Over the years it has turned out to be a useful device for a number of unexpected areas, including being used along side HDHomeRun products. There are multiple models of the Raspberry Pi, but most of them will function well as an HDHomeRun client or "​streaming box" for TVs, and the latest version (the "Pi 4") can also work as a DVR storage device for **[[:​DVR|HDHomeRun DVR service]]**.</​lead>​+<​lead>​Raspberry Pi is a brand of "​single board computers" that can connect using HDMI, is fairly inexpensive,​ and is used by students and hobbyists for various electronics projects.
