Bad to the Bone : crafting electronic systems with BeagleBone Black /

Bad to the Bone : crafting electronic systems with BeagleBone Black / Steven Barrett, Jason Kridner.

BeagleBone Black is a low-cost, open hardware computer uniquely suited to interact with sensors and actuators directly and over the Web. Introduced in April 2013 by BeagleBoard.org, a community of developers first established in early 2008, BeagleBone Black is used frequently to build vision-enabled...
