    Is there a way to get a unique serial number from VOXL2 hardware? We'd like to do checkouts on each VOXL2/mini platform and track units through assembly and be able to access this in software. I would imagine this gets overwritten the moment you also do a factory image flash. Just wanted to check!

    It looks like maybe you guys had something like this working in: https://docs.modalai.com/Qualcomm-Flight-RB5-sdk-utils/#rb5-flight-versions

    Perhaps based on: https://github.com/quic/sample-apps-for-robotics-platforms/blob/master/RB5/linux_kernel_4_x/platform-bringup/Device-info/src/qrb5165_info.c

    Or just cat /sys/bus/soc/devices/soc0/serial_number and we associate that with our ModalAI Serial Number.

    What hardware are you using? VOXL2, VOXL2mini
    What version of software are you using? SDK 1.1.1
    How have you configured the software? Yes (mpa, etc)
    Do you have any logs? Not required for this issue.
    Can you share pictures of your setup? If needed -- applies to any VOXL2(mini) based hardware.
    Have you looked at the source code? Yes -- did see that the RB5 has a utility that maybe can do this and the SKU utils.

      @Steve-Turner cat /sys/bus/soc/devices/soc0/serial_number is unique and will be unchanged after a factory flash.

      That is what we use internally in our prod line as a board UID
