The open source IOIO board now supports the BeagleBone Black for those 
projects needing some extra I/O. For those not familiar with the IOIO, it 
adds extensive I/O capabilities to a variety of platforms, including 
Android, Mac, Windows, and now the BeagleBone. The IOIO connects to the 
host over USB or Bluetooth and exposes a high-level Java API for 
controlling its 46 I/O pins using a variety of hardware interfaces, such as 
digital I/O, analog input, PWM, UART, SPI, I2C, and capacitive sensing. 

Here's an example IOIO project <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GphJJjnksrc>. 
In the video, it's actually a Raspberry Pi but we've confirmed that the 
BeagleBone Black works just the same. The Pi is connected to a IOIO board 
over USB. The Pi is periodically fetching weather data via a Java program 
running on the Pi. The java code is controlling the IOIO which is wired to 
a 32x32 LED matrix.
