You can also create your own cover

System integrators and end users can use a 3-D printer to create a customized design. You can use a 3-D printer to:

  • Create a cosmetic (nonfunctional) cover with a personalized logo (ideal for product differentiation and branding).
  • Create a taller customized cover that provides headroom to add third-party hardware features:
    • Extra ports, such as RS232 COM ports or USB ports, by connecting to onboard headers
    • SDXC card readers
    • TV tuners
    • Cameras

You can download cover drawings to use with 3-D printers below. We provide these materials as-is, with no express, or implied warranties.
