(obsolete)
Description:
If you are a embedded developer, and you want to solve an automation challenge using bare-metal firmware development with a preference for Cortex/STM32 microcontrollers, then your options for the hardware are limited unless you go the distance and do a full-custom hardware development.
Unless... you can work with one of each RS232, RS485 and CAN, and four inputs, four open-drain outputs and two relay outputs, complemented with TFT display, Ethernet, Wifi, 2G/3G, GPS, SD card, XBee, battery options and AC power options. Then we might have a solution for you!

Optional power sources
- Integrated 20W or 100W AC/DC PSU
- Battery based on three D-cells (alkaline or 3V primary lithium)

* Some features and options are mutually exclusive. Having relays limits the size of the Arduino shield, having batteries requires 80mm enclosure and the TFT reduces IP and impact ratings.
Customisation
For project deployments with a reasonable quantity, we can customize the build of the device to optimize cost and functionality for the particular application. Also, we can label the device and arrange for packaging to suit your requirements and make it 'yours'. In addition, you can use some of our firmware deployment facilities which can help in protecting your intellectual property.
