I put a female header on the zero to make breadboarding a little bit easier. I also have a few breadboard-friendly pushbuttons and standard array of breadboarding supplies. In addition to the RPi zero, I’m using a few items from Adafruit, a 128×32 OLED display which currently costs $17.50 and a BMP180 temperature and pressure sensor which will set you back $10. It’s a proof of concept that is working well enough for me to want to show it off, but there’s still a lot of work to do. Full disclosure: this post describes a not-ready-for-prime-time build. I suspect there are some additional design objectives that I haven’t thought of yet, but this will be a good foundation from which to start. doesn’t require another computer to access data.reads sensor data numerically and graphically.can be operated from a rechargeable battery and/or solar power.So, for the microwolf MoP device (that’s probably too much), I want to have a system with the following characteristics: I don’t know which name will ultimately stick, so I’ll be trying them both out for a while. Before I came up with MoP, however, I planned on calling my Raspberry-Pi-Zero-with- Mathematica sensor system microwolf, since it’s tiny. I’m starting to like the phrase MoP ( Mathematica on Pi), so I think I’ll roll with it. (Hey, I think I just created a new acronym.) This blog post is a first in a series highlighting the design challenges I’ve encountered (and in some cases overcome) building Mathematica on Pi (MoP) devices. While it may be painfully slow, it does open up opportunities to use Mathematica in low-power, remote-sensing applications. Wolfram’s Mathematica can run on a $5 Raspberry Pi zero.
