This guide covers the hardware setup, shairport-sync configuration, and how an OpenClaw agent adds intelligent audio routing, volume scheduling, and diagnostic automation on top.

A Raspberry Pi 4 can run both FreePBX (the open-source Asterisk management GUI) and the OpenClaw AI agent gateway, giving you a sub-$100 phone system with AI-powered call handling. This guide covers installing Asterisk and FreePBX on ARM64 Linux, connecting SIP trunks through Twilio or Telnyx, configuring the OpenClaw voice-call plugin for AI-driven conversations, and using Fastio workspaces to store call logs, voicemail transcripts, and telephony config files.

A Raspberry Pi running CUPS can turn any USB printer into a network-shared printer that every device in your house can reach. Adding an OpenClaw agent on top gives you cloud-accessible print queue monitoring, low-ink alerts, and job status notifications over Telegram. This guide walks through both layers, from the initial CUPS installation to a working print monitoring agent.

Raspberry Pi runs a full operating system and handles cloud-connected AI agents like OpenClaw. Arduino excels at real-time sensor control and hardware I/O. This guide compares both boards for AI agent projects and shows how to combine them for the best results.

OpenClaw turns a Raspberry Pi or mini PC into an always-on AI agent gateway, but the two hardware classes make very different tradeoffs. This guide compares the Pi 5 and Intel N100 mini PCs on cost, power draw, Docker compatibility, and long-term reliability for edge agent workloads, and explains where each one actually makes sense.
