We would love to see 2x ethernet ports, rs-485, and a metal case for better temp regulation.
Presumably this would be active POE so we don’t have to worry so much about the input power.
Second the metal case. It is also important to us that all connectors be secure due to high vibration in our working environment.
Could we get an estimated prototype date for the new Fin 2.0?
Stumbled on this:
Perhaps an inspiration for the Fin2
Thank you @barryjump yes! this is pretty similar of what we want to do! Thank you for your feedback
Bluetooth 5.2 and/or a second expansion slot (mPCIe or M.2).
Yes, double mpcie would be very very nice
Hi,
any news about the date when the product will be available ?
Regards
Hi,
any news from the team ?
Hi…Kind of - two Raspberry Pi 3B would likewise get two cameras, twice as many register centers, with a similar inactive current.
I have never arrived behind schedule of actual memory, (or seen trade go much above 5%), and am scarcely ready to utilize one camera up until this point. The “Balance” simply doesn’t appear to be a decent incentive, for “simple human” robots.
Increasing my broadly useful Pi 3B with a particular reason picture processor Hat - that seems like what’s to come
Received that Oratek Tofu board a few days ago and I can confirm it’s pretty nice. Very well made.
The only challenge is that it has an M.2 slot on the bottom (which is great for some) but I think a lot of us could use a full sized mpcie slot.
Still an excellent example of what Fin2.0 could be.
Thank you for this
I’ll switch to this board, because no delay an no news from the balena team.
Hello @hsd the balenaFin team is still working on the Fin 2.0.
I will ping them to send a new update meanwhile let us know how does it work the Tofu board for you with balena
Hello,
thank you for your answer.
Tofu is a really good hardware I think that lots of people could switch from balenafin to Tofu because 21 days to say “i’ll ping them” …
@hsd Revisiting this thread to provide a status; currently there are no updates on the Fin 2.0, due to limitations on the supply chain for the Compute Module 4, the work on this product has been forced to a halt. We’re currently working on a hardware solution to enable our customers to deploy existing devices (RPi3/4) with industrialised form factors but this is still in a very early prototype phase. We will of course provide more details about this as the solution formalises. Thanks for your patience!
