A few things worth knowing for a torso build:
- The D333's -40 to 85 °C rating holds for the carrier board without audio, so factor that condition into your thermal budget. Its PoE, extra USB, GMSL and RTK GNSS come through optional daughter boards, which would add weight and stack height beyond the 120 g figure. profession... +1professional.avermedia.com ↗“carrier board, W/O audio”professional.avermedia.com ↗“PoE, extra USB, GMSL and RTK GNSS come through optional daughter boards”
- The Rogue-T5 accepts +12 V DC input only, which may constrain a humanoid's battery bus voltage; the D333's 12–36 V and the Realtimes boards' 9–28 V ranges are more flexible. connecttec...connecttech.com ↗“+12V DC Input Power Only”

One caveat on the ranking: 14 of the 26 Jetson Thor-compatible carrier boards in the catalog do not publish a weight, so I can't claim the D333 is lighter than those — it is the lightest only among the 12 boards that list a weight. If you want, I can pull the dimension and I/O details for any of the unranked boards (e.g., Leetop A801/A802, Auvidea X241/X242, Forecr DSBOARD-THRMAX) so you can compare them another way.
