Bill of materials — Phase I

Phase I instruments one production module (Angela) at LBZF in Pereira with 2 cameras + 1 Jetson + 1 PoE switch, plus a parallel single-Jetson set for the ITBA Buenos Aires research team. Hardware was finalized 2026-05-11 (see ADR-001 through ADR-006); all CA-side items were purchased by Armando from Amazon and are returnable through 2026-05-15.

Still-to-buy total before BA (rows 8–11): ~$45–60.

The ITBA twin set is Jetson + 1TB NVMe + Waveshare Case A + 1 Amcrest camera — a research/dev box, not a factory replica. ITBA supplies their own PoE injector or lab switch for the bench camera; no TL-SG2210MP ships to BA.

What ITBA gets in software is covered in argentina-twin-set.md. Customs letters and the bilingual handoff packet are tracked at the G1 gate.

Phase I deploys with no on-site cold spares beyond what’s already in the BOM. Sophia/Armando/Andrew accept this risk because:

  • The ITBA Jetson can act as a 36–48 hour shipping-distance cold spare for the LBZF Jetson if the LBZF unit dies post-deploy.
  • Amcrest cameras are Amazon-sourced; replacement is a re-order with no gray-market customs issue.
  • The TL-SG2210MP is EOS but its successor is a drop-in.

Phase II revisits spares once the system is live and we know which components actually fail.

  • Backend / ML: assumes YOLOv8n on Orin Nano Super 8GB (ADR-003). Phase II behavioral models may need NX 16GB minimum or AGX Orin — out of Phase I BOM scope.
  • Network: the TL-SG2210MP’s VLAN/ACL features are what implement the Amcrest air-gap per ADR-001. See network-and-tailscale.md.
  • Business: customs paperwork (bilingual letters from Mariana at LBZF and Raul Marino at ITBA) is tracked at the G1 gate, not here.

The April 2026 v1.9 pre-deployment plan specified a different hardware set: 6× Dahua IPC-HDW2849T-S-IL fixed-lens 8MP cameras (sourced from Nelly’s Security to avoid Amazon gray-market risk), a two-switch topology (TP-Link TL-SG1428PE main + TL-SG1008P per-line), inference at 15 fps from a 640×480 sub-stream, and a budget of ~$2,500. Both the camera choice (ADR-001) and the switch topology (ADR-002) were revised on 2026-05-11 once on-site framing constraints and the 2-camera Phase I scope became clear. The v1.9 plan is preserved in Drive (10dE-XQZZb5h1ST7v6dkttxMPjWREluuP, locked 2026-04-27) for traceability.
