Support for Intel Edison #15

Open vasylnakvasiuk opened 10 years ago

Intel Edison http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/do-it-yourself/edison.html

The Intel Edison module uses a 22-nm Intel® Atom™ SoC, formerly Silvermont, so maybe golang will be compiled very easy on x86. Must, just check Intel Edison + EMBD

kidoman commented 10 years ago

We had tried to get it to work on Galileo. Unfortunately, due to the lack of support of MMX on the Galileo's CPU (which is essentially a 586 equivalent), we did not get much further.

However, if we want this badly enough, we can get this working in Go upstream. It should be relatively easy to get it working with EMBD then.

Galileo works on Quark, Intel Edison instead uses Atom. So, maybe it's not the same issues.

vasylnakvasiuk commented 10 years ago

But, I really see the future of Intel Edison. :)

kunalpowar commented 10 years ago

Edison also uses a 32-bit Intel Quark processor on its Atom SoC. We'll do a test run on it once we get it.

Then definitely worth checking out. If only Intel would sponsor one for us.

I found Intel has Go branch on their devkit. Nothing since the first commit though. https://github.com/intel-iot-devkit/mraa/tree/golang

kidoman commented 9 years ago

We still don't have a device. Trying to see where we can get one sponsored.

Any news on this ?

I've got an Intel Edison (in the form of an Emlid Reach). Can't donate it quite yet but I can code in Go. I'll see what I can do to help.

Well I might be of help, we might have a Skype conference
