Production Working Group

[Frijol]

The Tessel Project is forming working groups to accomplish goals within the timespan of September 2016-September 2018. Read more about the approach here

This working group is the Production working group (Production WG).

Goals

investigate user needs for production & write a guide on how to take a Tessel project to product scale. Also build and document GPIO/GUTS (Great Uses for Tessel in Stuff e.g. hacking a production system) projects

The Production WG is working towards these specific goals:

• Create a guide to production-scale deployment of a Tessel project. As part of this: Research user needs: What do people need to use T2 in production? Why aren't they using it currently?
• Lead by example: showcase existing (or create and showcase) Tessel 2 in production applications. One idea for this is to create a blog feature called GUTS: Great Uses of Tessel in Stuff. In GUTS, people take apart existing equipment such as air conditioners, elevators, production lines, etc. and make them internet-enabled with Tessels.
