8-bit realtime and 32-bit multitasking architectures ain't mixable anyway.
That is some wisdom, right there.
I'm working on an ARM board (http://rascalmicro.com http://rascalmicro.com) that plugs directly into an Arduino. If you're serious about building this system for your greenhouse in the next few months, I'd love to have you as a beta tester. My email is in my profile if you're interested. If not, good luck with the vegetation.
- ph0rque 15y agoApologies if you've answered this elsewhere, but what is the Rascal Micro ballpark price? Is it going to be similar to Raspberry?
- pingswept 15y agoThe Rascal will cost around $150, though I'll lower the price if I can figure out how to do it. I'm a little skeptical of the Raspberry Pi being sold at $25 in reasonably small quantities. But, if they can pull it off, I'll be delighted, because it will mean I probably can too. One of my beta customers has a demo up at http://angerlights.com http://angerlights.com that is pretty amusing and demonstrates the Rascal's basic functions. All the code is on Github too: https://github.com/rascalmicro https://github.com/rascalmicro If you want to try a Rascal in person, and you happen to be in New York, I'll be doing a demo at the Open Hardware Summit in NYC in mid-September.
- wccrawford 15y agoThat sounds really cool. I don't have any projects in the pipeline that could benefit from it, but I'm looking forward to hearing the price of it.
- pingswept 15y agoThanks. See the comment above.
