We’re excited to announce that BeagleBoard.org has been accepted as a mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code 2017: Interested students are encouraged to review our 2017 GSoC ideas and begin interacting with our GSoC administrators and mentors on our GSoC mailing list and beagle-gsoc chat. Students can apply starting on March 20th. We are also looking for additional mentors. […]
Jim Kleiner created a minimal FPGA cape for the BeagleBone Black: BBB LX9 FPGA Board Jim describes his design decisions: I decided to try a minimalist hand solderable FPGA board. The LX9 is the largest part available in a TQG-144, beyond that its BGAs One of the key points is that the SPI interface is on BBB […]
Jon Hoffman created a Swift library for interacting with the GPIO, PWM and Analog pins on the BeagleBone Black: Jon used SwiftyBones to develop BuddyBot, the first robot programmed in the Swift: Learn more about Swift in in Jon’s book: Mastering Swift 3 – Linux Learn to build fast and robust applications on the Linux Platform with Swift

This project on Digi-Key aims to make domestic life a bit easier: How to Make a BeagleBone-Based Appliance Notification Texter Once a washer or dryer cycle has started, users have to wait up to an hour for them to finish their cycles. Too often, they forget to check in on the appliances so wet clothes sit […]
