Despite having investigated the BeagleBone PRU a while ago, I'm still waiting for a project that will make good use of it.

Nice quiz, for few ques, I had to refer the docs .

Offline cstanton over 3 years ago in reply to Fred27

For yourself to make or that someone else has produced?

Offline Fred27 over 3 years ago in reply to cstanton

I mean that I'm waiting for a project of my own that would benefit from the flexibility of Linux and the real-time accuracy
of a microcontroller or two. I'm surprised one has not come up by now.

Offline umeshdeshmukh2024 over 3 years ago in reply to Fred27

I have some suggestions. You can try implementing communication between application core and PRU using remote
procedure call (eRPC),

That way you can take advantage of both system co-operating and communicating. You can do project which require high
level performance

like image processing on application core and real-time appliation like motor control or PRU one fitting use case is Pick and
Place machine.

The linux distro one is hard

Offline grondak over 3 years ago

I loved the quiz because it helped me remember a bunch of stuff about the bone that I'd forgotten. Like How many boot modes. And
knowing the various products well enough to pick one or the other for an application is cool. Plus knowing the AI has a ton of support
for ML is also cool! Thanks for helping me learn more about the Bone, y'all!

Offline doug65 over 3 years ago

Have not used a beagle bone before, but now that I know a little more about them. Might give it a chance. Thanks for the knowledge.

Offline steve_geo over 3 years ago

Took a few shots, need to brush up on my beaglebone knowledge

Offline albertabeef over 2 years ago

Thank you

I did not know there was a BeagleBone AI ... where have I been ?

Offline dubbie over 2 years ago in reply to albertabeef

Mario,

I find this is true about most things nowadays. Where have I been all my life?
