Basic VESA mount assembled.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

After a few weeks of using my 50″ television as a display while working on my time-lapse project it quickly became hard to work with. I decided to downsize to a desktop workstation solution. I don’t have much space in my apartment so I needed a compact solution that I could pack up when I’m not using it. A\u00a0small computer monitor with a raspberry pi case would work.\u00a0I found a\u00a0VESA mount raspberry pi<\/a> case that I could use and thought this was a very compact solution to my problem.\u00a0It’s also a very clean way to keep all the gear in a nice tidy package.<\/p>\n

The VESA mount I got came from Adafruit<\/a> who produce a bunch of great products for the raspberry pi and the arduino. You can find the mount here<\/a>. I selected the ViewSonic monitor because it comes with the VESA mount point and a stand. My current Samsung display the stand plugs into the VESA mount which won’t work for my setup.<\/p>\n

My solution for my new compact raspberry pi workstation is the following<\/p>\n
