New contract for a prototype and joining the Soldered Electronics Inkubator.

Hey fellow nerds 🤓

A couple of weeks ago, I signed a new contract with Soldered. At the end of June, they will start developing the prototype. This prototype is optimized for their manufacturing process and will add the child lock feature I wrote about a couple of weeks ago.

I also joined the Soldered Electronics Inkubator.

Soldered is known for its E-Ink screen Inkplate in the maker scene.

What does this mean?

  • I get a reliable manufacturer in Europe
  • A partner with experience bringing a product to the market

One of their recent project was the Zerowriter Ink, which I have been following for quite some time. A very interesting device for writers!

I love single-purpose devices. They remove the distractions a laptop or smartphone has. That is why I use an E-Ink reader for reading and a voice recorder for creating drafts with my voice and Whisper.cpp for transcoding them to text.

Anyway. When a new prototype arrives, I will write something here.

If you have any friends or coworkers who do not know about the PokyPow yet, let them know! Hardware Parental Control for your kids' gaming PC is a must-have when your kid is anything like me 😉
