RE: Additional processor for Sentinel
@tom
Thank you for your insightful questions and for highlighting the VOXL 2's capabilities.
By "additional processor," we were initially considering adding a secondary processor to handle specific tasks that we assumed might exceed VOXL 2's processing capabilities. However, your comment made us take a closer look, and we now realize that VOXL 2 might indeed handle the additional processing we had in mind.We'll explore leveraging the Qualcomm QRB5165 on VOXL 2 to handle these tasks instead of introducing extra hardware. This approach could simplify our design and optimize data flow.
Appreciate your input—it’s given us a valuable direction to explore! -
RE: Additional processor for Sentinel
@tom
Thank you for your response.
We are currently using SKU: MDK-M0090-3-02-01, which is the M0090 board equipped with the Sierra Wireless modem. Considering this setup, I’d like to clarify a few points:
Can we use the existing communication unit and battery for the additional processor we plan to integrate for addition computing tasks?
Alternatively, instead of adding another CPU/processor, would it be feasible to leverage the Qualcomm QRB5165 already present in the Sentinel system to handle the additional tasks?

Additional processor for Sentinel
We are considering adding a second processor, a 5G communication unit, and a battery to the Sentinel system to enable it to perform additional tasks and communicate data back to the server. Could you please provide your recommendations regarding:
- The compatibility of these components with the existing Sentinel architecture.
- The most efficient way to integrate the second processor to ensure optimal performance.
- Suitable 5G communication units for seamless connectivity.
- Battery options that would provide sufficient power without significantly increasing weight or size.
- Any potential challenges we might encounter during integration and how to address them.
