In this 6th installment of DJ's Live Hack Events, we'll be installing ARC on a Raspberry Pi, install plugins and control a robot. There's a conversation regarding NeoPixels and how to drive them from EZ-Builder. I'll connect a NeoPixel to an Arduino and control it via EZ-Builder.
The pi is $40 - even though they try to say it’s less. But you’ll never find a B+ for less with shipping. And you need a decent sized and fast micro sd card, which is $30 and then you need a power supply which is an additional $15-20
The latte panda is a great deal
Apparently disabling a ton of the graphic enhancements will speed it up quite a bit. It doesn’t use the gpu yet, so there’s a lot of room for performance improvements in the upcoming months.
The website is pi64.win
But once you are set updating your software is really easy and fast!
can you see it here?
indeed i cant copie it eather.

We had several issues supporting raspberry pi - specifically with the lack of agnostic hardware support. For example, different USB cameras required much user effort and drivers. Also, the robot skills created by our partners would not all be compatible due to the differences between Windows and Linux. Lastly, we found that users would require a lot of Linux-specific support to use the operating system, draining our customer support.
We do have a great tutorial that explains how to get Windows running light-weight: https://synthiam.com/Support/Tips-to-Make-a-Robot/free-space-with-windows-10
