The Itsy Pocket Computer is a small
handheld computer based on the low-power, high-performance
StrongARM SA-1100 microprocessor. Our current prototype runs
at 200MHz on a pair of AAA batteries, and sports a tiny,
high-resolution LCD touchscreen, a high-quality audio codec,
and up to 64MB of memory. Itsy is designed to be an open
platform for research projects ranging from OS power
management to novel gesture and speech-based user
interfaces. The base Itsy hardware provides a flexible
interface for adding a custom daughtercard, enabling a wide
range of hardware projects such as wireless networking and
GPS. Itsy also supports the Linux OS and standard GNU tools,
facilitating the development of both kernel and application
software, as well as ports of existing packages such as
Apache. |
