Built a Raspberry Pi 5 Server Monitor for Power Efficiency and Turned It Into a Video Player
The author built a dedicated, low-power server monitor using a Raspberry Pi 5 to avoid keeping their main PC running 24/7. They consulted AI models like Claude and Codex for hardware and setup guidance. The project involved assembling a Raspberry Pi 5 with a 4.3-inch touchscreen and a 0.96-inch OLED display, which was then programmed to show server status in an "Evangelion-style" interface and function as a video player.
