Hardware is where the digital meets up with physical reality.

In the modern world, software can be developed and deployed worldwide in timescales measured in minutes....but despite advances in development, consumer hardware at scale still presents many difficult challenges.

Although there are many modern avenues to prototyping hardware solutions, making the leap beyond RPi, Arduino, ESP level projects into mass market devices encounters challenges including funding, development, manufacturing, shipping, supply chains, and revenue models.

In this episode, Rob and PJ explore the world of hardware development, understand its pitfalls, and look at where it might be going.
