A lot of people put OpenClaw on their computer or VPS. In reality, you can put it on a Raspberry Pi and take it with you anywhere. In fact, Sebastian Völkl managed to do it on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W. He used a WhisPlay board, WM8960 mic/speaker, and PiSugar battery. Just stack it, flash Raspberry Pi OS, enable SSD, install audio drivers, and you are set. You are going to have to rent a droplet to run your OpenClaw.
built my own personal assistent device that runs OpenClaw.
I was curious what the smallest form factor could be that fits in my pocket so I wanted to use the Pi Zero W.
