About the Author

Jayakarthigeyan Prabakar is an electrical and electronics engineer with more than three years of experience in real-time embedded systems development. He loves building cloud-connected physical computing systems using Arduino, MSP430, Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone Black, Intel Edison, ESP8266 and more.

Jayakarthigeyan started understanding how computing devices and operating systems work when he started repairing his personal computer on his own in middle school that is when he first got his hands on in electronics.

From his third year in the undergraduate degree program, he started building prototypes for various start-ups around the world as a freelancer. Currently, Jayakarthigeyan is a full-time technical lead of the R & D division in a Home Automation startup and works as a consultant to many other companies involved in Robotics, Industrial Automation and other IoT solutions as well; he helps build prototypes to bring their ideas to reality.

Preface

If you are among those who are looking for a simple step-by-step guide to learn basic electronics and start interfacing sensors and actuators with a low-cost Linux development board, such as BeagleBone Black through examples to build internet connected physical computing systems and robots. This book is for you to get started if you have prior knowledge of basic python programming and little understanding of how a computer works.

What this book covers

, Get Started with BeagleBone , tells us about the hardware specification of the BeagleBone board, how to set up a BeagleBone board to boot up with a Linux Operating System on microSD card and log in to the Linux command shell from a remote computer, and how to program on Python software running on the BeagleBone board.

, Circuit Fundaments and GPIO , talks about the working of basic electronic circuits including switches, LEDs, and battery followed by GPIO pins on the BeagleBone board and elaborates on how you can use these GPIO pins to switch LED status using a python program.

, Introduction to Physical Computing Systems , helps you understand the basic structure of physical computing systems with real world examples, build your own physical computing system using a switch as an input and LED as the output device connected to BeagleBone board which works based on the python program that you write.

, Real-Time physical computing systems Using BeagleBone Board , talks about analog sensors using LM35 temperature sensor as an example and works on a more advanced physical computing project using BeagleBone board interfaced with an LM35.

, Connecting Physical Computing Systems to the Internet , teaches you how to connect BeagleBone board to Wi-Fi networks, cloud storage and upload sensor data from BeagleBone board to cloud in real-time, and view the trends on the cloud software with time stamps. Build your first IoT.

, Home Automation Using BeagleBone , tells you about how to set up your own web server on a BeagleBone board using a Python and Flask framework and how to use the same to control home appliances using an AC relay board interfaced with BeagleBone board from a PC or your mobile phone connected to the internet, similar to any other IoT Home Automation system.
