vitalsd - Statistics for Embedded Systems

What is this?

vitalsd is a very simple tool that samples vital system statistics (CPU load, free/total memory, temperatures, etc.) and outputs them periodically to a serial port. It's designed to be used on embedded systems with physical serial ports that can crash in unexpected ways that leave the system in a non-triageable state.
