All this is possible because Banana Pi’s advanced technology. Along with advanced projects, the Banana Pi can run many of today’s modern operating systems. With the addition of a touchscreen, or even a regular monitor, the Banana Pi can fly through operating systems such as Android 4.4 KitKat, Ubuntu 13.01 or even a multimedia OS such as XBMC. But, many of the Banana Pi’s features are comparable to other cutting edge singleboard computers.

With all of the single-board computers coming out at Maker’s Fair, at Consumer Electronics Show, and across the Internet, it is hard to find one that will be perfect for any project. The Banana Pi builds on the famous Raspberry Pi, to create a fast, yet inexpensive solution for many electronic projects that need intensive computing. This is all possible because the Banana Pi is an open source. Being one of the first boards to use a dual-core processor, the Banana Pi leads the way into the development of faster and more inexpensive single-board computers. Dual core makes it possible to accomplish many more tasks that the Raspberry Pi cannot. The next generation of singleboard computers is here, and the Banana Pi is leading the way.
