For anyone interested in CHERI for embedded/IoT and other similar use cases lowRISC (whom I work for) are building a couple of FPGA based evaluation platforms for CHERIoT (The Microsoft created CHERI variant referred to above): https://www.sunburst-project.org/ https://www.sunburst-project.org/
The first is the Sonata system: https://github.com/lowRISC/sonata-system https://github.com/lowRISC/sonata-system. This comprises a dedicated PCB with an FPGA along with various peripherals and headers. The PCB design is done and will be available through Mouser (plus it's open source including the board layout so you can assemble your own if you like). We're currently working on the RTL for the FPGA. When complete you'll have a complete CHERIoT based microcontroller like system with documentation and tooling.
Additionally we're building the Symphony system, which combines Sonata with the OpenTitan Earl Grey root of trust: https://github.com/lowRISC/symphony-system https://github.com/lowRISC/symphony-system
