An Interview with Robert Feranec

Robert started designing electronics in 2000 post university. His first project was designing an IP telephone using Linux.
While his paid course is at Fedevel.com, he has free videos on his youtube channel called "matarofe"
We enjoyed his video on how to work as a freelancer. There are two kinds of freelancer:
- Lifestyle freelancers
- Status seekers
He later realized 3 things about freelance
- Limited by hours
- Always working for someone else
- Only get to sell work once
The iMX6 Rex is one of his large projects, though you can view all 4 projects (and associated courses) here.
Robert just attended PCB west and saw the new active router created by Altium. This was discussed at length on the EEVblog forum.
When Altium changed how the board outline was done, Robert did a video on how it had changed (instead of updating the private course)
Robert has been trying out Circuit Studio. Dave likes the pricing.
The main open design for Fedevel is the OpenRex.
Dave recently proposed changes to the OSHW logo that he believes will unify the ideas.
Chris will be at OHS in early October and Robert may join as well!
