Hello everybody, in this video I will talk about the two devices developed by Texas Instruments.
First, I will talk about the TI sensortag and after about the Beaglebone.
The TI sensortag is a device that has a huge variety of sensors. With it you have pressure,
temperature, humidity, accelerometer sensor, just to mention some. The device send the
data from the sensor via Bluetooth low energy technology, thus becoming easy and portable
to use. Due to these advantages, it can be easily used for developing IoT applications.
You can buy this device through the Texas Instruments website, that is www.ti.com. It
costs $25.
Beagloboards are tiny computer with all the capability of today´s machines. However,
they not are so expensive neither do so much noise. You can have SD card slots, USB and
HDMI attached to it. Beagleboards are four different models; they
are the BeagleBoard, the BeagleBoard XM, the Beaglebone and the Beaglebone Black. In this
chart, you can see the specs and the prices of each one. For example, a Beaglebone BLACK
has a processor of 1 GHZ, USB 2.0, HDMI port and 512MB DD3 memory ram and costs only $49.
In this picture, you can see how a Beaglobone black looks like. You can buy Beagle boards from the following website:
