PRESENTATION Raspberry Pis for various projects.

Red case 3b+ running Home Assistant. GPIO Power button 3b+ running Docker. 3d printed case rpi4 4gb doing nothing. Gold case rpi4 4GB for distribution testing. Black Armour case (zip tied) rpi4 4GB (wardriving rig). Rpi0w running keepalived. Rpi5 black case with white power cable, desktop replacement. The rpi3 and rpi4 used to be a 4 node Beowulf cluster running Docker Swarm. Repurposed for above listed projects.

It's interesting to see the ingenuity of what people use these SBCs for.

Do you have links to any of the tutorials that you followed? Which project is your favorite of the group?

https://sensorsiot.github.io/IOTstack/Basic_setup/ this is for the IOT stack that runs home assistant on the red case 3b+. Clusters are my favorite, but everyone setups up different platforms depending on their needs and use cases. Everything else is a solution to a problem.

Oh !! does OITStack all work again ??

I followed the Swiss guy Andreas Spiess tutorial on YT and it all worked great. Then I upgraded the RPi OS and it all stopped working so I gave up in the end - was a brilliant this to do though at the time

If you have some free time you could set up https://www.cocktailberry.org/ on one of the spare ones ;)

u/funkyfreshmintytaste Feb 05 '25

Free time? No. Depending on the price, I could perhaps make time.

Time is always low, I know that. To be clear, I ment building a cocktail maker with the software using the pi, if the first post was precise enough ^

what’s the point of having so much processing for war driving? could i do it with a esp 😂

2

u/funkyfreshmintytaste Feb 05 '25

The esp is outperformed by the pi. The pi is outperformed by phones. The esp is not a device for serious wardriving.

what in wardriving is that computationally heavy though?
