  • I sent out a notifical email a couple of weeks ago. I learned back then there was a stocking issue. Yesterday I have a tracking number. I expect the kits any day now and will get them to you quickly.

  • To all applicants or interested roadtesters!

     

    I wanted to take a few minutes to talk about this roadtest. I made some changes and also administered the roadtest slightly different than I normally do. So, I feel the need to share my thoughts and reasoning about it.

     

    Let me start with the board:

     

    It's based on  ON Semiconductors RSL10 SiP which is Bluetooth 5 certified, and fully certified to worldwide wireless standards. It features an integrated antenna, RSL10 Radio SoC, and all passive components in a single, miniature package. It's a great little device. It's been built into a sensor development board with 2 versions: a base version and a debug version. The sensor board is super compact. And has a number of sensors including environmental, inertial (3-axis accelerometer, 3-asix gyroscope and a low-power smart hub for motion sensing), a geomagnetic sensor, and an ambient light sensor. To monitoring the sensors values, there is a mobile app that connects to several cloud services (AWS, IBMRegistered, Azure Tm, etc.). All in all, I think it is a fantastic little board. If you are into IoT, this is a great product, and that is why after I learned about it I was excited to offer it to the community to roadtest.

     

    Now to the roadtest...

     

    ON Semiconductor was nice enough to give me 10 boards (the base version) to roadtest. I launched the roadtest. I received 51 applicants. I received good applicants. But I also received applications that did not persuade me I would get a good review. For instance, this applicant answer the testing procedure question this way: "Development and implementation of the project to the end. If you make a mistake, correct it.Drawing conclusions." Honestly, this is so general that I had no idea what the applicant could or would do. I also received applicants that had not returned into the community, many of them after almost 2 months. I chose/contacted some of these people but I never received a response. I just could not justify sending the product to these people without hearing back from them. We spend a goood amount of time contacting people and at some point the returns don't measure up to the efforts. I also had some applicants who were already on roadtests; I am standing by my rule about one roadtest at a time, so I could not use them. In the end, I chose 5 people. I then decided to split the kits into 2 5-kit roadtests. I then got some feedback and input from roadtesters who said they really wanted to roadtest the debug version of the board. I brought that back to my bosses and the supplier and we decided to offer the debug version. Hence, the product change.

     

    For those who initially applied, please do so again here. But I would like to say that my job is to both offer interested community members a chance to have some fun with a roadtest as well as provide to our sponsor the best people I can to test their product. I hope I have been consistent in that mission ever since I took over managing the Roadtest program more than 2 years ago.

     

    Why I think you should apply....

     

    I really think you will have some fun experimenting with this board and using a Bluetooth 5 certified chip. If you are a maker, I think you will find plenty of fun projects to build with this board. If you are an entrepreneur, and are building a product that could use the capabilities of ON Semiconductor's products, please apply to the roadtest; I think you will be excited about them once you start testing it.

     

    If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. If you prefer, you can message me at

  • That’s great! Thanks.

  • To all applicants,

     

    I brought up the concern  some of you had regarding getting the debug version of this product with the supplier.

     

    As a result, they are sending me the debuggers and cables.

     

    Thanks for your input.

  • This board can be utilized in creating a gadget for fitting on a bicycle, bike, skate board, etc.

    With the microphone handy this can be taken to another level altogether.

  • I guess it might affect what people had planned to do with the currently-underway RoadTest if they thought they could reprogram the firmware using the debug board version. For this RoadTest, it should be clear now what you can and can't do with it, so it shouldn't be a problem for new applicants.

  • They didn't send me the debug version for the roadtest. (I saw this. I hope it doesn't turn into a problem.)

  • Would I be right in thinking that this is the same as the RSL10 Sensor Development Kit RoadTest currently underway, except without the debug board?

  • Are you saying this will wear out? image

     

    It'd look good on an energy harvesting knitted Kynar or Litz wire garment.

    As soon as you hear a noise, walk into a dark place the garment would light up!

     

    When you reach your destination the garment could start flashing.

     

    You could use it scuba diving and when you've reached your target depth it could give you visual indication.

    You could also use the mic for listening for any incoming sharks.

  • This looks like it would be suitable for a wearable project.
