## Overview
|
|
|
|
TERES-I is a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Free/Open Source Hardware (FOSH) and Software (FOSS) laptop design leveraging ARM64 and x86 processors.
|
|
DIY kits are ready-to-assemble using the instructions provided and may be found [here](https://www.olimex.com/Products/DIY-Laptop/KITS/).

## Hardware
|
|
|
|
Open-source hardware delivers transparency and freedom to the user (you) as you are able to tailor the PCBs according to your needs.
|
|
You are able to add more processors, memories, etc.
|
|
All of the hardware schematics and board files are designed using [KiCad](http://kicad-pcb.org) FOSS software.
|
|
|
|
> KiCad is free software. KiCad is made available under the GNU General Public License(GPL) version 3 or greater.
|
|
|
|
All KiCad design files are available in this repository.
|
|
|
|
Different main board configurations: the first iterration comes with ARM64 and x86 and later MIPS architecture.
|
|
Other architectures may follow.
|
|
The concept is to make templates which others may use to customize so other SOCs can be used for a main board.
|
|
TERES-I comes with 1376x768 LCD configuration. Future main boards aim at 1920x1080 pixels.
|
|
|
|
TERES-I is environmentally friendly.
|
|
The main board may be upgraded without major revisions to the design, vastly reducing waste and time when new faster and better processors become available.
|
|
Spare parts are also available for purchase.

## Laptop Assembly
|
|
|
|
Assembling this DIY laptop you would probably learn a lot of new things.
|
|
You can build it together with your kids or students, sparking interest in electronics and technology in general.
|
|
You will know every bit of your laptop and will be able to fix if something doesn't suit your needs or gets damaged.
