Re: Control BeagleBone with iPhone, iPad or Android devices

[Yan Luo]

David,

I'm looking for a way to setup connection between BeagleBone and IPHONE device, and glad to find your post here.

Beside control BeagleBone, does the App read information from BeagleBone?

I am really interesting in getting the promotion codes for evaluation?

Thanks

Yan L.

You can create a remote control without programming, just use the online UI-Designer to layout items and add functionality.

I never tried it with a BeagleBone, but it has an Ethernet port and there the app has been used on a lot of different hardware.

A working tutorial for raspberry pi is available on my website (maybe as a starting point?)..

If anyone is interested in trying out the app, I can provide promotioncodes for downloading the app for free (iOS)!

So what should be done? Install or implement a server on the board which accepts socket connections. With a simple

string comparison (if incoming data = "do something" then do_something() ) you can control anything you like.

Hope this will enhance some of your projects ;)

Cheers, David

Why don’t you use Nodejs to create a webserver and then use DojoToolkit widgets to represent I/O from your BBB. You can use Bonescript to interact with the BBB hardware. On the iPhone, simply use Safari to bring up the web page from your BBB.

Hi Yan,

yes you can also read and display the information in the NetIO App. there are also some formatting options to enhance the responses from the hardware.. the next version will also support calculations in case you read raw sensor data that needs to be mapped to for example a temperature value.
