I want to install a mini PC and 7inch touch screen on my InMoov, and can't decide either buying the new Raspberry Pi 4 or the LattePanda PC.
The positives of using the Pi-4, are the power on/off functionality is easier to control rather than the LattePanda with has similar power off function to a laptop or standard PC, meaning I would have to switch this of separately when powering down?? Also the price is a lot cheaper for the Pi 4 4Gb verses the LattePanda 4Gb.
My main question is if I go for the Raspberry Pi, do I use ARC running under Windows or ARC-Pi under Raspbian ( version of Linux )??
Although I'm very familiar using MS windows and I used Linux going back many yrs ago, I'm a complete novice using a Raspberry Pi and Raspbian OS.

A single pushbutton would shut down the ezb and the computer. The starting of the computer (a remote computer start pushbutton) did an auto execute and would restart the ARC and the ezb/ v4. Works great.
Andy, would be interested in the code to shutdown EZB and PC, also the restart of ARC and the EZB via auto execute.
Yes me too. I think there is something in the panda bios to boot without hitting the power button. I'm going to look into it later today.
Aw yes, I figured out an easy fix to the synthiam save project to cloud...portrait mode in the display setting,BINGO! As a a plus to portrait mode everything like news stories,facebook feed all show up more info on a page and now all of ARC buttons show up on the 7" panda display!
Give me a little time and I will get it for you guys. Its packed away.
You have to update the bios, but after update the you have option to enable /disable the physical button for auto boot on power being applied.

Sounds interesting I may try Bios update , as it opens up interesting possibilities for the robot.
I am still away from home, but check out my questions in my posts lists. Auto Shut Down of Ezb and Computer, dated Aug 17 and Auto Boot and Connect to Ezb from December 17. All the information is there. If you need more I will get the old program when I return home. Thanks for reminding me about this. I need it for Olivia. I have a new Latta Panda Alpha and will need an auto restart an shut down for her
