# 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**](installation/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.

The **Scorpi B+**, a flexible Mount for the Raspberry Pi camera. |
