Computer is a stretch. It's usually called a microcontroller or system on a chip. It works off 1.8V input voltage and so will run off a USB supply. Raspberry pi which is a computer is called System on a board.

People call the control system of the Saturn V a computer when it is less powerful and capable by any measure you choose to compare. I'm really just calling it a computer though because a lot of people don't know what the word microcontroller means (this isn't a tech specific community)
