About this project
Ghosty is a non traditional Arduino project enclosure. While it does not offer protection from the elements, it does offer character. When was the last time your project box made you smile? Besides, who needs protection from the elements when you have character!?
The reason I decided to bring this project to kickstarter is to gauge an interest for this kind of project enclosures. The design has been completed and I am waiting to see the reaction from the kickstarter community to start the production of this enclosure. The funds will be used to cover part of the cost for the plastic injection mold. The mold is much more expensive, but I realize that if we can get funding from kickstarter that means their must be interest, so I will recover and hopefully make a profit in post sales. If the goal is achieved it will take about 60 days to make the mold and have the first production run, and promptly dispatched to you.
I designed this project box in collaboration with DFRobot.com. They have been a great team to work with. I'd like to thank Ricky, Barry, and the rest of the DFRobot team for their support.
And of course, thanks kickstarter and all for your support!
If this project is funded successfully I promise I will make a better video next time I make a kickstarter project :)
