As a disclaimer, none of the authors of any of the referenced open-sourced software shall be held liable in the case of a product failure from SeRoSys Technology in case of any damages.


  1.  Licensed software used as a part of the process to conduct a firmware flash as executed from our Firmware flash software (SLSS Hardware Suite) are AVRDUDE, AVR-OBJCOPY and BOSSA.  None of these are actually incorporated as a part of our software code and simply used as standalone tools in their original form and unmodified.
