resolution is closely related to the details of the picture. If the selected resolution is not compatible, the display will stretch and shrink to fit the specified resolution, causing a huge loss of signal and quality.

Also consider whether the screen is compatible with the Raspberry Pi model. The Raspberry Pi display screen uses connectors for effective communication between peripheral devices. The most common connectors are HDMI, VGA and AV input. In addition, whether it is a back-mounted bracket, a stand-alone type or an integrated shell screen design that accommodates the Raspberry Pi, everything has to be designed to match the Pi perfectly.

Below is a list of all the best Raspberry Pi compatible screens available online. We provide many types of Raspberry Pi screens at very low prices to help you find a screen that suits your needs and projects：

When you want to make your Raspberry Pi or any other computer portable and compact to move around or bring it along with you, this 5-inch HDMI Capacitive Touch Screen Display can help you out a lot. This screen can be used for a wide variety of computers and Operating Systems (OS) and they are all listed in the review of this product (link to the review is below) so, please go to that page if you want more technical specifications. There are even cases suited for this display and the Raspberry Pi available additionally. This display mainly includes a capacitive touch feature which can assist you around in navigating around the display without a mouse, plus, this display has a very high resolution, a HD display for displaying pictures and images. To make your life easier, the setup of this touch screen display is fairly simple, especially when adapting it to the Pi and modifying the configuration files. Once the setup steps are out of the way, it will work perfectly as seen in the images below:

1. Before you even start, you would need the appropriate accessories to properly set this display up, which includes: a Male-to-Male HDMI cable, 2 Micro-USB power cables (one is optional, one is needed) and additional Pi accessories (mouse, keyboard, WiFi dongle, etc.). You can see clear examples of those cables in the picture below. The HDMI cable (black cable below) will be used for transferring data and all the information from the Pi to the screen such as all the visuals and display information. However, the micro-USB cables (a white micro-USB cable is below, you will need 2 micro-USB cables) will be utilised for powering up the display, powering up the Raspberry Pi (powering the Pi using a micro-USB cable is optional) and making the touch screen functionalities work on the display.

2. After you have gathered the cables needed, first, plug the HDMI cable from your Raspberry Pi"s HDMI port to the display"s HDMI port, exactly like the image shows above.

3. Then, plug in the micro-USB cable from one of your Pi"s USB power output ports (4 ports on the Raspberry Pi 3) to the display"s input USB port as seen in the image above.

4. Plug in any of your other USB or external accessories which you normally use with your Raspberry Pi such as a keyboard, mouse, WiFi dongle, etc to your Raspberry Pi"s USB ports.

5. Power up your Raspberry Pi now, either by the micro-USB input port on your Pi, the GPIO pins, or by the USB ports (only available on the original Raspberry Pi). For this example, I will be using the micro-USB input port on my Raspberry Pi.

6.Once your Raspberry Pi has booted up, navigate to the Terminal on your OS, whether it is NOOBS or Raspbian. The Terminal is most likely located in the menu toolbar on the top left of your screen. For this example, Raspbian will be used, but NOOBS will work the same way, more or less. Note: When you boot up the Pi with your OS, you may see a black area to the right of the screen (this is not seen in the pictures below), but, do not worry as you will fix that later on with the steps below.

7. Type the following command into the Terminal to run the configuration file, the additional picture below also shows the command written out onto the Terminal:

8. Scroll to the bottom or anywhere empty of that configuration page and add the following configuration text on that same page without changing anything else. The picture shows what it is like in the Terminal (in this example, I wrote the configuration text at the bottom of the configuration page as seen in the picture):

10. Reboot your Raspberry Pi to initiate the new settings added by using the command  below in the Terminal or by manually shutting it down as seen in the pictures below. After this reboot, the display will fit the screen and it will be working normally. When you use the command function to restart your Raspberry Pi, make sure to press "Enter" after writing down the following command below and as seen in the image above:

11. Now, after you have rebooted your Raspberry Pi as in the step above, your Raspberry Pi"s resolution should be completed with no black, empty screen area anywhere on the display. It should look exactly like the image above.

After doing tests with this 5-inch HDMI Capacitive Touch Screen Display and adding it to my Raspberry Pi, I would highly recommend this product to anybody, whether you want to make it portable or not. When you want to travel or move around, you could easily take your Raspberry Pi with you, without the need for a larger monitor when you have this display. This display also enables you to not need to many additional accessories such as a mouse or an extra power supply for a separate screen when you have this 5-inch display. The resolution is also very clear, mimicking what it would look like on a bigger monitor. Overall, this display isn"t a compulsory part to your Pi but it is suggested for any of your uses.

The 7" Touchscreen Monitor for Raspberry Pi gives users the ability to create all-in-one, integrated projects such as tablets, infotainment systems and embedded projects. The 800 x 480 display connects via an adapter board which handles power and signal conversion. Only two connections to the Pi are required; power from the Pi’s GPIO port and a ribbon cable that connects to the DSI port present on all Raspberry Pi’s. Touchscreen drivers with support for 10-finger touch and an on-screen keyboard will be integrated into the latest Raspbian OS for full functionality without a physical keyboard or mouse.

Make your own ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT) devices including a visual display. Simply connect your Raspberry Pi, develop a Python script to interact with the display, and you’re ready to create your own home automation devices with touch screen capability.

A range of educational software and programs available on the Raspberry Pi will be touch enabled, making learning and programming easier on the Raspberry Pi.

Featuring a quad-core 64-bit processor, 4GB of RAM, wireless networking, dual-display output, and 4K video playback, as well as a 40-pin GPIO header, it"s the most powerful and easy-to-use Raspberry Pi computer yet.
