Roadmap

Eight milestones, from the bench to a season afloat.

The board is fixed first. Everything else joins it.

  1. M1

    Bench validated

    The measurement chain calibrated against a reference; the real quiescent current measured.

  2. M2

    First boards

    Four-layer boards fabricated, assembled and brought up.

  3. M3

    Firmware v1

    Measurement, state of charge, remote reporting, watchdog.

  4. M4

    Afloat

    Node installed upstream of the main switch; a full season with the boat.

  5. M5

    Through the winter

    Telemetry kept through layup; the consumption budget held.

  6. M6

    Open design

    Schematic, scripts, bill of materials and calibration published.

  7. M7

    Second sensor

    Outboard charging current on the same bus, no extra cable.

  8. M8

    Beyond energy

    Attitude and wind nodes join the same network.
