Executive Summary
For this project we want to further improve documentation available for SPI with the Beagle Bone. In the process of our information gathering we will connect two different product that use SPI, one being an SPI radio interface and the other being a SPI LED strand.
So far there exists documentation for the BeagleBoard/SPI. There also exists other documentation regarding the SPI specifications.
The documentation is lacking for the current Beagle Bone platform interfacing with SPI. Additionally there exists virtually no documentation for using a Beagle device with the LPD8806 LED controller.
In conclusion this project should help the Beagle community in general with information sharing and usable research.
Installation Instructions
The kernel driver for SPI is installed in the latest version of the beagle bone.
We have integrated some code to work with a SPI radio device. The code is located at github.
To get started hook up pins 19 and 21 to SPI Master and SPI clock.
User Instructions
Once everything is installed, how do you use the program? Give details here, so if you have a long user manual, link to it here.
Highlights
Here is where you brag about what your project can do.
Include a YouTube demo.
Theory of Operation
Give a high level overview of the structure of your software. Are you using GStreamer? Show a diagram of the pipeline. Are you running multiple tasks? Show what they do and how they interact.
Work Breakdown
List the major tasks in your project and who did what.
Also list here what doesn't work yet and when you think it will be finished and who is finishing it.
Future Work
Suggest addition things that could be done with this project.
Conclusions
Give some concluding thoughts about the project. Suggest some future additions that could make it even more interesting.
