2022: Repka Pi Performance
The resident Skolkovo"" created a replacement. British computer Raspberry Pi The Skolkovo Foundation announced this on August 10, 2022.
The launch of the production of a domestic small-sized single-board computer is being prepared in October 2022. The Russian version of the product was presented by NPO RainBow Soft together with NPO partner Intellect.
The Repka Pi small single board computer is designed for a wide range of tasks. First of all, as a platform for teaching IT specialties. The computer can also be used for interaction over industrial interfaces with various devices, such as an embedded system for collecting data, controlling, transmitting information. The development has its own operating system with a package of necessary programs. Separately, Repka Pi will be delivered as part of an educational platform with tasks, sensors, a layout board for training and programming.
The Russian manufacturers continue to successfully create popular devices, and this is a very positive trend. This will solve the problem of filling the Russian market with domestic developments while Russia its own production facilities are being formed. In addition to the Repka Pi model, the Skolkovo resident has more serious developments in his line, such as the RBS Computers Allwinner A20, which can be used as a control computer in a number of, industries for example, monitoring and processing systems. data I am sure the company will be able to replace other foreign solutions, said Pavel Krivozubov, head of programs in the field of robotics and artificial intelligence of information technologies of the Skolkovo Foundation.

Development and production is fully carried out at the Russian enterprise, and the computer element base is partially from Russia and China. The dimensions, main interfaces and even appearance are identical to the replaced Raspberry Pi 3. The Repka Pi has 15-20% better performance than the Raspberry Pi 3. It works the same way as an analogue based on processor ARM 64 with four architecture cores, Cortex A53 but unlike its analogue it has a larger amount of RAM and a processor cache.
The idea of the project appeared against the background of sanctions restrictions and coincided with the existing development of solutions for training robotics and programming. The platform allows you to equip educational organizations with a Russian solution and bring to a new level the training of IT specialists. In the future, we are ready to scale production to meet the needs of all of Russia, noted Anatoly Ryabov, head of the NGO "RainBow Soft."
