This is awesome. Glad to see technology being put to such good use. What are the primary use cases in the short run? Goes without saying that there are a ton of cool things this could be used for beyond the initial use cases. Tons of potential here.
Lots of use cases - If you have spent extra time rifling through your board files and datasheets to figure out which pins on which components are tied to the 3.3V rail, or where a particular resistor or IC is located on the board, or the correct part number and orientation of a component during PCB assembly, then our tool would be a good fit.
Our tool uses augmented reality to instantly show you where any signal runs on the board, the location, pinout, and value for any component (IC, passives, connectors, etc.), and allows you to visualize traces and components on any layer or side of the board - and so much more.
So certainly debugging, rework, and assembly. Also in education, as people are getting their hands dirty with PCBs for the first time - being able to keep you eyes and hands on the board while seeing which signals run where on the board, where easy areas to probe are, etc., is incredibly useful.
Woah, this is very cool. What use cases do you envision? The obvious one is debugging boards without flipping through schematics, but it feels like there is a lot of potential. Excited to try it out!
You're definitely spot-on about being able to avoid flipping through dense schematics to understand what pins and components are electrically connected, and where that connectivity lies on the board. The goal is for this tool to be the lens through which all PCB debugging/re-work/bring-up/hands-on-testing occurs. All those different screens and monitors on your workbench? (like your oscilloscope, DMM, logic analyzer, etc.) - the ultimate goal is to have everything cleanly displayed on a single monitor, with the ability to search and share live with other engineers, to truly make debugging a more collaborative, efficient, and effective experience.
