  • 10/100 Ethernet Port
  • USB 2.0 (can be used to power the board or as expansion)
  • JTAG and Serial ports for debugging
  • SD memory card support (also supports SDIO)
  • Stereo audio In/Out
  • Expansion connector for customer add-on feature
  • Composite TV Output
  • LCD/DVI Interface
  • Support 720p at 30pfs
  • VGA Camera board (included)
  • Support wide range of video resolutions from VGA, 1.3M, 2M, 3M to 5 Mega-pixel CMOS Sensors (High resolution camera boards available seperately)
  • Royalty-free open source 2A functions

This board has some good expansion features such as camera board.
Also it can be used as an input device for camera, with a beagle board. Basically like a stand-alone camera, with its own video decoder.
