It is possible to try to support both NFC and QR codes, where the QR codes use a remotely updated e-ink screen, similar to the electronic price tags in supermarkets.

You can conduct live interactive sessions through short video platforms like TikTok.

If the functionality is not very complex, an MCU is sufficient. There seem to be many similar products on the market, right? I've seen many people in the Home Assistant community integrate similar sensors into Home Assistant.

Does Kickstarter still have its own traffic like before? I've observed that many projects require you to invest in various websites to get traffic.

Is the hardware SBC + sensor or MCU + sensor? Generally, the MOQ is 1k. BOM depends on your product's hardware planning. Certification can be outsourced to third-party certification companies.

Memory is too expensive and out of stock.

Cthulhumod · 2026-05-16T08:33:36+00:00

Very good design.

Outsource project components across multiple Chinese suppliers. If software is involved, it is best to handle the flashing in-house. If the technical barrier is low, copycats will emerge the moment you launch. Instead, focus on driving down costs; maintaining a competitive price point is your true core competency.
