According to a "preliminary estimate" [...] the cost of the system's raw materials comes in at $101 per unit (around £61.76).

What exactly does that mean? How raw are we talking here?

The unit itself would be composed of those raw materials. The work in constructing it, testing for quality, anything that isn't physically contained under the hood is not part of the raw materials.
