    It’s a ton of money when comparing it to mainstream electronics, but I’d imagine that $300 single payment is a drop in the bucket for something medical. Anyone who needs it probably spends similar amounts or more adapting other everyday things for ease of use.

    It’s a niche probably low volume product that requires a good amount of hardware and software engineering.

      Agreed, imagine what it would cost custom (though not necessarily DIY) or from a medical device manufacturer (shudder).
