Smart desktop and bedside phone dock
Reference figures from Anvol's engineers for a similar build: development $3,000–30,000, development time 7 days to 3 months. A product concept for a smartphone-centred desk or bedside dock: a retro-inspired, minimal housing that can carry wired or wireless charging, a clock display, Bluetooth audio, NFC or other sensors, and accessories. The same project type runs from mechanical design only (industrial and structural design, enclosure and finish) up to full electronics integration with charging, NFC, Bluetooth, a speaker and microphone, then prototypes and a DFM handover.
