Core Technology

Raspberry Pi Zero W (Core Electronics $20) 32Gb microSD card (kmart $12)

Power

USB powerbank (kmart $5)

We should eventually switch to:

  • Adafruit PowerBoost 500 (or 1000?) C (allows USB power and charging)
  • smallest Lipo battery Adafruit sells

This will be a lot lighter than a powerbank, but is more expensive

Sensors

BMP pressure/temperature sensor ($17)

Future Upgrades

  • Pi Camera ** Note this needs a Pi Zero adaptor cable
  • 9 DOF inertial measurement unit
  • GPS?
