Bad to the Bone: Crafting Electronic Systems with BeagleBone and BeagleBone Black
نویسندگان
چکیده
BeagleBone is a low cost, open hardware, expandable computer first introduced in November 2011 by BeagleBoard.org, a community of developers sponsored by Texas Instruments. Various BeagleBone variants, including the original BeagleBone and the new BeagleBone Black, host a powerful 32–bit, super–scalar ARM Cortex A8 processor operating from 720 MHz to 1 GHz. Yet, BeagleBone is small enough to fit in a small mint tin box. The “Bone” may be used in a wide variety of projects from middle school science fair projects to senior design projects to first prototypes of very complex systems. Novice users may access the power of the Bone through the user–friendly Bonescript environment, a browser–based experience, in MS Windows, the Mac OS X, or the Linux operating systems. Seasoned users may take full advantage of the Bone’s power using the underlying Linux–based operating system, a host of feature extension boards (Capes) and a wide variety of Linux community open source libraries.This book provides an introduction to this powerful computer and has been designed for a wide variety of users including the first time novice through the seasoned embedded system design professional. The book contains background theory on system operation coupled with many well–documented, illustrative examples. Examples for novice users are centered on motivational, fun robot projects while advanced projects follow the theme of assistive technology and image processing applications.

Pratical evaluation of synthesis performance on the beaglebone black
The proliferation and easy access to a new breed of ARMbased single-board computers has promoted an increased usage of these platforms in the creation of self-contained Digital Music Instruments. These directly incorporate all of the necessary processing power for tasks such as sensor signal acquisition, control data processing and audio synthesis. They can also run full Linux operating systems...
متن کاملPreemption-resistant control on a non-real-time operating system
We propose an architecture for implementing discrete-time control algorithms on a non-real-time operating system so that sensing and actuation occur at precise times, even if the OS preempts the control task. The architecture has the controller perform its computation on one processor and its sensing/actuation on a separate microcontroller. The controller sends arrays of future time-stamped act...
