DGT Pi,
a dedicated chess computer expansion hardware by Digital Game Technology for their DGT Board, connected via Bluetooth or USB, integrated into a DGT3000 digital chess clock, first released in October 2016 [2]. The computer consists of a Raspberry Pi 3 with built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi functionality, and comes with multiple chess engines included. DGT Pi requires the DGT Board, and can not used to play engines stand alone [3]. DGT Pi uses a recent version of the PicoChess software aka python-chess by Niklas Fiekas to handle chess rules, opening books, and PGN files [4] [5].
