IoT developers and hobbyists often need durable, low-power computing devices for edge applications, but rising Raspberry Pi prices are making this harder.
Create a Raspberry Pi-based device optimized for durability and low power consumption, with features like waterproofing, shock resistance, and wide-temperature-range operation.
Sell directly to IoT developers and hobbyists as an affordable, durable alternative to more expensive industrial computing solutions.
The MVP could be a Raspberry Pi in a rugged enclosure with basic durability features. Add more specialized features over time.
The biggest risk is competing with cheaper, non-durable Raspberry Pi setups that users might prefer for cost reasons.
