This has been a major gap for Arduino for a while, and it's cool to see them take a crack at solving it.
Beyond the hardware, I'd love to get some more details on the software tool chain and their plans to sell/support turning the prototypes into production modules.
- joezydeco 7y agoproduction modules If there's no second source of boards, I can't consider that production ready for anything. It was and still is a COTS module that can be modified for a single purpose application but there's no way I would resell this as a commercial unit. Same for RPi and all the others. Spin it yourself or take your chances.
- HeyLaughingBoy 7y agoThe beauty of Chinese capitalism is such that if these become popular, clones will proliferate. I sell an industrial product that uses an Arduino Nano as a module on a PC board because I can buy them cheaper than I can build them. Now, if you really care about supply chain security, that might be a problem, but for everyone else...
- mbanzi 7y agoalso if you care about your product actually working. There are so.many Chinese clones that are badly made or outright dangerous..
