Hello Zain, I'm no help on the coding, but would like to answer your question on resources for learning more about BeagleBone Black. Best place to start is the http://www.beagleboard.org/ getting started link. Plug in your board first to see the tutorials. Both of these books are available via ebook download for low cost: *Bad to the Bone: Crafting Electronic Systems with BeagleBone and BeagleBone Black <http://www.amazon.com/Bad-Bone-Electronics-Beaglebone-Synthesis/dp/1627051376/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1366765502&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=Crafting+Electronic+Systems+with+BeagleBone+and+BeagleBone+Black>* *Getting Started with BeagleBone <http://www.amazon.com/Getting-Started-BeagleBone-Linux-Powered-Electronic/dp/1449345379/ref=la_B00926UN4Q_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1381388374&sr=1-2> * the second book does more with python.
in addition there are online resources from Prof Yoder *MPU Sitara BeagleboardXM: 32-Bit Embedded Linux Course*<http://e2e.ti.com/group/universityprogram/educators/m/teaching_repository/664436.aspx> and Prof Molloy *Derek Molloy's video series on the Beaglebone and programming in embedded Linux <http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLF4A1A7E09E5E260A>* ~Cathy On Monday, November 4, 2013 10:52:48 PM UTC-6, Zain Dar wrote: > > Hello, I'm working on a college project and my task is to develop a > software code for a knee brace, that has 6 accelerometers planted on the > frame (4 Analog Accelerometers and 2 Digital Accelerometers).
