##Install Raspbian Operating System
- Download Raspbian Stretch from [http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/images/raspbian-2018-11-15/]
ThinkBioT is using Stretch as the Coral Edgetpu models are currently only tested up to version 1.13 of
TensorFlow,which was not tested on Debian Buster. - Ensure your SD card is formatted as Fat32 as per [https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/sdxc_formatting.md]
- Follow the tutorial at https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/README.md to complete your installtion of Debian Stretch. We have selected the full version of Stretch )as
opposed to the 'Lite' version as the initial wireless connection is easier to setup with a graphical iterface. The additional features are disabled by ThinkBiot scripts when the device is in field mode so the GUI will not require a greater power
overhead in the field.
##Connect to the Raspberry Pi To set up the software/hardware and access your data locally a connection will be required.
- During installation you should have been prompted to connect to your wifi network if not connect now.
- Follow instrctions as per https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ssh/
