Not really. In order to get anything done on a Pi you need a high level
OS.
It's a very complex part. If the objective is a low power install, the
display that the Pi runs will nuke your budget big time. You are using a
school bus to haul around one student. Yes it can be done, for an
efficient
design it's not the way to go.

The Raspberry Pi uses about 4 watts, and with Web server output or using
SSH
no display, keyboard or mouse is needed.  It's like walking, no need for
powered transport!

Cheers,
David
