BeagleBone Black : Using Userspace-Arduino libraries#
Summary: The project proposes to build a set of Arduino-like libraries for development on the BeagleBone Black. The libraries will be available inside of the familiar Arduino IDE(along with multiple communication interfaces) or could also be installed as native libraries on the board. The underlying aim of the project is to make development on embedded Linux platforms easier and familiar to the Arduino environment.

Linux ADC IIO Support#
Summary: This project addresses issues in the Beaglebone’s IIO ADC driver, rectifying the absence of /sysfs entries and minor discrepancies in /dev/iio:deviceX entries through patchwork. A new hwmon driver for power measurement utilizing the 7th ADC channel is in development. Reports of touch screen driver conflicts with free ADC channels are being investigated and resolved. The resulting improvements will significantly enhance ADC accessibility for newcomers and userspace application programmers on the Beaglebone platform. Additionally, the PWM driver’s sysfs entry additions will be addressed through a cleaner implementation of sysfs support for the PWM driver API.
