Abstract

The Raspberry Pi is a series of small, single-board computers developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation to promote the teaching of basic computer science in schools and developing countries [1]. The first Raspberry Pi was introduced in February 2012; however, the low cost of this computer platform and its flexibility have led to much greater use by hobbyists and device designers worldwide. According to the Raspberry Pi Foundation, over 10 million Raspberry Pis (now up to Generation 3) have been sold, making it the best-selling British computer [1]. Figure 1 shows a Generation 3 Raspberry Pi computer. The Generation 3 Raspberry Pi has a wired Ethernet port as well as built-in Wi-Fi. It also comes with four universal serial bus (USB) ports and a mini high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) port, allowing the Raspberry Pi to hook to up a monitor, keyboard, and mouse. A micro secure digital (SD) card provides the operating system to book the Pi.
