Raspbian OS Installation

We will only need one person install Raspbian OS onto 3 MicroSD card and then all 3 Raspberry Pi will be powered up. Here is the Raspbian installation instruction:

• Download NOOBS
• Create OS installation microSD card
• Start the OS installation on the Raspberry Pi
• Setup Wifi on the Raspberry Pi following this document
• We will install Python 3.5 (because the NOOBS has only 3.4) and a lot of dependencies. Here is the details
