We are excited to announce that we are working with KiwiSDR to bring Software Defined Radio to the BeagleBone.
KiwiSDR is a software-defined radio (SDR) covering shortwave, the longwave & AM broadcast bands, various utility stations, and amateur radio transmissions, world-wide, in the spectrum from 10 kHz to 30 MHz. The KiwiSDR is a custom circuit board (cape) you attach to a BeagleBone Black or Green. Add an antenna, power supply, internet connection, then install the software package and be running in minutes.
An HTML5-capable browser and internet connection will let you listen to a public KiwiSDR anywhere in the world. Up to four people can listen simultaneously to one receiver -- each listener tunes independently.
The KiwiSDR project has launched on kickstarter. Please help us make this happen by backing us!
For more details about the KiwiSDR see the KiwiSDR product page or visit the kickstarter page.
