# Business Objectives
-we are creating a full libre architected hybrid CPU/VPU/GPU for manufacturers who need security through full transparency of ssoftware and hardware, with greatly reduced RTL licensing costs, unlike other chips in this field which have unauditable architectures and proprietary drivers.

* the project shall be a hybrid CPU-GPU-VPU
* the project shall be commercial and mass-volume (100 million units
into the design". Yes, GCHQ: I know about the conversation you had
with nCipher (and, to their everlasting credit, that they told you
to take a hike)
-
* Because both 3D and VPU hardware and software are fully transparent, application development time and debugging complexity is massively reduced.
* the chip design is being created in commonly-available programming languages, making it easier to understand.
-* the development follows libre project management principles meaning that there is a full audit trail for maintenance and audit purposes.
+* the development follows libre project management principles meaning that there is a full audit trail for maintenance and audit purposes
+ *which does not need an NDA to review or participate in*.
* the formal proofs make testing and trust much easier.
* the full transparency leverages experts' willingness to openly assist and help our business succeed, greatly reducing NREs and reducing risk.
