We have updates across our projects since FOSDEM'20:

+ showcase: "All of those opensource hardware projects are focusing on the CPU side:\r\ \nRISC-V, all kinds of open CPU cores, Raspberry PI, xxxx PI, PINE64, openWRT, AI/machine-learning\ \ accelerators.\r\nHowever the radio connectivity part of those opensource hardware\ \ boards are still from black-box silicon (commercial chips, like WiFi chips from\ - \ big companies).\r\nOpenwifi project, which was announced in the last FOSDEM, is\ + \ big companies).\r\nOpenwifi project, which was announced in the FOSDEM'20, is\ \ the first attempt to build an opensource chip in the radio connectivity domain!\r\ \nNow we have tested the design on the FPGA development board (SDR -- Software Defined\ \ Radio), and it works well in the real world scenario. Meanwhile we also add some\ \ unique features that commercial chips don't have.\r\n\r\nWe hope more people can\ \ come and think about the opensource activity in the radio chip domain, and invest\ - \ more in this domain!\r\n\r\nWe are also eager to hear from people about the idea\ - \ (under internal preparation): Low cost SDR openwifi dongle (<100usd) and chip\ - \ tape out plan." + \ more in this domain!\r\n\r\nWe are also eager to seek people's voice and help about\ + \ the idea of: Low cost SDR openwifi dongle (+/-200usd) and chip\ + \ tape out!" themes: - Hardware title: openwifi -- 2.30.2
