BeagleBone AI fills the gap between small SBCs and more powerful industrial computers.
Donkey car
The donkey car, a minimally viable autonomous racer, is being built up. It has two wide angle cameras, ultrasonic sensors, wireless network, BeagleBone AI-64, and a measurement unit. It is working with its community to quickly build software so that soon, people will actually be able to drive one of these around.
Digi-Key
Digi-Key plays a huge part in BeagleBoard starting. The very first BeagleBoard was brought to Digi-Key, who bought 10,000 BeagleBoards.
“It’s always been exciting working with BeagleBoard. The first day I had no idea where this idea was going. I bought it and started playing around with it and it has grown ever since,” said Nelson.
