ProposalTemplate

{{#ev:youtube|Jl3sUq2WwcY||right|BeagleLogic}}

A short summary of the idea will go here.

Student: [1]
Mentors: [2]
Code: [N/A]
Wiki: http://elinux.org/BeagleBoard/GSoC/MediaIpStreaming
GSoC: [N/A]

Status

This project is currently just a proposal.

Proposal

All requirements have been fullfilled, the Pull Request can be found here #139

About you

IRC: nwan
Github: NiklasWan
School: Kiel University of Applied Sciences
Country: Germany
Primary languages: German, English
Typical work hours: 8AM-5PM CET
Previous GSoC participation: I want to participate at GSoC because I want to gather experience in working within an open source community and try to apply theoretical knowledge into the practical domain. Also I hope to learn new awesome things. This would be my first time participating in GSoC.

About your project

Project name: Media Ip Streaming

Description

The BeagleBone AI is equipped with a high amount of processing power with a Dual Core ARM Cortex-A15 chip as a main computing unit. This makes the AI a perfect fit for highly demanding applications regarding CPU consumption, like audio applications which have extremely strong realtime constraints. A previous GSoC project ported a sound card driver from the BeagleBone Green/Black to the BeagleBoard-X15 (https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/archive/2016/projects/5351212496977920/). This port will now be ported to the BegleBone AI. With the soud card driver successfully ported, the next step would be to port the AVB protocol driver stack from Beagle Bone AVB enabling media streaming over the network. This would allow to use the Beaglebone AI as a media streaming device in professional audio applications and bring audio stream synchronisation features to the Beaglebone AI.

Timeline

Provide a development timeline with a milestone each of the 11 weeks and any pre-work. (A realistic timeline is critical to our selection process.)

Experience and approach

During my bachelor's degree I had several courses like programming in c, programming in c++, operating systems and embedded system programming which layed down the basis for working with developing for hardware. Due to my additional bachelor's degree in audio production I have additional experience in audio applications and audio and media codecs, which will help me to understand the theory behind the different needed algorithms. With my previous development work for the Strämpler project I already have experience in working on complex embedded c projects and which potential pitfalls could occur.

Contingency

If I get stuck and my mentor is not around I will follow the following steps in displayed order:

  1. Search the internet for the problem.
  2. Serach through literature acquired during milestone #1.
  3. Ask in the GSoC IRC, if fellow students know a solution to the specific problem.
  4. If the problem is still not solved, postpone the problem until mentor is available again and work on another part of the project.

Benefit

If successfully completed, what will its impact be on the BeagleBoard.org community? Include quotes from BeagleBoard.org community members who can be found on http://beagleboard.org/discuss and http://bbb.io/gsocchat.
