Raspberry Pi Video Camera, BoneScript on the Beagle
NERP is not exclusively raspberry pi, the small computer interest group atPumping Station:One in Chicago.
We’ve been wondering what it’s like to work with the new Raspberry Pi camera module. Tonight we’re in luck. Craig LeMoyne has a Raspberry Pi project he’ll show us tonight. In his words:
“I have an RPi Model A in my basement running Apache2 and taking pictures
using the new Camera Module every few seconds of a wet area that I *hopefully* managed to patch. It is good fun, and I can also do timelapse video from the pictures. The Pi will even compile the timelapse for me!”
Drew Fustini will introduce us to programming the Beagle Bone Black in BoneScript.
I’ve been saying for years that Javascript would be the next hot language for microcontrollers – maybe it’s true. From beagleboard.org/Support/BoneScript
“BoneScript is a node.js-based language specifically optimized for the Beagle family and featuring familiar Arduino function calls, exported to the browser. Get started exploring the BoneScript Library to discover the great simplicity that is made possible by utilizing Linux in BoneScript.”
