Something I would definitely not have a need for, but it looks pretty cool. They various types of configurations.

Everybody is like “Ooooh it runs blender”. It’s kickstarter my dudes, these are promo renders. There is basically no information on the linked page other than “launching soon” (as in the kickstarter campaign is launching soon). So they probably haven’t yet gotten anything to run on this (so we know nothing about the UI /OS if they modified anythinf / plan to do so, or basically anything at all…)

Their own website has a bit more info, including a demo video of it running debian. The primary focus of the project is the hardware itself, but the rasberry pi base means that there is a giant pool of available software already out there.
Ok that looks kind of dope. I was curious about the battery life. Now I’m curious about its future price.
They estimated the production cost at 250 USD, so I imagine the kickstarter price will be starting around 300. But that’s just a guess.
They have an instagram account for conversations. This version only lasts 7hrs. I don’t think they are trying to revolutionize the world with this. You can see some of their other versions running. And since it’s open source I assume you can do whatever you want to it.
