Description

Please estimate the total cost of the 1st prototype and add it to this page:

https://github.com/V3lectronics/SPIRIT/wiki/Cost

It would be useful if you structured the cost into groups (e.g. chassis, components, etc.)

The specs config that is chosen (e.g. amount of ram) impacts the price so write down what configuration did you estimate for.

Thanks!

Research direction
Start by visiting the SPIRIT wiki Cost page at the provided link. Research prices for the Raspberry Pi CM5 and other components needed for the first prototype, using online retailers like DigiKey or Mouser. Structure the cost into groups such as chassis, components, and peripherals. Note the configuration chosen for estimation (e.g., RAM amount). Then edit the wiki page to add the structured cost estimate.
