Zero!

How appropriate is it for the first thing in the Hacker Everyday Carry (HEDC) to be a Zero? There is a programming joke somewhere in there if you look hard enough.

The Raspberry Pi Zero W kit has everything you need to get started with the Pi Zero W. The Pi Zero W is small enough to be used in all types of portable projects.

 

The specifications are pretty impressive.

  • 802.11 b/g/n wireless LAN
  • Bluetooth 4.1
  • Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

Like the Pi Zero, it also has:

  • 1GHz, single-core CPU
  • 512MB RAM
  • Mini HDMI and USB On-The-Go ports
  • Micro USB power
  • HAT-compatible 40-pin header
  • Composite video and reset headers
  • CSI camera connector

One example use is the PoisonTap. It uses the Pi Zero to pull info from a locked computer through a USB port. You can see the full project plan here PoisonTap
