Every application is steadily mobile-enabled to enable distributed applications that can be accessed and used at vehicular speed. Mobile interfacing becoming needs mandated widely. Several mobile technologies and tools are facilitating the leverage of all kinds of application while on the move. With the explosion of smartphones, cloud-based enterprise-grade, customer-facing, and web-scale applications are being provided with mobile interfacing – several popular operating systems such as Android, iOS, KaiOS, etc., powering up smartphones. Raspbian is the operating system (OS) overwhelmingly used in Raspberry Pi single-board computers (SBCs). Similarly, there are other Linux-derived OS solutions for various IoT devices. Cloud connectivity is essential not only for handhelds, portables, mobiles, etc., but also for all kinds of newer input/output devices to be highly relevant to their users.

SBC is a small portable motherboard having all the functionalities of motherboard like microprocessor, input/output devices, memory unit all embedded on a single printed circuit board (PCB). The best example of SBC is Raspberry Pi.

The system requires a main base-processing board able to connect to all other system parts including the input and output units, and able to execute the high-computational image processing models. Using low-power micro-controllers as the main base board is not feasible since they have a limited processing capability. A much better choice for the main processing base unit is a single-board computer (SBC) (Pajankar, 2017). The SBC is a complete computer unit built on a single circuit board. It includes microprocessor, memory, input-output units and it functions as a general-purpose computer. Many available systems are using such efficient SBCs, for example, in Robot Control (Rasmussen, 1989) and other applications (Akash et al., 2015). The OrangePi Zero Plus2 (Orange pi zero plus2) has a fast 1.2 GHz 64-bit quad-core CPU, with an internal storage of 8GB and 512MB RAM, small and light, power consumption under 1 W. It has Linux mainline software support with other required features for the system. This makes the OPiZP2 a perfect choice for the proposed system. The system will use this SBC with its expansion board as the main system board.

Sensing. Sensing elements which are constituted by sensor and connectivity boards (SCBs) are now moving to system-on-a-chip arrangements (SoCs). The move towards SoCs has popularized concepts of PnPs. These devices can shift on assembly lines as per their appropriate change in the role over the period with just firmware updated for new use. This particular segment decentralizes the computing/sensing power, and it would be interesting to see their utilization in the textile industry. The life cycle of sensing elements, which are sensors embedded in the SBC with built-in TCP/IP, is a function of identification elements discussed above but also the evolution of material sciences, which is not the scope of this review. SBC, which is a complete computer built on a single circuit board, has been around since the 1970s and has increasingly become more sophisticated with decreasing density of Integrated circuits (ICs). SCBs have been part of PLCs, which are industry standard computers in most manufacturing settings. An example of SCBs is BlueBox, an electronic control box provided by Picanol (a major OEM in weaving). SoC is very popular in mobile computing due to restrained space and power needs. Textile mills should expect major OEMs to integrate SoCs in major electronic components; this transition is expected as the newer versions of textile machines are launched in the future.

Currently, the largest manufacturers of Single Board Computers (SBC) are Raspberry Pi Foundation and Beaglebone Foundation, both providing open hardware designs. While Beaglebone has a smaller community and a more limited market share as Raspberry Pi, their boards are still popular because they tend to be more application-focused than Raspberry Pi.
