Why did we decide to develop the
Music802?
At first, we just wanted to devolop a prototype board for streaming the android/ios smart device’s high quality music to speakers through WiFi. In order to choose the best platform for this case, we had tested some CPUs, such as RT5350
(but has high power consumption), Allwinner H3(powerful but has high
cost and complicated software), and finally we chose AR9331 for its
features: low power consumption, WiFi, I2S interface, SPDIF out, 400M MIPS CPU,
and can decode audio streaming smoothly.
In the process of developing AR9331, we found many interesting applications. Such as Remote Control DSLR, Stream video from webcam, DIY soft define radio using RTL2832,audio Capture, 3G/4G WiFi Router, DIY internet radio
and so on. So we decided to design a full-featured, extensible
prototype board based on AR9331+OpenWRT to save you time during developing a
new WiFi product.

What We Need &What you will Get?
We need 7,500 USD fund to improve the design and make samples to pass FCC and CE with full kit. And the price will be too high for small quantities ,only mass production will lower its cost.Music802 needs your help.
With your help,you will not only get the Music802 but also its full hardware design including sch, pcb and bom, full source code including boot loader, os(openwrt), applications. You can control every bit of your Music802.
