Contest Ended, Winner(s) have been selected.
Description:
An alternative to picking up dog dropping with plastic bags.A cheap, easy to build, bio-degradeable design.
It should, with a minimum of moving parts, (ideally 1-2 piece cardboard structure), pick up and enclose droppings. Should also include built in handle (reasonably distanced from holding section)
Simplicity is key. As will need to be able to produce cheaply in large volumes.
MUST BE MASS PRODUCEABLE for cost in the region of $1-2.
Wants:
Fitness for task combined with simplicity of design.
Don't Wants:
Complex designs, impossible to produce cheaplyOver simply designs that do not enclose droppings....or pick them up at distance of at least 3-4 inches from hand to droppings.
Software:
- Any that non-designer can read

#19 Poopholder2
by Ram Mohan Kartha
I made this design considering quality as well as easier productivity, could be made by using paper or card board. The dimensions i have given are based on cardboard of thickness 1 mm. The advantage is that it could be made from a single piece of cardboard making your need of producing it in 1-2 $ possible. It needs sticking tape at 2 positions that also have bee shown in the pdf file provided. I can upload the orginal model file in any format if you need
Hope you will like my work ....Thank you

#20 poo bag
by DaBu
This is a model I created myself from a A4 sheet of cardboard and a piece of rope. I thought that this is the only way to approach your problem: a 3d model wouldn't be as convincing. If you think I might have something here (if you like the design) I can work on it to improve functionality (dimensions, ease of operating, etc ..) and i'll provide you the CAD drawing for cutout and crease.

Discussion
can it be a fusion of plastic and card board where the poop is collected in the cardboard part and only that part is thrown away after use. The plastic part is used again.....????
Hi Jnatzic
Would be a one-time product
>Bio-Degradeable is important...why I think Cardboard / paper best.
>Easy to assemble...perhaps sold 'collapsed'. And user 'pops' open to use. easier to build / transport

>I think it is important that it is not too large when assembled and used, as users will want to throw away in bins made for dog droppings (they are not that large)
>
>Needs to be reasonable 'air tight' so doesn't smell too much on the way to the dustbin.
>
>I was imagining something that maybe had a cardboard box / tube with two cardboard handles that could be dropped over dropping, then the handles pulled to close bottom of box and scoop at the same time.

I feel the crux of this project is to get a really functional design that is not too complex to mass-produce at around $1

Will this be a one-time use tool or will it include doggy bags or something that makes it reusable?

iPad Accessory
To create a sun visor that would fit an iPad Air 2 and the newest Pro 9.7" model. It would need to attach to the magnetic system (so that it would not fall off during windy days). And be very aesthetically pleasing. All buttons and camera should be able to be accesses when the visor is mounted.
Air Freshener Plastic Bottle Design
We are seeking a CAP and bottle design for an AIR FRESHENER product for females. We are seeking a cute unique bottle design in which we can use to make our own custom mold. Attached is additional information of the direction.
The ROBERT project
We would like a fresh set of eyes on our device ROBERT, a rehabilitation robot that release healthcare workers of heavy and continuous lifting which can cause physical strain and pain in the back, loin, wrists and shoulders. We aim to optimise rehabilitation through more frequently and prolonged exercises which can result in fewer complications and a faster retrieval of a patient’s strength. See more at www.myrobert.com.
The current look is a mixture of many components comming together which does not result in a uniform design. Further we whish to incorporate a new robot arm, made by the company KUKA, the LBR iiwa version, https://www.kuka.com/en-de/products/robot-systems/industrial-robots/lbr-iiwa. This will later come in a MEDtech version, similar in use but in white and with a small change to the interface base. CAD data of the industrial version can be used for this design, change is that wiring will come out of the bottom of the medtech version and not the sides like the industrial version, so completely round in base instead of the small square thing on the side of the industrial version (so no visible wires). The industrial version can be downloaded here: https://www.kuka.com/en-de/services/downloads. It is the "LBR iiwa 14 R820" found under division "KUKA Robotics".

Digital LCD Name Tag for wine glass
We are developing a digital “Name Tag” (LCD screen) for wine glasses that will communicate with a mobile app. so people will be able to communicate with the tag via their smartphone and find their glass in case they can’t tell which wine glass is theirs...etc.
We are looking for few design concept options for a prototype 3D design that we will print.
