I skimmed your website - Don't be scared of doing things the right way. Ie, not stringing together dev boards. Learn how to design circuit boards - KiCad is a good-enough free option. Learn a 3D CAD program like Solidworks or Fusion for enclosure/part design. You can skip injection-molding an enclosure by machining a pre-made one, eg by Hammond.
Just do it. You'll have to learn a lot, but it's the answer to this X/Y question. The Art of Electronics is a nice book for learning about analog circuits, but you can get away with a lot these days by wiring together ICs that do the magic internally.
- Abishek_Muthian 5y agoI think since I visualized this project to be DIY from the start and was determined to 'not to ship hardware' the need for developing custom board never occurred to me. More over, the part which goes under our butt needs to be very robust I'm not sure if I could come up with something other than injection molding to replace a simple button on a breadboard but that would increase the cost of the product several fold. Thank you for the book(The Art of Electronics) recommendation!
