Rosetta Bone: BeagleBone Black RAMPS translator
Posted: Thu Sep 19, 2013 9:33 pm
Saw this on Hackaday: http://www.buildlog.net/blog/2013/09/cn ... eaglebone/
(here's the Hackaday link: http://hackaday.com/2013/09/19/beaglebo ... ore-103331)
This is a rather exciting and stupidly simple method for getting real a CNC interpreter (LinuxCNC) to run our machine without needing newly designed hardware. While the ARM stuff looks promising, the BeagleBone Black has a real-time processing unit. Real-time processing. REAL-TIME!!!
Anyway. I thought some of you guys might like to see this.
