I have a question that I need to implement blockchain for tamper proof record so what laptop specifications would be required to implement blockchain?
If u can run python or js u can make it so some dual-core laptop and u can also work on Linux without a GUI so old Pentium 3 will also work :D

Currently i am running a Raspberry PI and STM32 in a project and i was looking into the MP1 to replace it with. As its an easier setup.
I am running a node.js application on the raspberry and I am trying to get that application to run on the MP1. I have tried to follow the tutorials from stm32 but doesnt help that much. Has anyone done anything like this? I know the microcontroller is new as it has been released in Oktober.
I know its a broad question. But anything helps as i cant find a lot about it.
Thanks
If you run an embedded OS like Embedded Linux or RTOS on the ARM you can run node.js and see https://elinux.org/images/1/14/Karagoz-nodejs-presentation_0.pdfhttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/44753321/is-it-possible-to-run-node-js-on-an-rtos. On a completely bare metal machine it may also be possible however this is very effortful to implement a JavaScript runtime like it was done for the ESP32-WROVER module (https://www.neonious.com/lowjs/)
You can implement websockets also in C/C++ that can run on bare metal ARM see https://github.com/zaphoyd/websocketpp
I have Dji Phantom 4 and I need to track object using it so can I give instructions to it using onboard sdk as its only for Matrice 100 and if not is there any other way to five it instructions using ROS or with linux operating system.
With a Phantom 4, you can't use the OnboardSDK.
To achieve what you want your best chance is the MobileSDK.
It's available on iOS and Android though.
With it, you can get the video feed of the camera and do the tracking you want, convert it into virtual stick commands and have the drone track visually the subject you want.
Hope this helps.
I have a device that has an ARM processor and runs Win CE OS.
Now I have got a requirement to implement a node js server inside the device.
The same requirement was implemented on another ARM device that was running Linux
Since node is compiled for Linux they were able to run a node js server inside the device.
But there is no Win CE compatible version of node available
Is that not done yet or am i missing something?
I read about Microsoft chakracore, but I didnot understand much.
Does anybody know how to run node on Win CE running devices.
Any kind of leads/help is appreciated. Thanks
Windows CE provides an implementation of the Win32 API that is someway compatible with the full-Win32 version implemented on Windows desktop operating systems.
It also provides C/C++ libraries but, as you know, evil is in the details and those implementations can be considered a subset of those you have on the desktop and missing a single function or feature can force you to re-implement a huge amount of code to work around the limitation.
Windows CE is also meant to run on resource-limited devices with a limited amount of RAM and processing power and, honestly, node.js does not seem to exactly target this kind of platforms.
First I would like to understand if the requirement makes sense and why there is a need to mix a small real-time OS like CE with a huge interpreted and resource-hungry monster like nodejs.
windows CE has not been updated in over 3 years it is unreasonable to expect node.js to work as is on top of CE. windows on arm however (used by windows phone, windows Iot, and the ill fated surface RT) can run this https://github.com/nodejs/node-chakracore. Windows on arm only accepts thumb2 instructions, so you won't be able to use regular node.js.
This is b\c v8 just in time compiler does not produce thumb2 instructions. more reading material here: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ntdebugging/2014/05/15/understanding-arm-assembly-part-2/
This may be a foolish question but I've been searching around for some time and don't see a clear answer. I've seen several microcontrollers advertised as running Unix-like software (Linux, Ubuntu) for example, the BeagleBone Black and Arduino Yun. Can someone please explain to me the benefit of this? So far I've used a couple of microcontrollers like the Arduino Uno/Duo, Freescale FRDM and STM32 Discovery which either didn't have this feature or I was not aware of it. I'm starting to see it more and more on newer microcontrollers so I'd like to know what it brings to the table.
Full disclosure: I've had minimal exposure to UNIX and its variants so far so please talk slowly and use small words =)
Hope to hear from you,

You get complex drivers already included Linux for free (USB, internet protocols, storage media and file systems).
You can use lots of free software for the things not included in the kernel.
It is simpler to develop software on a full OS (easier to debug, look what is going on, change the configuration, etc etc).
The drawback is that the real-time capabilities are generally worse than for some small RTOS, and it needs more resources (a couple of megabytes memory).
In the heart of all Android and iphone is a Embedded Linux System. Without getting too deep
Linux + Java = Android
BSD Unix variant + C/C++/Object C = iOS
Now if you get deeper the above two statement can be argued for accuracy
All Android devices run on ARM based microprocessors. Beaglebone is one such open source hardware platform with can run Android as well as Embedded Linux distribution and even a Ubuntu.
Now (IMHO) Ubuntu is primarily for desktop and server application. Many of the popular computer server farms uses Ubuntu.
Now STM32 is a ARM based CORTEX-M micro control. Once again (IMHO) is mostly used for bare metal embedded applications. I have hard that FreeRTOS can be ported to TM4C123 ARM Cortex-M TM4C123.
Now the advantages of using Linux base micro controller architecture are
OS is free for the most part
Larger community of users
The industry is moving towards open source
Lot of free resources get up to speed
Disadvantage are
Learning curve is pretty steep
Expect to stumble and fall a few time
Below to two good resources to learn Beaglebone open source development

I am trying to port debian linux distribution on leopord dm36X.
Have anyone ported it already? If yes please provide pointers from where to start..
Seems that kernel is ported to dm365, there is also BSP for leopard made dm355 based board and evaluation board for dm365 from TI - these all might be relevant depending on how different dm368 is.
I guess this is the starting point, i would also check TI's developers discussion boards for any announcements.
