All of the pin definitions can be found in the official [BeagleBone System
Reference Manual][6].

### Sensors

The attached temperature sensors are [MLX90614][7] digital infrared
thermometers. Their datasheet can be found [here][8].

They speak I2C natively, so they simply need to be hooked up to 5V, ground, and
the two bus lines, each of which can be connected directly from the BeagleBone.
The SDA and SCL lines also require 4.7K pullup resistors, as shown in the
schematic.
