Become a sponsor to kripton

Hey :) I'm an open-source developer from Germany and my main areas of interest are Linux, "embedded systems" (RPi Pico, ESP32, ...), live audio and stage lighting engineering as well as live audio/video streaming.

Currently, my main project is the dmxsun, a modular 16-universe USB-to-DMX512 board with wireless DMX capabilities. For that project, I am designing the hard- as well as the firmware.

I still dream of a perfect "all-integrated" intercom system that blends live voice talk (headsets, phones, ...) with text chat (perfect for loud environments or when people cannot be attentive all times but can read the chat when they have a spare minute) and on-stage information for the bands / actors. The system would be suitable for smaller and larger venues, for "quiet" productions (theatres, musicals) as well as "loud" ones (live bands).

The sponsorship would allow me to pay for developer resources (online services, lab equipment) as well as to more regularly order prototype boards/PCBs so I can experiment with new ideas and get them "market-ready".
