Intel Galileo and Intel Galileo Gen 2: API Features and Arduino Projects for Linux Programmers

摘要

Chapter 6 offers a practical project on tweeting using Intel Galileo boards with new OAuth authentication and without intermediary computers or servers.The project uses a RTC (real-time clock) with external coin batteries and WiFi mPCIe cards.Chapter 7 shows techniques using V42L and OpenCV libraries, as well as how to capture images and videos and detect facial expressions and emotions using a webcam.This chapter also explains how to change the Linux BSD to support eglibc instead uClibc and to generate the toolchain to compile C/C++ programs.There are also examples of OpenCV in Python.Chapter 8 presents a low-cost project to create moisture sensors based in scrap materials and galvanized nails.Chapter 9 shows a practical home automation project implementing a web server using node.js,interacting with multiple sensors for motion and temperature, and using keypads and switch relays.Chapter 10 explains how to install and use PoE (Power of Ethernet) modules with the Intel Galileo Gen 2.Chapter 11 discusses basic principles in robotics and how to design and control a robotic arm using analog controllers.It also presents a practical project using a 6 DOF robotic arm with a mechanical gripper and another one built with ground coffee.Chapter 12 discusses how to connect a XMM 7160 LTE modem and use data channels in real networks using Intel Galileo boards.Chapter 13 is a bonus chapter available online.It presents a practical project on how to design and build a low-cost robot head with animatronic eyes and a mouth that expresses emotions.This chapter is available online at http://www.apress.
