Hi Kevin,

  What about a cheap but capable board that could host Android and provide a platform that could run many "smartphone apps" without the "smartphone cost"? Some kind of AI acceleration would be a plus.

Triembed,

From time to time interesting "mini" boards appear from maker groups, ham operators, etc. to solve a particular problem (current sense, fpga develoment, DDS, etc.)  These devices are inexpensive ( $50 +/- to a couple of hundred dollars) and offer more specific capabilities than the generic OEM reference designs without man-years of development.  They have enough market interest (100's or maybe 1000's of units) to justify development effort but not enough to attract the Chinese Walkers (the giant four-legged assault vehicles from "Empire Strikes Back").  My apologies to Mr. Lucas.

I am a HW guy.  My wheelhouse is PCB's, FPGA, and firmware.  My interest far outstrips my ability on the host side (application development, device drivers).  I am looking for such ideas to implement as an open collaboration of people having complementary skills.

Thank you for taking the time to read.  I return you to the other 500 emails in your Inbox. :-)

Sincerely,
Kevin Schilf
