RE: How To Automate Your Curation With A $5 Pi Zero, A Micro SD Card and USB Cable
Sounds really exciting. But I am lost from the beginning. Why do I need extra hardware? Can´t the computer simulate this? What kind of hardware is this? Sort of an Arduino? I will read the @ubg guide you mention right away. Thanks for this info, and for any comments on more basic info where I can get started.
Well, this is a bit outdated but instead of using the resources on your current hardware, this can be useful. Especially if you don't leave your Computer on 24/7, this little Pi Zero can be and uses very little resources.
Yes it is like an Arduino but is capable of running a special OS with a desktop environment designed for the Pi Zero.
Thank you very much. I´ll keep learning and moving forward.
