Building the TileCube

The TileSystem is the required flexible and compact embedded processing platform.

The concept was finalized during the MARISense project.

TileCube System

When all the parts of the system came, we were able to check the designed mechanical integration of a multi-board design using the Altium Designer CAD against the actual hardware. Initially, each component was checked that fit properly the mechanical enclosure. This was a preliminary test to verify PCB width and component height that might affect the assembly. Although the backplane boards are missing from the below setup, the HAT and other connectors and protruding pins were checked for potential conflicts.

Then we added the back/front plane boards to complete and final check the system assembly.
