# Numato Opsis

The Numato Opsis is the first HDMI2USB production board developed specifically for the HDMI2USB project (as part of the TimVideos project).

The board is entirely open; both the firmware that runs on the device, and the schematics for the device.  

<a href="https://www.crowdsupply.com/numato-lab/opsis">The board can now be ordered on <img src="https://www.crowdsupply.com/_teal/images/crowd-supply-logo-dark.png" style="padding: 2px; height: 2em; vertical-align: middle;"></a>

##### Footnotes

{::nomarkdown}
<div class="footnotes">
 <ul>

  <li>[4]: <a name="opsys-hdmi"></a>
On the Numato Opsis board, all the HDMI pins are under the FPGA control. This
means the board support hot plug detection and control and also CEC support
(which is missing from the firmware).
