Introduction

Raspberry Pi series are low cost credit card sized single board computers.  The Raspberry Pi models feature a Broadcom SoC that includes an ARM CPU and an on chip graphics-processing unit (GPU). Raspberry Pi uses SD card that facilitates users to swap out different versions of the operating system or software updates, hence, speeding the development and testing process. This is a great way to develop new applications/software and show these to customers in remote locations or at trade shows.
