[beagleboard] [Beaglebone] Control of Cameras via UART

What exactly on a digital camera are you trying to control?

I have a hard time imagining what camera you could use via UART, but assuming it can be done, I see no need to use a GPIO to emulate a UART. I would just use one of the several UARTs available on the BeagleBone.

Here’s an idea of the type of camera I’d be using. They’re UART compatible. I’m just curious if anyone has successfully used a beaglebone to communicate with cameras/capture images.

I no of no one that has attempted to connect this “camera” to any BeagleBoard.
