I am working on developing IoT sensors that can be deployed in Industrial environments - especially ones that are battery powered, wireless(mesh network), and are intrinsically safe(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_safety).
Currently I have been experimenting with Teensy 3.6 and like what we see with the main board and the shield. I used Digi XBee Pro for wireless mesh network. I have run into some practical challenges with productizing this further.
I would love to get some inputs on how we can adapt Teensy to the Industrial IoT area - especially:
1. How to get an Arduino compatible shield designed for Teensy 3.6 + Prop Shield. The idea is that with this type of shield, we can tap into arduino shield ecosystem for additional sensors and I/O capabilities like 4-20 mA/RS485 etc. We tried using the teensy shield from sparkfun, but it was only 3.1 compatible and it is not arduino compatible.
2. How to get an intrinsically safe board designed for Teensy. Its not that complicated based on what I have read, most of it is some changes to power flows(if at all needed) and then getting testing/certifications.
Any suggestions/inputs welcome.
If anyone is able to offer this in return for compensation, I am willing to consider.
Thanks.
