Let BeagleBone Black Give Your Old Games an Extra Life!

Introduction to 3D printing with BeagleBone Black

Uncategorized

by Jason Kridner Over on the TI Tools Insider Blog, Alejandro Erives has been talking about self-replicating machines and Stephanie Pearson day-dreamed about giving a Beagle a 3D printer and the impact on open source hardware. This prompts the question, how do you get started and where can you end up? Here’s the quick overview […]

BeagleBoard.org collaborates in creation of new Arduino TRE

Uncategorized

Two open hardware pioneers have combined forces to bring the famously easy-to-use experience of Arduino to a high-performance ARM®-based Linux computer and prototyping platform derived from the open hardware designs of BeagleBoard.org and Arduino Leonardo. As an open hardware project, BeagleBoard.org’s collaboration with Arduino helps to advance accessible technology for artists, designers, hobbyists and anyone […]

Quick list of BeagleBone projects I saw at World Maker Faire in New York

Uncategorized

There wasn’t enough time to really discover all of the BeagleBone Black projects at World Maker Faire in New York. I did post some quick pictures on Google+, but I barely had time to breathe at the Faire!

BeagleBone Black wins 2013 Top Embedded Innovator award

Uncategorized

Embedded Computing Design magazine recently announced its 2013 Top Embedded Innovator awards. BeagleBone Black was announced as a winner in the Top Products Silicon category. Hardly surprising, given the waves BeagleBoard.org has been making in the embedded industry for the last five years. The August 2013 issue, in addition to announcing the award winners, includes […]

Weekend at Boris’

Uncategorized

It has been a busy week for BeagleBoard.org, which has now been around for five years! Drew Fustini of Element14 was nice enough to bring cake to the Southeast Michigan Friends of Boris (the Beagle) meet-up. A notable point of discussion was the fact that BeagleBoard.org got its name from Gerald’s dog Jake, but yet […]

New home for BeagleBoard.org blog

Uncategorized

I’ve moved this blog to http://beagleboard.org/blog/staging. It just seems like an easier place to find it. I’m also going to try to start being more consistent with at-least-weekly posts.

BeagleBoard.org celebrates 5 years of enabling Linux DIY hacks

Uncategorized

BeagleBoard.org launched with support of Digi-Key in 2008 and DIYers quickly adopted BeagleBoard for migrating XBMC to ARM, building GPS accurate down to the centimeter, eight-legged robots and creating controller hacks. In 2010, Google Summer of Code students contributed numerous projects to help other open source developers, including sniffing USB traffic and XBMC performance optimizations. GSoC students are back at it again in 2013, providing solutions for booting BeagleBone from aNexus phone, […]

BeagleBoard.org GSoC 2013 update

Uncategorized

In the last blog post, the students and mentors were introduced and links were given to the projects.  The Minix I2C project shared a video for the last post and has progressed as far as pushing initial I2C support into the Minix mainline. A couple of the other students have now provided some videos describing […]
