Easier to use, double the memory, Debian based and ready to go from the box WHAT: The community asked and we delivered!

From a hardware viewpoint, there is an increase of on-board storage from 2GB to 4GB, giving customers more room for filling up their board with the fun software … Continue reading Have no fear; BeagleBone Black Rev C is here!
By Tara Stratton If you went to Maker Faire New York this year, you could not have missed the Orbital Rendersphere. This Big Giant Spinning Limb Slicer, as the Hoboken MakerBar team affectionately calls it, displays images and videos on a four-foot diameter spherical surface using persistence of vision (POV) spinning at 450 RPM. It had a constant crowd surrounding it and earned five ribbons at the faire: four Editors Choice ribbons and one Educators Choice ribbon.

Red Bull … Continue reading BeagleBone Black project spotlight: Orbital Rendersphere

In September, the device received great response and an Editors Choice Blue Ribbon from Make Magazine at Maker Faire New York. GrannyCam is a wireless, portable, one-touch videophone … Continue reading BeagleBone Black project spotlight: GrannyCam
