**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 04 03:00:02 2018 Mar 04 06:07:18 anyone willing to volunteer as a mentor for the speak and spell project ? Mar 04 06:59:36 jkridner: Can We talk on that project automatic weed remover using beagle and image processing Mar 04 07:00:59 nerdboy:please can you elaborately describe me about the seismometer project Mar 04 07:37:04 hello, I want to implement "BeagleBone synchronous data collection", but have a question about it Mar 04 07:38:24 should I write assembly code for the firmware, to make it possible to perform clock triggered sampling? Mar 04 07:40:03 so I should change the cfg register of the PRU, making EGPIO working in 16-Bit Parallel Capture? Mar 04 07:40:21 is that all about it? Mar 04 07:42:51 hypernome: How do you think the software part of the "weed-remover" project be usefull to the community ? Mar 04 07:49:19 And, how do you plan to implement it so that it remains largely a software project ? Mar 04 08:04:05 why there is two interface for PRU: UIO and remoteproc? Mar 04 08:06:08 hjhee: I'm no expert, but see the last years PRU DMA support project proposal here : https://elinux.org/BeagleBoard/GSoC/BeagleBone_PRU_DMA Mar 04 08:11:09 Sidharth: so remoteproc is newer Mar 04 08:13:28 hjhee: Yeah .. so .. remoteproc is a linux interface. Its not like beagle bone specific. Mar 04 08:13:47 basically .. as the name suggests, its for "REMOte PROCessors" Mar 04 08:13:52 and thats what PRUs are. Mar 04 08:14:35 remoteproc is responsible to boot up and load up the remove processors on a linux based device. Mar 04 08:14:58 an UIO is not ment for remote-processors as per say, but can be used as a wildcard. Mar 04 08:15:40 So, the community had UIO for PRUs in early days. Mar 04 08:15:49 and then TI and the community added remoteproc support for PRUs Mar 04 08:16:02 I see Mar 04 08:21:05 :s/remove processors/remote processors Mar 04 08:21:37 although there have been debates and which is better, UIO vs remoteproc Mar 04 08:21:59 and the both of these interfaces are being used by the community. Mar 04 08:22:32 remoteproc is the standard, right? Mar 04 08:24:05 why not adapt to a standard interface Mar 04 08:35:19 yeah .. it is what people would call " a standard linux way" of doing things. Mar 04 13:03:51 Abhishek_: I've made draft of "BeagleBone synchronous data collection" and would need some opinion from you Mar 04 13:04:17 Abhishek_: https://elinux.org/BeagleBoard/GSoC/SynchronousDataCollectionPRU Mar 04 14:43:54 @Nerdboy can i send you a pm regarding a certain project in the ideas list ? Mar 04 17:36:47 <_stardust_> nerdboy You are listed as a possible mentor for the BeagleSat project. What do you expect from a good proposal? Mar 04 17:56:59 Pac23xyz: that would not have any benefit over simply putting it here Mar 04 18:00:45 hjhee_: To be accureate, the sampling rate needs to be 2wice the bandwidht Mar 04 18:00:47 *bandwidth Mar 04 18:01:04 *accurate Mar 04 18:01:05 ahh .. Mar 04 18:06:52 @zeekhuge the thing is i want to discuss some stuff in detail that's it Mar 04 18:28:21 <_stardust_> The BeagleSat project lists Stephanie Lockwood-Childs as a possible mentor, but her IRC is not listed. Does anyone know what is her user? Mar 04 18:49:28 jkridner, Abhishek_: Fixed tftp transfers from uboot console, you can try it https://github.com/ravikp7/node-beagle-boot/tree/dev Mar 04 18:50:20 <_stardust_> jkridner: I am interested in the Getting Started materials for PocketBeagle project. What do you expect from a good proposal? Mar 04 18:54:44 _stardust_: Stephanie's IRC is StephanieLC . Mar 04 18:55:05 <_stardust_> Thank you, zeekhuge **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Mar 05 03:00:03 2018
