This is a surprisingly straight forward project that has minimal in the way of hardware requirements. Below you'll find a list of everything we recommend / assume.
|
||||
|
||||
* [Raspberry Pi 4](https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-4-model-b/) with at least 2Gb of RAM
|
||||
* An equivalent board with at least 2Gb of RAM capable of running Arch Linux can be used instead but we do not support anythin but the Raspberry Pi 4 at this time
|
||||
* An equivalent board with at least 2Gb of RAM capable of running Ubuntu 64bit Linux can be used instead but we do not support anything but the Raspberry Pi 4 at this time
|
||||
* HDMI Monitor
|
||||
* [This](https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/CONFU-HDMI-to-MIPI-5-5_62010868927.html) 1440x2560 (2k) display looks promising and is being tested currently
|
||||
* [This](https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/CONFU-HDMI-to-MIPI-5-5_62010868927.html) 5.5" 1440x2560 (2k) display looks promising and is being tested currently
|
||||
* [Geekworm Armor Case](https://geekworm.com/products/raspberry-pi-4-model-b-armor-aluminum-alloy-case-protective-shell)
|
||||
* If you would like an always on fan, select the model with the integrated fan option
|
||||
* [Pimoroni Fan SHIM](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/fan-shim)
|
||||
* This has better cooling as well as on/off support than the Geekworm Armor Case with cooling
|
||||
* You probably want this instead of the Geekworm armor case with fans
|
||||
* USB to Serial adapter
|
||||
* There are a lot of options, choose one you know that will work well
|
||||
* Mini HDMI to HDMI adapter
|
||||
* HDMI cable
|
||||
* usb disk (thumb drive / ssd) for storing pictures
|
||||
* USB disk (thumb drive / ssd) for storing pictures
|
||||
* This is optional but will help prevent micro sd card wear if regularly changing photos or running backups
|
||||
* 2x micro sd cards (one for prep, one for install)
|
||||
* At least 8Gb in size, 16Gb preferred
|
||||
* The Sandisk Ultra Fit USB disks are great options and work well with the Raspberry Pi boards
|
||||
* 1x micro sd card
|
||||
* Must be **at least** 16Gb. The base install of software consumes almost 8Gb of storage, you'll want more than 8Gb to properly buffer updates and upgrades
|
||||
* Power supply (at least 3A to avoid voltage issues)
|
