8  Advanced projects
                by us, and we received the enclosure at the beginning of 2022. There
                have been many Raspberry Pi-related projects on Kickstarter, a crowd-
                funding platform based in New York, some of which attracted our at-
                tention:

                  1. Joy-IT Multimedia Case for Raspberry Pi 4
                  2. Short Circuits: a platform for learning electronics (for building
                    modular  devices  while  learning  about  circuitry,  soldering,  and
                    coding)
                  3. Strawberry4Pi 2: A hardware and software for Raspberry Pi (an
                    IoT solution for Raspberry Pi)
                  4. Remodo X: a designer remote for Raspberry Pi (a programmable
                    BLE remote that supports Kodi, OpenHab, Home-Assistant, etc.)
