The Beagle Board is a low cost single board computer that is ideally suited to prototyping multimedia embedded systems applications. It is based on the Texas Instruments OMAP3530 application processor. The TI OMAP 3530 integrates an ARM Cortex RISC processor and a TI C64++ DSP making it an ideal processor for digital audio and video processing applications. The Beagle Board is supported by eLinux an open source embedded version of Linux.
The BeagleBoard Sponsored Projects Program is a program where selected projects are given a Beagle Board if the project is approved. My project is called Speed Reader and is an application of Timescale Modification of Speech applied to an audio book player. Speed Reader has been submitted to the BeagleBoard Sponsored Projects Program.
