Hands-on workshop for ECE faculty on Beaglebone Black by Prof. Dr. Mark Yoder from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, USA

Beaglebone Black (BBB) is a fascinating low cost, open source, community supported development platform that let us develop interesting embedded applications with ease. It is powered with Texas Instruments AM3358 32-bit ARM microprocessor and it runs linux, android and couple of other operating systems. It is a tiny computer (tiny in size not in capabilities) that can be used for developing multimedia applications, it can be used for input output programming by connecting external peripherals for building embedded applications. You can use internet on it as it comes with an Ethernet port. You have a USB host and a USB client on it as well.
