Shutting Down a Robot-Mounted Pi

[anthonyttu]

Is there a specific reason you want the Pi to be powered off when the robot is turned off?
I read the rules as you would be allowed to have an additional battery on the robot to power the Pi alone.


According the R31
"Additionally, batteries integral to and part of a COTS computing device or self-contained camera are also permitted (e.g. laptop batteries, GoPro style camera, etc.), provided they’re only used to power the COTS computing device and any peripheral COTS USB input devices connected to the COTS computing device and they are securely fastened to the ROBOT."
