happyrush WROTE:If we joined you then what is the benefit you can provide?i propose you to use PIC32, because they provide TCP/IP protocol stack, such a real time data acquisition need a operating system, you can use FreeRTOS, is a very good multitasking and very small OS for MCU and it is open source.
if you can provide more details please forward your specification or your design block diagram to
happyrush@live.com
I'm looking for partners to jointly built this product/solution.
If we share all the responsibility like product design, hardware & software development and also financial investment, we can start a company, market & sell the product and split the profits according to the company share.
What the pros and cons of using PIC32 vs AVR/Atmel ?
I've no experience with PIC32 before...
The TCP/IP & storage portion would be taken care by Embedded Linux...
On sharing the codes.... my views are :-
If most of the codes are contributed by open source community, then I will share the codes and design with the community.
If I've to pay someone to design the hardware or write the software, then those section would remain close sourced until I get back my investment.
I strongly believe in open source as the design/codes can be scrutinized/reviewed by the community before being commercialized.
