The TS7200, offered by Technologic Systems, is a StrongARM-based single-board computer. It is, to use a colloquialism, built like a brick outhouse. All the components are soldered on. There are no heatsinks-you can run this board in a closed box with no ventilation. It has a serial port and Ethernet port built on, requiring no external dongles or modules for these connections. It runs on 5 VDC, and requires only .375A, or roughly 2W to operate. In short, this board meets all our requirements. Figure above is the picture of this product.

I have a project to done using this ARM SBC ts7200. The title of this project is EMBEDDED LINUX INSECT DATA COLLECTOR. Actually i didn’t like the title a bit and it suppose to be INSECT RECOGNITION USING TS7200 because my task is to build up a tools to recognize the insect. It a bit difficult for me to start doing this project because i am very new in Linux so i really welcome any idea from the readers what should i do. My achievement for now is i can communicate with the ts7200 board using minicom. In future i would like to interface the board with LCD and Keypad. As i said before i am new in Linux, so i need your suggestion where can i fine a tutorial to work on LCD and Kedpad. I do have a little bit on C programming . After finish this stage, i want to interface the board with webcam. Huh… it kinda difficult for me… so I am looking some great guidance and tutorial from you all. TQ
