Requirements
Which hardware do I need?
Kerberos.io runs on every machine but its main goal is to run on a Raspberry Pi. Therefore there are multiple ways (KIOS, Raspbian, Docker, etc) to install Kerberos.io on your specific device, it's your choice. If you want to run Kerberos.io on a Raspberry Pi you'll first need to buy some hardware.
Raspberry Pi
As said, you can run Kerberos.io on every Linux based machine, however we recommend to run Kerberos.io on a Raspberry Pi, as it is a low-budget microcontroller which can you buy in almost every (online) electronic shop. Therefore Kerberos.io comes with a custom ARM OS called KIOS (Kerberos.io Operating System), which you can deploy to your Raspberry Pi in just a few minutes. Kerberos.io supports all Raspberry Pi versions (1, 2, 3 and Zero).
For the moment of writing (2016), we do not support other boards.
SD card
If you want to use your Raspberry Pi, you will need to have a SD card, on which an OS will be installed. Therefore you will need a 2GB or bigger SD card.
Power supply
You will need to have a micro USB 5V charger, to give the Raspberry Pi some juice.
Camera
Kerberos.io works with the full range of camera's. You can use an USB-, IP- or the Raspberry Pi camera (v1.3 and v2.1).
Optional
You can use a WIFI dongle instead of an ethernet cable, but this is not required. We recommend the Edimax ew-7811un WIFI dongle; this is not necessary for the Raspberry Pi 3 as this is built-in.
