Dear Cvetolin,
Hello.I am involved in a project where by I have to analyse the output of 60 different sensors in a moving vehecle,
and then transmit the data,the processor needs to have mobile connectivity and GPS.
Please advice on what hardware is needed for this application.
Thanking You
Divyakant.
Hi Divyakant,
As I understand you are in the beginning phase of the project. I suggest you to view the specification of the DM37xx processor family (DM3730/25 or AM3715/03) which seems very suitable for the needs of your project and can be considered as improvement of omap35xx and they are less expensive. Depending on whether you need of 3D accelerator and DSP you can make the right choice about available features, price and performance. There are the product pages :
http://www.ti.com/product/DM3730
http://www.ti.com/product/DM3725
http://www.ti.com/product/am3715
http://www.ti.com/product/am3703
Also if you are not ready with your custom hardware you can start the project using a development board ad DM3730EVM for example.

Dear Cvetolin,
I will introduce myself so that you can get an idea about my electronics knowledge.I am a mechanical engineer with only limited theoritical knowledge of electronics.Hnece I am not in a position to develop a board.
I want to make a product to measure pressure from 50-60 points in a vehicle.and using this data give a useful result.
I want a device that can input this data and make calculations.This device should have GPS and internet connectivity.
Is there such a ready device available with TI.If not what is the process that is involved in making it.
Regards,
Divyakant.
Hi Divyakant,
I offer you a list of TI's Kits & Evaluation Modules (EVMs) for ARM at the link below:
http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/arm/toolsw.page#kem
Many of them are equipped with internet connectivity and have various interfaces as I2C, USB, CAN, UART and GPIOs. The pressure sensors can be connected on some of these interfaces. An external GPS module can be connected.
For more details and pricing contact to the local TI representative.

Hi Tsvetilin,
Thanks for the reply.
Can these evaluation kits also be used for commercial products,in terms of longetivity.

Divyakant.
Hi Divyakant,
These boards are designed for development needs only and it is not recommended to be resell as part of other products but they can be used for models when design your own board.
