\"\"<\/a>If you have been following the progress of the TrailMark, you probably know that it’s been an incredible journey that has tested patience and perseverance. From building a product that could have been released if\u00a0it wasn’t for navigating the maze of covid chip shortages, and the need for finding all new components, re-engineering the platform from component selection to PCB design.. and now new firmware to be written.
\nInch by inch, we are getting closer to a new version that can be built at scale which will drastically up your prerunning game.
\nIn nutshell, the latest revision has powered up and shown first signs of life on the new chip. A small and quiet victorious step acheived at 11PM at the electronics bench earlier this week.<\/p>\n

As I juggle various development and customer service \/ order fulfillment, I don’t have a firm ETA but things feel like they are finally getting really close to testing this final itteration.
\nProvided the onboard peripherals function as intended… it’s just needs the firmware written to not only replicate the prototype functionality but add powerfull\u00a0additional features to help knock your racing efforts out of the park.<\/p>\n

Exciting stuff.<\/p>\n

Stay Tuned, and make sure to whitelist my e-mail address so my announcments make it to your inbox. Not only am I excited for this release, but I have more cool and much needed devices planned. The trailmark is forging the way with this new chip.<\/p>\n

Thanks for sticking with me on this journey, I’m looking forward to this release as I know many of you are as well.
