An Interview with Robert Feranec

Listen Later

Welcome Robert Feranec of Fedevel Academy!

  • 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!
