Hackster ☛ The Femtofox Pro Is an Ubuntu-Running Single-Board Computer Built with Meshtastic in Mind
Mononymous maker Tom, also known as "NomDeTom," has built a quasi-single-board computer for those who want to experiment with both low-power Linux applications and the Meshtastic mesh networking project: the Femtofox Pro.
"Femtofox is a flexible and efficient Arm-based Linux development board designed for hobbyists, developers, and engineers who want a compact, low-power computing platform with built-in Meshtastic support, extensive GPIO [General-Purpose Input/Output] access, and flexible connectivity," Tom explains of the device. "Whether you're building a solar-powered Linux node, an IoT [Internet of Things] gateway, a mesh networking device, or something completely new, Femtofox provides the foundation to make it possible."
