This sounds like a really fun project! Yeah, I'm fairly excited about getting into it. rasp pi cluster could add more computing power for cheaper. Well, I don't have room in the physical case for more Pi's as it stands, and TBH, I'm not terribly interested in running a cluster at home. It might mean spending some money, but I'd rather just do it all in the cloud. One advantage to that is I can easily scale things up and down dynamically, and I can use a mix of CPU and GPU (or even FPGA) instances without having to go out and buy a lot of expensive hardware. Not to say that I would never bring part of it "on prem" and run out of my home, but right now the cloud approach feels more manageable.
