Eagleye 530s

enter image description here

Seeed is an experienced designer of development kits for IoT technology platforms. Our latest development kit—the Eagleye 530s,--is designed to help you get started developing products and services for the Samsung ARTIK™ IoT platform.

The Eagleye 530s is a high-performance, pre-tested, cost-effective and production-ready development kit which incorporates the Samsung ARTIK™ 530s--a 1GB system-on-module (SoM)-- on a custom credit card size board. For more information about ARTIK™ 530s, please click here.

What is Samsung ARTIK™? Samsung ARTIK™ is a pre-integrated IoT platform consisting of enterprise-grade system-on-modules (SoMs), cloud services, and end-to-end security for the design and development of robust IoT solutions. Developers frequently downplay the importance of security when designing and building IoT products. ARTIK integrated security services for SoMs and cloud make it easier for you to make your products secure.

As mentioned above, the Eagleye530s is based on the ARTIK 530s 1GB SoM, which is a Quad Core Cortex® A9 running @ 1.2 GHz with 4 B Flash memory, hardware-based security features, and Linux OS (Ubuntu). The Eagleye 530s also provides a 40 pin GPIO and accessory interface for Micro SD, Ethernet 10/100/1000, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth BLE 4.2 802.15.4, and ZigBee/Thread. It also supports full HDMI, MIPI camera interfaces, video, and audio media.

Since the Eagleye 530s is pin-compatible with many “maker” hardware accessories, it allows Samsung ARTIK™ developers to easily tap into the extensive “maker” accessories marketplace and prototype and build with off-the-shelf sensors (eg. GrovePi+,Grove sensors), voice recognition (eg. ReSpeaker 2-mic array and ReSpeaker 4-mic array), relays, GPS, cellular connectivity, and more, providing many options for enterprise developers creating feature-rich proof-of-concepts (PoC) or production-ready products.

  • Step 7. We will see below message and the firmware is downloaded successfuly.

  • Step 8. Please shutdown the board, remove SD card and switch boot switch Pin4 back to off.

Play with Pin Programming​

Eagleye boards provide many programmable signal pins. Some of these are General-Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins, while others are fixed-purpose pins for analog input, pulse-width-modulated output, and serialized communication.

  • Digital Input (GPIO) – sensing a DC signal level at low (GND) or high (Vcc)

  • Digital Output (GPIO) – driving a DC level (GND or Vcc) that can be controlled dynamically

  • Waveform Output (PWM) – switching DC levels by a Pulse Width Modulation circuit with frequency and duty cycle that can be programmed dynamically.

  • Serial Ports (I2C and UART) – sending and receiving data according to industry-standard protocols.

  • Analog Input (ADC) – reading a varying signal level and processing through an analog-to-digital converter

    The sysfs functionality of the Linux kernel provides libraries to control and monitor programmable pins. Details are available at the reference.

Here is pinout of the connectors with its meaning.

GPIO Control through Sysfs

For example, pin 11 is GPIO and can be used as digital input or output. To use a particular GPIO, we would first set its direction (mode) as either input or output, and then read from or write to it as needed.

The Play with onboard LEDs and Play with onboard buttons tutorials provided examples of the necessary programming for digital I/O pins.

警告

Please change the specific GPIO pin number in the led/button python program.

PWM Control through Sysfs

For example, pin 22 is PWM. We can connect PWM of LED to PWM of 40 Pins and GND as well. We can set period and duty_cycle（Maximum limit is 1,000,000,000 (expressed in ns).) Duty_cycle should always be less than period.

The following exercise demonstrates use of a PWM pin, setting a fixed blink rate.

  • Step 1. Export PWM0

    echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export

A pwm0 subdirectory is created. (We can use echo 0 to create pwm0, echo 2 to create pwm2.)

  • Step 2. Set attributes

    • a) Set period (Unit: ns) to 1 sec

      echo 1000000000 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/period

    • b) Set duty_cycle (Unit: ns) to 500 msec

      echo 500000000 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/duty_cycle

    • c) Enable PWM0

      echo 1 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/enable

    • d) Disable PWM0

      echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/enable

  • Step 3. Unexport PWM0

    echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/unexport

Here is the terminal information for pwm0.

[root@artik pwmchip0]# echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export    # please change to echo 2 for pwm2
[root@artik pwmchip0]# echo 1000000000 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/period # please change to pwm2 from pwm0 for pwm2
[root@artik pwmchip0]# echo 500000000 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/duty_cycle # please change to pwm2 from pwm0 for pwm2
[root@artik pwmchip0]# echo 1 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/enable  # please change to pwm2 from pwm0 for pwm2
[root@artik pwmchip0]# echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/pwm0/enable # please change to pwm2 from pwm0 for pwm2

ADC Control through Sysfs

For example, pin 36 is ADC0. The following command line examples demonstrate how to read the current value of ADC0.

[root@artik dev]# cat /sys/devices/platform/c0000000.soc/c0053000.adc/iio:device0/in_voltage0_raw
0
[root@artik dev]# cat /sys/devices/platform/c0000000.soc/c0053000.adc/iio:device0/in_voltage0_raw

备注

Please change the in_voltage0_raw to in_voltage1_raw if we use pin37 (ADC1).

UART Control

cd /sys/kernel/config/device-tree/overlays/
mkdir ttyAMA4
cd /boot/overlays
cat s5p4418-artik533-compy-serial4.dtbo  > /sys/kernel/config/device-tree/overlays/ttyAMA4/dtbo
cd /dev
ls tty*
  • Step 2. Connect the UART0 TX/RX to USB2Serial adaptor.
Pin NumberPin NameUSB2Serial Adaptor
6GNDGND
8XUART0_TXRX
10XUART0_RXTX
  • Step 3. Send "hello" to UART0
stty -F /dev/ttyAMA4 
echo “hello ..” > /dev/ttyAMA4
  • Step 4. We can see the serial monitor as below.
hello ..
hello ..
hello ..

Capture Audio

  • Start recording using the Command Line
arecord -Dac108 -f S16_LE -r 48000  -c 4 /tmp/test.wav

  • Start recording using Python

    • Step 1. Install pyaudio package by below commands

      apt install python-pyaudio

    • Step 2. Use a text editor like vi to create this recorder_4Mics.py code file, which records a 10-sec audio clip called test.wav.

import pyaudio
import wave

FORMAT = pyaudio.paInt16
CHANNELS = 4
RATE = 48000
CHUNK = 1024
RECORD_SECONDS = 10
WAVE_OUTPUT_FILENAME = "test.wav"

audio = pyaudio.PyAudio()

# start Recording
stream = audio.open(format=FORMAT, channels=CHANNELS, rate=RATE, input=True, frames_per_buffer=CHUNK)
print "recording audio..."
frames = []

threshold = 800
for i in range(0, int(RATE / CHUNK * RECORD_SECONDS)):
   data = stream.read(CHUNK)
   frames.append(data)
print "done recording"

# stop Recording
stream.stop_stream()
stream.close()
audio.terminate()

Capture Audio

  • Start recording using the Command Line
arecord -D plughw:1,0 -f cd test.wav # record, please use the arecord -l to check the card and hardware first
aplay -D plughw:1,0 -f cd test.wav # play, please use the aplay -l to check the card and hardware first
arecord -D plughw:1,0 -f cd |aplay -D plughw:1,0 -f cd # record and play at the same time

  • Start recording using Python

    • Step 1, We need to run the following script to get the device index number of Mic Array:

      apt install python-pip
      pip install pyaudio
      cd ~
      nano get_index.py

    • Step 2, copy below code and paste on get_index.py.

import pyaudio

p = pyaudio.PyAudio()
info = p.get_host_api_info_by_index(0)
numdevices = info.get('deviceCount')

for i in range(0, numdevices):
        if (p.get_device_info_by_host_api_device_index(0, i).get('maxInputChannels')) > 0:
            print "Input Device id ", i, " - ", p.get_device_info_by_host_api_device_index(0, i).get('name')

  • Step 3, press Ctrl + X to exit and press Y to save.

  • Step 4, run 'sudo python get_index.py' and we will see the device ID as below.

Input Device id  0  -  Artik530 raptor Audio: - (hw:0,0)
Input Device id  2  -  ReSpeaker 4 Mic Array (UAC1.0): USB Audio (hw:1,0)
Input Device id  3  -  sysdefault
Input Device id  4  -  pulse
Input Device id  8  -  default
  • Step 5, change RESPEAKER_INDEX = 2 to index number. Run python script record.py to record a speech.
import pyaudio
import wave

RESPEAKER_RATE = 16000
RESPEAKER_CHANNELS = 1 # change base on firmwares, default_firmware.bin as 1 or i6_firmware.bin as 6
RESPEAKER_WIDTH = 2
# run getDeviceInfo.py to get index
RESPEAKER_INDEX = 2  # refer to input device id
CHUNK = 1024
RECORD_SECONDS = 5
WAVE_OUTPUT_FILENAME = "output.wav"

p = pyaudio.PyAudio()

stream = p.open(
            rate=RESPEAKER_RATE,
            format=p.get_format_from_width(RESPEAKER_WIDTH),
            channels=RESPEAKER_CHANNELS,
            input=True,
            input_device_index=RESPEAKER_INDEX,)

print("* recording")

frames = []

for i in range(0, int(RESPEAKER_RATE / CHUNK * RECORD_SECONDS)):
    data = stream.read(CHUNK)
    frames.append(data)

print("* done recording")

stream.stop_stream()
stream.close()
p.terminate()

wf = wave.open(WAVE_OUTPUT_FILENAME, 'wb')
wf.setnchannels(RESPEAKER_CHANNELS)
wf.setsampwidth(p.get_sample_size(p.get_format_from_width(RESPEAKER_WIDTH)))
wf.setframerate(RESPEAKER_RATE)
wf.writeframes(b''.join(frames))
wf.close()

 else
  strcpy(smbus_name, "/dev/i2c-0");
  strcpy(smbus_name, "/dev/i2c-1"); //add this line to enable the I2C for eagleye_530s
}
  • Step 3. Modify the source code /root/GrovePi/Software/Python/grovepi.py and comment as shown.
if sys.platform == 'uwp':
 import winrt_smbus as smbus
 bus = smbus.SMBus(1)
else:

Please run Step 4 commands after rebooting.
  • Step 5. Please attach the Grove-Led and Grove-Rotary Angle Sensor to GrovePi as below.

  • Step 6. Run python grove_rotary_angle_sensor.py.
cd ~/GrovePi/Software/Python/
python grove_rotary_angle_sensor.py

Here is the code.

import time
import grovepi

# Connect the Grove Rotary Angle Sensor to analog port A0
# SIG,NC,VCC,GND
potentiometer = 0

# Connect the LED to digital port D5
# SIG,NC,VCC,GND
led = 5

grovepi.pinMode(potentiometer,"INPUT")
grovepi.pinMode(led,"OUTPUT")
time.sleep(1)

# Reference voltage of ADC is 5v
adc_ref = 5

# Vcc of the grove interface is normally 5v
grove_vcc = 5

# Full value of the rotary angle is 300 degrees, as per it's specs (0 to 300)
full_angle = 300

while True:
    try:
        # Read sensor value from potentiometer
        sensor_value = grovepi.analogRead(potentiometer)

        # Calculate voltage
        voltage = round((float)(sensor_value) * adc_ref / 1023, 2)

        # Calculate rotation in degrees (0 to 300)
        degrees = round((voltage * full_angle) / grove_vcc, 2)

        # Calculate LED brightess (0 to 255) from degrees (0 to 300)
        brightness = int(degrees / full_angle * 255)

        # Give PWM output to LED
        grovepi.analogWrite(led,brightness)

        print("sensor_value = %d voltage = %.2f degrees = %.1f brightness = %d" %(sensor_value, voltage, degrees, brightness))
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        grovepi.analogWrite(led,0)
        break
    except IOError:
        print ("Error")

  • Step 7. The Led will change the brightness while the rotary angle sensor is rotating. We also see the terminal information as below.
[root@artik Python]# python grove_rotary_angle_sensor.py
sensor_value = 246 voltage = 1.20 degrees = 72.0 brightness = 61
sensor_value = 247 voltage = 1.21 degrees = 72.6 brightness = 61
sensor_value = 258 voltage = 1.26 degrees = 75.6 brightness = 64
sensor_value = 274 voltage = 1.34 degrees = 80.4 brightness = 68
sensor_value = 296 voltage = 1.45 degrees = 87.0 brightness = 73
sensor_value = 318 voltage = 1.55 degrees = 93.0 brightness = 79
sensor_value = 340 voltage = 1.66 degrees = 99.6 brightness = 84
sensor_value = 363 voltage = 1.77 degrees = 106.2 brightness = 90
sensor_value = 387 voltage = 1.89 degrees = 113.4 brightness = 96
