Running ROS on Raspberry Pi and Odroid boards
As we discussed earlier, Raspberry Pi and Odroid boards work like a PC. We can install customized Linux on each board and install ROS on it. There are two methods to run ROS on these boards. We can either install a fresh version of a Linux OS on it and install ROS from scratch or download a prebuilt image of the OS with ROS. The first option is a long procedure, and it will take a while to build ROS on Linux. You can follow the procedure at https://goo.gl/LvW2ZN to install ROS from scratch. In this section, we are dealing with ROS installation from a prebuilt binary.
Here is the link to download Raspberry Pi 2 images with ROS preinstalled:
