Course Description
Hello, learners! Greetings from Makerdemy. In this course, you will learn how to program to Build your own Real-time ECG monitor with a BeagleBone Black Wireless board using ECG AD8232 Sensor and Beebotte IoT platform.
This course is for anyone who is interested in exploring the newly released BeagleBoneBlack Wireless. This course is for anyone who is interested in learning about the fundamentals of BeagleBone Black. This course is ideal for those who are interested in exploring the possibilities of BeagleBone. The course does not require any prior knowledge of BeagleBone and Python Programming language.
I will teach you to hook up the Beagle with a keyboard and monitor and use it as a fully functional desktop. I will also teach you how to configure the BeagleBoneBlack board, and you can use it wirelessly. You will learn how to interact with the hardware and build complete BeagleBoneBlack projects using Python programming language.
The course consists series of lessons that will show you how to get up and running on the Beaglebone Black Wireless. An advantage of the Beaglebone Black over the Raspberry Pi is that it has Analog input capability, which the Pi does not. The Beaglebone has a much smaller and less active user community, so it is harder to find examples and information for this platform. So, I will put together a series of lessons that will show you how to use this board in your projects. Our basic approach will be to do programs and control the GPIO pins using Python.
Goals
Wire up your BeagleBoneBlack Wireless to create a fully functional computer, running on the Debian operating system.
Get up to speed with simple Linux commands and the Python programming language.
Write Python code to control the BeagleBoneBlack Wireless hardware.
Build your own Real-time ECG monitor with a BeagleBoneBlack Wireless board using Beebotte.
Prerequisites
BeagleBoneBlack Wireless.
A basic understanding of electricity and electronics.
Essential tools: a mini breadboard, jumper wires, a multimeter, a soldering iron and solder, wire cutter.
A hands-on projects-based approach with step-by-step instructions will be used to teach about the BeagleBoneBlack Wireless and Python programming.
All theories will be explained so you understand all aspects of a project and how/why it works.
Line-by-line code Reviews so you will understand exactly how the software and hardware play together in a project.
LEDs, Push Buttons, Potentiometer.
1 x - BeagleBone Black Wireless, 1 x ECG Module (AD8232), 3 x ECG Electrodes Pad, ECG Electrode Sensor Cable Connector.
