Improving Embedded Linux Development with BeagleBoard.org
summary
BeagleBoard.org is a nonprofit that ships development-ready Linux boards and on-board toolchains and claims over six million boards sold. Recent hardware: BeagleBone AI‑64 with an 8 TOPS accelerator, dual‑core A72 at 2 GHz, PCIe and USB3, and toolchains for the C7 DSP shipped on the board; Beagle Play is a quad‑A53 board with PRUs, M4, CC1352 sub‑GHz radio and single‑pair ethernet. PRUs power logic‑analyzer/CNC/ultra‑low‑latency audio projects; an open‑source PowerVR GPU stack is upstreaming, but some vendor binary blobs still remain and Beagle 5 RISC‑V was cancelled.
