UnArmed to the teeth: Early versions to ship in April, more to follow in September Katyanna Quach Thu 14 Jan 2021 // 08:06 UTC Share Copy If you’re looking for a modest RISC-V computer capable of running Linux, with AI and other acceleration thrown in, to evaluate the architecture, the people behind the BeagleBoard have teased such a thing: the BeagleV board, starting from $119 (£87). The single-board computer is the creation of three organizations: chip designer StarFive, Internet-of-Things hardware biz Seeed, and BeagleBoard.org – which is best known for producing affordable Arm-based dev kits, and is now giving RISC-V a shot. StarFive, meanwhile, is linked to SiFive, the RISC-V chip-and-board outfit.
