SPL Sense for Linux
SPL Sense on a Raspberry Pi: hardware, installation, update and operation as a permanent measuring station.
On Linux, SPL Sense runs without its own window as a web server in the background. You operate it in the browser, on the device itself or from another computer, tablet or phone in the same network. This suits permanent measuring stations, for example a Raspberry Pi in a club or in a rack.
You are basically free in your choice of hardware; an ARM architecture (32 or 64 bit) is required. This guide describes the Raspberry Pi.
