The UDOO is a powerful and innovative Single Board Computer (SBC) that is based on an ARM Quad Core 1GHz processor and the board features 1GB of DDR3 RAM. The design and features of this SBC enable software development and design and the development of projects with a minimum knowledge of hardware. The board is compatible with both Android and Linux operating systems and has an embedded Arduino Due compatible board based on an Atmel SAM3X ARM processor. Having headers that are of the Arduino-compatible R3 1.0 pinout type also means that the UDOO can accept Arduino shields. The UDOO is suitable for the interactive arts with the possibility of developing applications, watching video, playing games, playing music, browsing libraries, etc.
The UDOO is based on an ARM i.MX6 Quad Cortex Freescale processor and features:
Digital audio in/out
FlexCAN (Flexible Controller Area Network) which is switchable between the i.MX6 and the SAM3X8E processors
External SD card support
Dedicated GPUs for 2D and 3D graphics and composition
1GB of DDR3 RAM
76 Fully available GPIO
Arduino compatible R3 1.0 pinout
HDMI and LVDS + Touch
2x MicroUSB
2x USB 2.0 Type A and 1x USB 2.0
Analog audio and mic jacks
CSI camera connection
RJ45 Ethernet
WiFi module
SATA connector with power header
The goals of the UDOO project are to develop a product for the growing applications market by offering a low cost embedded platform, suitable for the interactive arts, that has powerful tools including: Processing, OpenCV, PureData, and OpenFramework. The UDOO mini PC provides a new vision for training a new generation of engineers, designers and applications developers in the digital technology of physical computing, multi-media arts, and interactive arts. Both the applications community and professional developers will also benefit from this great tool for fast prototyping.
