New Possible platform.

Postby DustySeven » 11 Sep 2014, 14:09

Looks like Intel just released a cool little dev board called the Edison. Thing is a highly impressive little thing runnning a x86 based Atom SoC with 1gb of ram. Price is 50 bucks from Sparkfun. Looks like something that could be used for this awesome project we have here.

Hope you guys like this thing as much as I did.

This is a very interesting card indeed, mostly because there's a solid entity like Intel behind that, so a lot of manufacturers will probably adopt that platform. I'm curious to know how much could a full-build device cost.

It's indeed an interesting module, but with a price for 50 $ plus expansion board plus RAM plus case plus power supply you are not far away from a complete Intel NUC ;)

In the same (x86, intel) world, look at the Minnowboard Max, might fit more our use case.
