As a commercial project, entering an existing market makes no sense,
but as a hobby project doing something done before is fine.  The first
stage of any design is defining what is to be implemented. This is a
very different problem than implementation. You can learn as much
about designing building and programming by doing a printer buffer as
if you set out to build a torque controller for a left handed
framistat.
