Hi! This is my first time making a post on this forum, so sorry if I sound a little inexperienced ![:D]( "Very Happy")
.
I've had the Raspberry Pi in the back of my mind for several years now, but I never really got the chance to make anything with it, mainly because I was younger and all the information about it was over my head. A few months ago, however, I decided to challenge myself to make a portable 7-inch display, using:
- A Raspberry Pi 5.
- A ROADOM 7-inch touchscreen display.
- A Module 3 camera.
These were the original parts, and the project has certainly grown since then. After finding out that the Pi 5 needed more power than the earlier models, I ended up getting a power supply with an AC outlet in order to adequately charge it. Images of my (almost) final product for the project can be seen below.
In case anyone is interested, I have given the links for the keyboard and power bank I used below:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CLF ... 93QE&psc=1
https://www.amazon.com/Perixx-11005-PER ... r=8-9&th=1
I hope these links are helpful just in case any one else would like to make a portable Pi 5 project for themselves. Although it isn't really as convenient as carrying around a smaller Li-ion battery built within the case, and despite the fact that it's very expensive, it's still very nice to have.
Please feel free to put in any thoughts/comments about my design!
P.S.
Here are a few other major components I've used for the device, if anyone wanted to know:
- SSD and PCIe HAT
- Two Module 3 cameras
- Sound card (for microphone)
- RTC battery
- USB-C adaptor (so it can stand upright)
- GPS module
