mikroPhone drivers + GUI
Full-featured expandable mobile phone from off-the-shelf components
mikroPhone is a device in the form factor of a mobile phone that features ARM computer acting as a smart-phone and RISC-V microcontroller acting as a feature phone. It is a fully open hardware device and it can easily be built in a home lab. It is intended to protect user's privacy to the highest possible level and to bring data sovereignty back to its users. The aim of this project is to implement Linux drivers, provide mobile GUI environment, introduce Android application support and improve applications for the microcontroller's operating system. This project will deliver a fully-featured smart-phone with emphasis on privacy, security and extensibility.
