Thank you for writing this article and for the great project.Do you have any plans for opensource wireless chips 802.11?

Thank you. We have plans to connect an 802.11 card/module (probably M.2 via PCIe) to the FPGA and manage it from the ARM processor. This can be done as a daughter card. We're looking for the right 802.11 module that is a good choice for an embedded system like this (not Windows / *nix).

Wouldn't that run into regulatory issues?

If you wanted to sell them for general use you'd need to get the government stamp of approval on interference testing.
