Descripción de la oferta
I want to bring a compact, consumer-friendly utility gadget to market and need an engineer who can take it from idea to production. The core of the device is simple: when triggered it must emit a clear, audible beep, making it useful as a quick-locate or alert tool. Beyond that single function, everything should be engineered for reliability, low power draw. Here’s the scope as I see it: • Electronic and industrial design: refine my concept, choose components, and build a working prototype that delivers the beeping feature consistently. • Connectivity & app: create a lightweight companion app for both Android and iOS (Bluetooth Low Energy is fine) so users can trigger or silence the device from their phone. Or it can be connected through Google Home or Smartlife • Manufacturing pathway: tap into your existing contacts to price tooling, PCB assembly, plastics, and packaging at consumer-friendly volumes, then outline distribution options. • NDA: I’ll send one immediately—please be ready to sign before we exchange deeper details. Deliverables will include the functional prototype, firmware, source files for the cross-platform app, a full BOM with cost breakdown, and at least two manufacturer quotes for a small initial run. If you have a proven track record in bringing portable gadgets to market and can manage both hardware and software sides efficiently, let’s talk timelines and milestones.
