The Illusion of Progress Is Killing Your Product
 (But no one’s talking about it) Your feed is filled with funding winters, flashy pivots, and weekly layoff updates.
 But here’s what most founders won’t admit: → Your hardware stack might be the reason your product won’t scale.
Not the market.
Not your team.
Not even the economy. Just one sensor a cheap, classroom-grade component never meant for rugged, real-world conditions. And now? → You’re collecting garbage data 
→ Your models are underperforming
 → Your clients are frustrated 
 → Your burn rate is quietly rising DIY ≠ Deployable We’ve seen it promising projects collapse in deployment because they’re built with classroom-grade sensors. These sensors work in demos, not in the field: → YL-69 soil sensors corrode quickly
 → DS18B20 temp sensors fail in high heat
 → ACS712 current sensors burn out in industrial setups
 → IR modules misfire in dusty environments These aren’t bugs.
 They’re blind spots that destroy trust and ruin reliability. A Better Path: Industrial-Grade Replacements → Replace YL-69 with Decagon EC-5 — no corrosion
 → Swap DS18B20 with PT100 RTD or Type K Thermocouple — handles high temps
 → Ditch ACS712 for LEM Hall Effect or Split-Core CT — real electrical safety
 → Trade IR modules for Omron or Pepperl+Fuchs proximity sensors — rugged & reliable Real-world tested.
Field-proven.
Safety-compliant. What Vithsutra Brings to the Table At Vithsutra , we help startups scale confidently: → From proof-of-concept to production-ready builds 
→ Curated industrial-grade sensors with documentation
 → Support for educators & early-stage founders
