Sitara ARM processors and the Guinness Book of World Records

Thu, 12 Jul 2012 00:00:00 -0500

Mischo Erban recently broke the Guinness World record for "fastest skateboard speed from a standing position" by clocking in at 80.74 mph. What's the connection to Sitara ARM processors? Using a camera-equipped Recon helmet he was able to record the whole thing, plus he was able to see his speed with the heads-up display mounted inside the helmet. The helmet's capability was designed with the TI Sitara ARM AM37x processor. If the Sitara processor can play a role in breaking a world record - just think what it can do for you!

Whitepaper: Using BeagleBone to simplify open-source development

Thu, 21 Jun 2012 00:00:00 -0500

The rapid advancement of open-source software has increased the need for open-source hardware. Open-source hardware platforms, such as those offered by BeagleBoard.org, give developers and hobbyists the robust open-source resources they need to deliver new products to the marketplace quickly and, at the same time, reduce their risks. As a flexible and extensible open hardware development platform, BeagleBone from BeagleBoard.org can effectively facilitate a development team's transition into the open-source world. This whitepaper provides an overview of this hardware platform and using it within an open-source development environment.

Video: Exploring benefits of hardware accelerated cryptography

Thu, 14 Jun 2012 00:00:00 -0500

How do you deploy the level of security needed to reassure users without slowing down your device to the point where the user experience is affected? Accelerating cryptographic processing in hardware instead of performing these algorithms entirely in software ensures that security measures do not get in the way of an engaging and satisfying user experience. See how TI is solving this issue in its Sitara ARM processor family.
