    I think it's kind of odd that no-one mentions Processing 2 language which I just came across by accident. It appears to be what the Arduino IDE is based on and should run on Linaro Ubuntu ARM .. though I haven't tried it yet. It's light weight, easy to understand, and provides instant visual feedback and has some great tutorials. Processing also allows one to communicate with the outside world with the included libraries and has some traction in the Arduino community. It also supports GL. And you can build a program to run on the Android side of the house as well. Doesn't even require an install since it's JAVA based. I'm curious why no-one is discussing it. Seems a really good fit for UDOO iMX6 side. Am I missing something?

    Not sure, i dont see why Processing wouldnt work on the UDOO, i actually planned on using it i have just never got around to setting it up.
    Being what the UDOO is, it makes perfect sense to allow processing to handle output from the SAM3 chip

    I quite look forward to seeing the results of this marriage onto a single device, and i think Processing will be a big part of that.

    Let us know if you try and get it working, and im sure others will step in if there is something preventing it from being put in place.

    Hmm I tried it a couple of days ago, pretty nice tool! but for some reason it wont run on UDOO.. I think it has something to do with Java, but I am no expert on this field :) hopefully somebody else can get it to work!

    @Mozer - I don't think anyone is a UDOO expert yet. :) What sort of error did you get, if any?

    We should have a prize for the 1st person to bring Processing 2 up and running.

    Actually I think that's a great idea for the UDOO team. Shield prizes and other small items for first person to do something unique/cool/effective, perhaps one per month, and thoroughly document/video it for their tutorial section. Moderated first of course.

    I'd just like the updated Jellybean image. ;-)

    Any updates so far? couldn't get processing 2 running myself...
    but i am really looking forward for a reply!
    Found something about processing running on the raspberry here:

    http://cagewebdev.com/index.php/raspber ... our-raspi/

    just giving it a try at the moment! Will let you know if it works!

    Maybe someone else can get v2 running the same way! but we will have to see!

    Regards

    looking forward to this. I just bought the udoo for a project that centers around processing. :|

    Sorry i never connected these threads.
    Here is a more detailed thread on running Processing (or more specifically why we cant get it running today)
