    33To address the high cost of FRC training platforms (the lowest cost fully FRC-compatible bot costs at least $1500), team 2537 has started developing a low cost training solution (aka !MiniBot) that allows small, safe, inexpensive robots to be built that are still suitable for robotics training in Java using advanced capabilities such as machine vision and navigation.  This is an ongoing project that is not yet ready for prime time.
    44     * The [https://www.raspberrypi.org/ Raspberry Pi] performs the computing.  It was chosen for its computing power (comparable to or better than a !RoboRIO), popularity, and low cost.  Supported models include:
