Preface

Welcome to BeagleBone Cookbook. You are about to cook up some treats with this puppy.BeagleBone Black has put a full-featured web server, Linux desktop, and electronicshub in hundreds of thousands of users hands, and this book will help you get the most out of it.

Who This Book Is For

This book is intended for users who are either new to BeagleBone Black or are lookingto quickly discover some of the many capabilities it provides. Only minimal familiarity withcomputer programming and electronics is required, because each recipe includes clear and simple wiringdiagrams and example code that you can use as a starting point for buildingexperience. Along the way, youll also find launching-off points to join the large andgrowing BeagleBoard.org community, to further your knowledge and give you a chance to show off what youve learned.

Knowledge of Linux (the operating system kernel upon which the recipes in this book run) is not required. Only a small number of recipes depend on using Linux directly, and well try to provide enough background to make you ready to tackle those by the time you get there.

If you dont know what BeagleBone Black is, you might decide to go get one afterscanning a few of the recipes. BeagleBone Black is a computer the size of a credit card,yet it is capable of running full desktop applications, such as word processors and webbrowsers. Unlike other small single-board computers, BeagleBone Black excels atconnecting the world of electronics to the world of the Web. The board comes preloadedwith a Linux distribution that serves up a web-based integrated development environment (IDE) and all the tools you need to begin creating your own projects without downloading anything or working with tools in the cloud. Your Boneserves you a programmable cloud all on its own, offering endless possibilities in a variety of fields, including medical, automotive, gaming, software-defined radio, robotics, drones, the Internet of Things (IoT), tools for citizen scientists, and many more. Whatever you develop with the Bone, you have full control of itand the data you choose to share.

This book is also for individuals who care about the future and understanding itsdirection. With more and more connected technology entering our lives, it isimportant for us all to have a basic level of understanding of what is possible.Unlike some other small and affordable single-board computers, BeagleBone Black is open hardware.Being a true open-hardware computer, all of the materials for building your own version of the board are freelyavailable on the Web. The design is built on components just about anyone can buy anywhere in theworld. Thanks to the open-hardware nature of BeagleBone Black, you can go from the kindergarten of learning about computers and electronics to kickstarting your own business.

: Displays and Other Outputs
This chapter shows ways to wire up and control displays andother output devices, such as single LEDs, strings of LEDs, LED matrices, LCD displays and external 120 V devices. Motors are saved for. Well also show you how to make your Bone speak (speech sythesis)
: Motors
In this chapter, youll learn how to wire up and drive motors of various types,including servo motors that drive to a fixed position, stepper motors thatrotate in precise angles, and DC motors that spin quickly. Youllbe building mobile robots, 3D printers, CNC mills, and more before you knowit. provides additional coverage of motors, butyoull want to use this chapter first to build up your understanding of motors andhow to drive them electrically.
: Beyond the Basics
This chapter offers some additional approaches to solving common challenges a more advanced user might expect or need to know. Youll find coverage of alternative programming languages, environments, and interfaces that many people have found helpful. Fine-tune your Bone and approach to programming it with these tips and tricks.
: Internet of Things
After following the recipes in the first chapters, you have mastered connecting things to your Bone. This chapter provides recipes for connecting those things to the Internet for visualizing, controlling remotely, and sharing socially whatever you might desire.
: The Kernel
