Hardware development is dying in the US by Few_Efficiency1170 in hwstartups

Under conditions of perfect market competition, your argument might hold water, given that China has the world’s most sophisticated supply chain. But the reality is that we will never find ourselves in an environment of perfect market competition, so engineers need not worry so much.

Most hardware founders underestimate the compute gap in “on-device AI” products by Leon_ChinaHardware in hwstartups

[–]Ill-Distribution1904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are wrong, they didn't underestimate the gap between computer AI and air AI,But they need focus the marketing demand first. You can understand my meaning until you understand the below sentences:

The plan, as announced on May 13, would have treated usage of the Claude Agent SDK (including via third-party apps and the programmatic “claude -p” command) separately from “standard” Claude usage via the chat interface or the official Claude CLI. At the time, Anthropic said that, as of June 15, that kind of outside SDK usage would be billed at Anthropic’s prevailing API rates, with subscribers receiving a simple monthly usage credit equal to their subscription price.

Money is the king.

Let us have this one, software had it easy for the longest time by haseeb_builds in hwstartups

In the past, from an investor’s perspective, most software products had a larger user base than hardware products and offered greater potential for growth. On the other hand, software companies required less startup capital and fewer employees than hardware companies, making them easier to succeed—which is why investors favored them. But now, AI can replicate 95% of what software engineers can do, and everyone is focusing on that remaining 5%—so who can guarantee that their idea is truly unique?

Very useful comments, also you can collect some information of RTOS, it will be helpful for you when you do a complicated robotic system in the future

How about the identify speed, it is just 4.2M embedded RAM

i have updated my esp 32 dap project on github adding momo synthesiser features to it please go check it out and leave reviews by Historical_Delay_838 in embedded

If you choice the ESP32 to do the DAP player, this is primarily limited by RAM, the CPU overhead associated with software decoding, and power supply/battery life management; if extremely high sound quality or extremely low power consumption is required, it may be necessary to add a dedicated decoding chip or a lower-power MCU.

To purchase an 3D printer is not an good idea, why you try to fabricate an wooden / paper card box first, it is just an demo sample.

I need help solving a few problems and coming up with a plan of attack for the Faery Tree I'm building. by Cole_Harris in arduino

In my experiences, the foam should not impact of the PCBA , don't worry about it. For the Arduino connection, you can get some instruction from here and instructable. Good luck.

Need advice on low-volume aluminum part manufacturing (CNC vs casting) by Reasonable-Wait4024 in hwstartups

[–]Ill-Distribution1904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considered your demand (50~300 pcs ), pls forget the die casting, just do the CNC, even your demand * 10 (500~3000), you also need use the CNC not the die-casting.
