AIelement14 Presents | MAYER MAKES VCP Profile | Project Videos
Scroll down for the Giveaway!
Finally, the BeagleBone AI has been released and Clem is very excited to take it for a spin! He goes beyond his comfort zone and explore PRU (programmable real-time units), OPENCV (Image recognition) and much more on his journey to build an animatronic Terminator inspired skull. It even cites badly impersonated Arnold Schwarzenegger quotes when it detects a human face. This might not be the beginning of Skynet, but it may lead you to build your own AI powered projects!

We had three BeagleBone AIs to give away to get your project rolling, we'll also included one of MayerMakes' Add-On Capes to ensure that you can keep the board cool and running!
