I would like to dedicate this book to my father, Peter Rush,
from whom I inherited the love to make things.

Christopher Rush (Preston, UK) has a degree in computer science and has spent the last 10 years working for CPC, an electronics distribution company. Christopher is a full-time product author and has an extensive knowledge of the electronics hobbyist market. Christopher also runs a makerspace blog, providing tutorials and user guides for popular development boards and accessories, including Raspberry Pi, Arduino, BeagleBone, and others.

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK my family for all their support, and my team at CPC for all their encouragement. Also, I would like to say a special thanks to my close friend Dr. Mark Lochrie, who is always very supportive and inspiring, as well as to my partner Jennifer Wozniak for her patience and motivation while writing this book.

I would like to thank Roger Stewart and the team at McGraw-Hill Education, who have been very patient and supportive and an absolute pleasure to work with. And, finally, thanks to Simon Monkall this would not have been possible without you.

THE BEAGLEBONE BLACK PROVIDES the Evil Genius with a low-cost, easy-to-use solution for creating some Evil projects. The board allows us to create a wide range of projects that can be built and controlled by a single embedded solution. Before too long, you will have captured your enemy and used your sinister Evil techniques to interrogate them. They will be at your mercymwahahahaha!
