Beaglebone Black Solar Panel
This past year with the beaglebone black as the brain of the boat the team not only completed their most ambitious design.
Beaglebone black solar panel. For ten years the solar boat team from the delft university of technology in netherlands has designed produced tested and raced a boat powered by solar energy. Just like the power cape it has a power supervisor that provides scheduled power up 3 separate operational watchdogs and a rtc function to the beaglebone. When the beaglebone is running it can track voltage and current of the battery solar and system 5v via the ina3221 power monitor. What makes it special.
It was a complicated and costly board to build and has been discontinued. Solar input for 12v solar panel 0 to 26vdc. Am335x 1ghz arm cortex a8 512mb ddr3 ram. I m looking for 4 p5 matrix panels or a beaglebone black rev c.
