The funny thing is that that board is actually designed to be arrowhead-shaped, not just a shard sawn off a larger PCB. I wonder what it came from (assuming it's real)?
Perhaps a board from some form of drone that fits in the nose cone?
Edit: Never mind, saw the comment about the #1 pin.
"This hunting trip is brought to you by our sponsor, PCBWay."
"Our favorite thing about PCBWay has to be their shared projects. This week we'd like to highlight the one about using old cat6 for trapping and the best places to scavenge for it"
I noticed the same thing. Maybe it’s AI. I don’t see any inputs or power source and there’s no indication that there’s anything big enough on the other side to be either.
The big chip has 2 number one pin markings
It does look close to PCBs you'd see in random key fobs but I think solid chance it's a prop (or AI). If you look close and of course we do only see one side but a lot of the things you'd expect to see are missing. What could this do, how does it interact or connect to things, whats up with those traces and why are they going there, who made this and why is nothing labeled? None of that is definitive, but it's weird to have that many questions like those on a real PCB.
