The presentation provides an introduction to the Raspberry Pi, a credit card-sized single board computer developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation in the UK. It discusses the two models available, the technical specifications including the Broadcom processor, memory card and power supply. Applications mentioned include home automation, security cameras, media centers and more. Distributors that supply the Raspberry Pi around the world are also noted.

11. How it differs from other Board
Low power consumption
PC takes 65-250W
Laptop takes 15-60W
Low cost
Small in size
14. Handling the RP
-The Raspberry Pi was built to be used, but not abused.
Every
Printed Circuit Board (PCB) should be handled with
care.
-Handle the RP only by the edges of the board itself.
Avoid touching or holding any of the components on the
board.
-Rough handling can cause solder points to fail and may
result in short circuits, but be careful with the GPIO
pins as well.
