I have a PI 2 on my desk, just waiting on a case for it if people want a look at some point
I was going to order one but element14 were out of stock, and I didn't bother to put through the order. I do intend to get one. I probably could demo one (and the beaglebone black if people like) at a future meeting but will have to rearrange my other Monday commitments to do so.
How about this agenda for the March 23 meeting?
Andrew - Pi2 demo Michael - BeagleBone demo
I have been trying to interface an IMU (inertial measurement unit) to the beaglebone black with the hope of getting a flight controller for multirotor drone running on it. It's currently pretty low-level stuff includying writing kernel code, cross-compiling kernels, and trying to understand and use from user space the IIO (industrial instrument I/O) interface of the kernel. Are people interested in that kind of stuff? Or would people rather a more general spiel on this is what the beaglebone is capable of and here go some applications and how to get started on it? Cheers Michael.
