Description:
Notify is an intelligent multi-purpose sensor that determines occupancy and activity in an environment. Notify's target audience is home owners so the device must be both functional and elegant. Notify uses deep learning on data streams from over 12 different sensors in order to determine occupancy and classify activities in a given environment. The aim of this contest is to develop a robust enclosure design for Notify that satisfies the requirements listed below. Pictures of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) are attached below and include both front and back views with annotations indicating each sensors location. The PCB is 60 mm long and 50 mm wide, so the design should accommodate that size.Design Inspiration based on current motion sensors available on the market: drive.google.com/open
Wants:
Aesthetically pleasing, minimalist, functional design that meet the criteria in the attached document. Please refer to the document for more details.
Don't Wants:
Design that does not accommodate the considerations outlined in the document.

Hi Ankit I don't have a CAD design. Sorry!
Hi Aldrinc!
Can you attach CAD model of PCB? (If possible)
Can you attach CAD model of PCB? (If possible)

1. It is to provide the power on/off button? On PCB I see "reset" and "boot" ;
- Boot is the power on/off. Reset is to reset the device to factory.
2. Please specify the power and debug LEDs location on PCB;
- You can place them where you want and we will modify the case design to match - I do not want them in front of the device however because it will be obtrusive and this device needs to be out of mind.
3. Does the PIR sensor require a specific fringed lens or sufficient thin PE plastic lenses?
- Thin PE lens works
4. Can the EMI, Thermo Cam and RGB sensors be covered the same thin lens as the PIR sensor?
- No - the EMI thermo and RGB cannot be covered by PE lens
5. Does the case must have AC in and AC outlet connectors?
- I am moving to USB-C instead of AC outlet connectors so design with a female USB-C port (like bottom of iPhone) in mind.
7. Is the device used only in the wall plugged position?
- This device should have a mount so that it can be used in other positions.
8. Pleas specify EMI senosrs model, I need his dimensions.
- See the sensor V2 document attached which has sensor specifications.
- Boot is the power on/off. Reset is to reset the device to factory.

1. Where's the thermal camera sensor located? Is it on separate module?
- the Thermal camera is located on the board - I am open to recommended placement on the board.
2. Is it powered by battery or A/C inlet?
AC Outlet
3. If powered by battery, what type and size?
N/A since its AC outlet

POWER, TX, RX etc (red on PCB), are these LEDs?
If so, do they need to be visible?
If not, are there any LEDs that need to be visible indicating on/off or other conditions?

Just saw the spreadsheet, Don't worry about the sensors
Hey there, Can you specify the Thickness of the PCB so that the mounts it fits snug in the enclosure.If you can, please provide the Dimension constraints for the enclosure. The Placement position and the dimensions of the sensors, on the enclosure would be a lot appreciated.
Thank you
I have uploaded higher resolution photos. Thank you for the feedback!
...and which one the power button is + the diode :)
Hi, please provide a PCB picture with better resolution...very hard to read component descriptions
Thanks
Thanks

Bottle Boxer
We currently box 6 little bottles by hand and would like to automate the procedure. We box 3000 gift pack a day.
Our current procedure is: We lay down 300 open boxes on a table and put each bottle one at the time inside the box. We would like to automate this process.
Currently, the bottles are just put in bins and we grab them by hand. Or we can have them nicely standing up in a custom made bins that are open at the front.

there are many vaporizers on the market, PAX,SOLO,DAVINCCI,BUT NO ONE IS ATTRACTIVE.WE NEED A NEW DESIGN,ATTRACT ALL COSUMERS
SuperSuv to be hand built for personal use
Off/On Road Super SUV, 3 seater Central driving position like a Mclaren. Rear engined, removable roof which when not in use goes over engine bay. 26 inch rims. Very clean lines. Will use donor lights (pictures included in files). Car must be dramatic with very clean simple lines. Interior must be very simple and clean lines.
I have uploaded many files for inspiration. Countach for rear. Corvette for door treatment. White lotus for air vents. Diablo for roof and body lines.
