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. |
