I double dog dare anyone to Linuxcnc this :) https://www.nxp.com/products/processors-and-microcontrollers/applications-processors/i.mx-applications-processors/i.mx-8-processors/i.mx-8-family-arm-cortex-a53-cortex-a72-virtualization-vision-3d-graphics-4k-video:i.MX8
Core Complex #1: 4x Arm® Cortex®-A53 Core Complex #2: 2x Arm® Cortex®-A72 2x Arm Cortex-M4F 1x HIFI4 DSP So like the BeagleBoneBlack (BBB) it has high speed ARM cores for real and non-real time plus 2x micro-controllers for integrated stepping (no FPGA required) and unlike the BBB includes an integrated GPU with open source drivers that can support HD resolutions at >30fps. It also has 2x integrated NIC's for networking and Ethernet controlled servos. 2x PCIe 3.0 (2-lane or 2x 1-lane) 1x FPGA interface (QuadSPI) LPDDR4 or DDR4 and bunch of other IO and A/D, D/A. https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/fact-sheet/IMX8FAMFS.pdf On 05/31/2018 10:54 AM, andy pugh wrote: > Possibly Useful for LinuxCNC, but equally possibly too expensive. > https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/udoo/udoo-bolt-raising-the-maker-world-to-the-next-leve?ref=20ae5a > > I bought one of the original UDOO boards but never got round to doing > much more than building a Xenomai (I think) kernel. > > I think lost interest when I found a USB bridge between the Arduno IO > and the Linux OS.
