Start small, expand as needed
Prototype on a used or new compact workstation or tower, with memory and local acceleration sized to actual workloads.
The Library / Hardware
Modular hardware that residents can maintain.
Our early direction uses practical, repairable computers rather than requiring every household to buy an expensive proprietary appliance.
10 TB design target
The long-term household standard targets expandable 10 TB storage. Pilot capacity and cost will depend on the selected equipment.
Useful during disruptions
Plan essential-load backup power, graceful shutdown and recovery; solar integration is a future household design objective.
Local Wi-Fi and wired access
Support local phone, panel and PAD connections through household networking, with optional wired power and data.
Accessible replacement parts
Document drives, power supplies, firmware versions and safe servicing steps. Leave space for future upgrades.
Independent operation
Core household integrations should not depend on mandatory recurring cloud AI fees; cloud features may have separate costs.
Current status: hardware platform selection and prototype integration are in progress. These are targets, not established product specifications.
