I installed Android TV on a Raspberry Pi and learned exactly where DIY hardware meets its limits.

But if you want something a little more versatile, you may want to consider plugging a full-fledged computer into your TV.

It really does everything, if you let it.

The Raspberry Pi continues to reign as a cheap hobbyist's single-board computer, capable of easy Raspberry Pi projects that only require basic gear, or more complex ones, like a Raspberry Pi AI kit.
