Raspberry Pi, a credit-card-sized single-board computer developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, a UK registered charity organization, released in February 29, 2012. It consists of a Broadcom BCM2835 system on a chip, which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, a VideoCore GPU, 512 MiB of RAM and a Secure Digital card for booting and long-term storage. It can run Linux ARM distributions, along with C, C++ compilers available, native GCC and cross compilers. =Pi 2= The Raspberry Pi 2 Model B is the second generation Raspberry Pi released in February 2015. Compared to the Pi 1 it has a 900MHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 CPU and 1GB RAM. =Pi 3= The third generation Raspberry Pi 3 replaced the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B in February 2016, now featuring a 1.2 GHz 64-bit quad-core ARMv8 CPU, 802.11n Wireless LAN, and Bluetooth 4.1.

=Chess Projects= Various portable chess engines, notably Stockfish, were ported to the Pi, even suitable to build a dedicated chess computer along with self-made or commercial sensory boards. Xu Ji, Bora Mollamustafaoglu and Gun Pinyo, three students at Imperial College, London, wrote their own ARM7 assembler, and an own chess game written in it.

Gavon
Josu Bergara Ede has developed a new portable chess system based on the Raspberry Pi called Gavon.

Jaguatirica
Lourenço Araujo de Oliveira Junior is working on a chess entitity for a Pi cluster dubbed Jaguatirica.

PicoChess
Jean-François Romang's PicoChess is a dedicated chess computer based on Stockfish on Raspberry Pi and the DGT Board.

PuppetMaster
PuppetMaster by Folkert van Heusden is a multiple-brain incarnation of DeepBrutePos, running on a system with an UDOO computer and seven Raspberry Pi calculating nodes.

Embla Board
Embla Board by Folkert van Heusden is a self made chess computer board based on a Raspberry Pi 3 incorporating Folkert's engine Embla, new versions tested in a Pi cluster. Raspberry Pi cluster testing new Embla versions

DGT Pi
DGT Pi is a commercial dedicated chess computer expansion hardware by Digital Game Technology for their DGT Board integrated into a DGT3000 digital chess clock, released in October 2016. DGT Pi consists of a Raspberry Pi 3 with built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi functionality. Multiple chess engines are included.

Raspberry Turk
The Raspberry Turk is a chess playing robot developed by Joey Meyer, programmed almost entirely in Python to run on a Raspberry Pi incorporating aspects of computer vision, data science, machine learning, robotics, and 3D printing. The software is available under the MIT license, published on GitHub in March 2017.
