Discussion
Dear Contest Holder, I hope you’re having a great week. Could you please provide an update on the timeline for selecting a winner?
Hi there, please take a look at entry #35. I would appreciate your feedback and am happy to make any necessary adjustments.
Can you give me a rough dimension? What should be the maximum length and width when the jaws are closed?
May we use another professional software instead of AutoCAD and provide you the CAD files in STEP format?
Please extend the contest period for two more weeks. This is enough time to bring you more designs.
Set it prepaid and blind designs please!
Prepaid and Blind Please
Can the model be made in other CAD software say SOLIDWORKS or Inventor, or is it Strictly AutoCAD 2026?
Hi, Prepaid and Blind Please
Also Blind
Hello,We request you to make this contest pre funded.Thank you

Design the coolest penis rings
We already have a successful line of vibrating penis rings, to get an idea visit http://www.ovo.de/en/category/rings.
The new line will be different, though, ovo is a line created with a white, clean, mainstream concept, the new line will be branded LooP.
"LooP Maximum Performance"will be inspired in sports and concept cars, men worldwide appeal very well to sports cars and performance is always related to them, therefore, sexual performance can be inspired in sports cars.
Designers need to take the following into account:
1. Vibrating penis rings must meet their promise, they deliver orgasms by stimulating both, men and women during intercourse, designers must think of the ergonomics of sex, the ring constrains the flow of blood to the penis but the part that holds the motor serves a double purpose, it indirectly stimulates men and directly stimulates the clitoris, so successful designs must consider an elevation of the part that holds the motor.
2. I envision these rings as a fusion between the ring and a sports car, the front of the "car" is the ring and the hood holds the motor, the elevation that will get in contact with the clitoris is the "windshield" and the hood, the vibration from the motor will diffuse to the "windshield" and the "hood" the back of the ring is just pure design.
2. The material is medical grade silicone as it is stretchy and tissue safe, this also means the following constrains: Silicone is matt finished, attaining a glossy color is somewhat difficult but not impossible, there should not be too many elements in the ring as these rings perform in a "wet" environment, bacteria can get inside the joints of different layers.
3. I want 16 different rings, each of them inspired in a sports or concept car, we will have suggestive names for them like "Loop Stealth", "LooP M3", "LooP Viper", etc.
Finally, Have fun, I think it's an amazing project!!
PS. Attached is our number one selling penis ring from the current line, that will give you an idea on size, weight and motor positioning.
Also, I have attached a preliminary logo, the symbol you see is the celtic symbol of virility which could nicely be used in the rings the same way sports car have a symbol on the hood.
Enclosure design for a building automation product
Our company is looking for enclosure designs for a set of 3 PCB modules which can connect together to form one single product. Our chosen manufacturer uses folded plastic sheet, although design ideas do not need to be limited to this process.
The main board can feature as a standalone product but in many cases will be connected with the HV and I/O submodule boards, in which case they need to form a single product. There should be a lock-in mechanism on the side panels of the main enclosure to allow connection with HV board and I/O board. The Main board will have an LED panel illuminating the company logo (which will change colours based on the product status). Each individual enclosure should be DIN rail mountable. The top and bottom inputs and outputs modules on each board should be exposed so that appropriate connections can be made without opening the box. The way the three modules assemble together into one product should be similar to this:

Beyond the technical specifications we are looking for a fresh design to take away the feel of an industrial product and make this looks more like a consumer product. We are looking for something sleek and fresh with the look and feel of a quality product.
Hotel Butler Robot
I am looking for an industrial design of a hotel butler robot with manufacturing specification. I would like an interchangeable face module - 1 with the mascot as the face, another with a screen as the face.
Additionally the robot needs to have an interchangeable stand to make it taller like the Double ipad stand.
http://www.doublerobotics.com/
Here are some of the specs the robot needs to possess so you can factor it into the design:
Size: 56 x 35 x 35 cm
Weight: 5-8kg with the majority of the weight at the bottom of the robot
Exterior Components:
• Rechargeable battery pad/station
Interchangeable Modules:
• Butler face head
• Screen face head
• Stand (Double Like) to extend height http://www.doublerobotics.com/
Internal Component:
• 1080HD w night vision camera
• 2W speaker with 22mm diaphragm
• 1 microphone
• 1HDMI output
• 1USB output
• 1SD card slot
• Range finder sensors
• Ground detection sensors
• Object Detection sensors
• 4 motors feedback control
• Head rotation 2 Axes: 1st +/- 90°, 2nd +80°/-60°
• Base Movement 360° (2 drive wheels, 3rd support wheel)
• Electrical Rechargeable Battery
• Wifi & SIM Card
Deliverable:
1) Butler Robot looking mostly like the attached mascot with an interchangeable screen module and rechargeable pad design
2) Adjustable height stand – see Double for reference
3) Video showing its movement and interchangeable module in order to show to the client
4) Manufacturing specifications
Circular LED light with stand
Slimline ring light
light weight stand
Easy to move around
bracket for phone/device
must be able to be broken down into bag
Light control dimmer - similar to that of the GLAMCOR LIGHT (warm and cool functions)
