Alternatives Considered

Needs to have custom software developed to use this product. Not good for the average user.

Likelihood to Recommend

Does not work without drivers. Unless you have an established system that has drivers or paid support, you will not be able to use this. It does not come with software and will not work on Windows 10 without drivers.
