There was a dormant one at WBUT if I recall, 'tis the same or a new ?
How is it being planned to be used ?
I don't know if there was any..But its from scratch.
Firstly its planned to be used in the install fest , then to serve to
the university locally.
Any suggestions to make it more useful?

Is this ready to be prototyped ?
Afraid no. :) It will take a few more days. But I installed F7 on the
UVC..It ran fine (Except the same old X) without any performance loss.
Right now we have 3 uvc running on F7. All the peripherals are working
fine. But we want to optimize it for better performance and downsizing
it.

Susmit.
