Meet the Beagles: Open Source Computing Get your hands in technology's guts and control your development destiny with these credit-card sized, low-power, open-hardware computers. Experiment with Debian Linux, Android and more and jump-start development in minutes. Dive into the Beagle community to explore what Beagles can do. What can yours do?

What is BeagleBone® AI? Built on the proven BeagleBoard.org® open source Linux approach, BeagleBone® AI fills the gap between small SBCs and more powerful industrial computers. Based on the Texas Instruments AM5729, developers have access to the powerful SoC with the ease of BeagleBone® Black header and mechanical compatibility. BeagleBone® AI makes it easy to explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can be used in everyday life via the TI C66x digital-signal-processor (DSP) cores and embedded-vision-engine (EVE) cores supported through an optimized TIDL machine learning OpenCL API with pre-installed tools. Focused on everyday automation in industrial, commercial and home applications. Processor: Texas Instruments Sitara AM5729 Dual Arm® Cortex®-A15 microprocessor subsystem
