(Jason Krinder of Beagleboard.org announced BeagleBone Green at Bay Area Maker Faire, the latest version has removed the battery backed up Real Time Clock (RTC) and you can use Grove - RTC instead.)
BeagleBone Green (BBG) is based on the classical open-source hardware design of BeagleBone Black (BBB) and added two Grove connectors.
It has removed the HDMI port on the BBB and also updated the 5V barrel to Micro USB host.
