Sunscreen Alert Timer Design
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
someone who could make this blueprint
Purpose: Create a timer that sticks to the outside of a sunscreen bottle or sachet to remind users to reapply sunscreen after a specific amount of time (typically 2 hours).
Features:
A timer with audible or visual cues.
Easy attachment to different surfaces (bottles, sachets).
Water-resistant, durable design.
2. Components
Timer Module: A small electronic timer that can count down from a set period (e.g., 2 hours). It should be simple to reset or preset for multiple use cases.
Battery: Small battery (coin cell, CR2032) for compactness.
Adhesive Layer: Strong yet removable adhesive that can stick to plastic or fabric (non-permanent for easy removal and repositioning).
Button for Activation: A small, easy-to-press button for starting or stopping the timer.
Alert Mechanism: Either a vibration motor or a small buzzer to alert the user when the time is up.
Waterproof Housing: A protective casing for the components to ensure they can withstand exposure to water and sunscreen.
3. Design & Dimensions
Size: The timer should be compact enough to fit within the standard size range of sunscreen bottles or sachets.A reasonable dimension could be around 4 cm x 4 cm x 1 cm (L x W x H).
Shape: Square or circular design, with a slight curve to match the shape of the bottle or sachet it will be attached to.
Display: A small LED or LCD screen to show the time remaining or a simple set of lights to indicate the status (active, countdown, finished).
4. Functionality
User Interface:
Start/Stop Button: Simple, user-friendly button. When pressed, it starts the timer.
Timer Reset: The timer should be easily reset after the alarm goes off (a second press of the button or a long press).
Timer Logic:
The timer will count down from 2 hours (or preset time).
A small display will show the countdown in minutes.
Once the timer reaches zero, a buzzer or vibration will notify the user.
Adhesive:
Use a 3M removable adhesive or similar, which sticks firmly but can be removed without leaving residue.
The adhesive should be waterproof to prevent failure in humid or wet conditions.
