I think the problem here is you have two complicated things to solve, both hardware and software and you're trying to do it with out too much money.

A small hardware project on its own might be doable.

Yea I agree the scope is more manageable than the examples I mentioned.

But even then, they're tackling a very hard problem. Branding, manufacturing, quality assurance, distribution... So many things can go wrong.

I'm not making a prediction but I'm with Ars Technica in the "healthy skeptic" camp. I do hope they beat the odds.
