Beaglebone black

[Marmor]

I have an idea but its my secret

Id like to see somthing like port(11) = 1
And a = port(x)
The file idea isnt bad but i need speed !

How fast do you need it and can you do it with Arduino? 

[Marmor]

Hmm

I need around 50 switches per sec.
Minimum 25 (guess)
For all io !

Because i dislike extra multiplexing or extra
Electronic parts.
So 50 Hz and some millisecs for interna.
I know arduino but i will do this with the bbb
Because much other projects.

Gtx

50 switches without multiplexing or parts doesn't seem like a wise choice to me and a reason to use the BBB. What are the switches for?

[Marmor]

ok here is the idea behind :
u need a beaglebone with network and two handys.
both handys are the controller and connectect to over wlan with the bbb.
on the bbb runs tetris ( in this case) .
it plays the sound ,shows the score and the playfield on a 30x30 led matrix.
or create a clock, or a twitter client on the matrix.

got it ?

i dislike the multiplexing and like the easy to understand matrix, because its a project with kids!

Tetris on a matrix? Project with kids?  I think there no need to continue with this pointless discussion regarding the need for GPIO access in GLB. 

[Marmor]

Whats the problem with ? U mean its to hard for the kids ?
Dont think so , they show much interest and understand
Some elektronics .
They  also build some led cubes with the father
So i think its a nice project .
Play tetris on the wall !! I think its great ....
And not pointless.

The projects are cool, and I am keen to make a 3d cube, but I thought we were trying to establish the use for GLB on BBB rather than outline what could be possible on other devices.

Kitty has a bbb ! Ocean sends him a sample
with a "port glb to bbb or ..."
So i think glb comes next to the bbb.
I hope its better as the buggy rpi .
If gpio running out of the box he is my hero!
