Please note no commercial or public use of this design is allowed. UPDATE: Proud to have been chosen a finalist for this years Extreme Redesign Secondary competition ! Great experience and if possible would love to take part next year ! This was my first ever 3D Printed project ! Hygiene ! Nowadays, this word is a part of our everyday life, especially with recent implications, but despite all of the advice not enough is being done for reducing contact with frequently touched objects . COVID-19 is an example of an easily spreadable disease which can often linger on objects (fomites) . Commonly touched objects can pose health risks and can increase the transmission . An example of a commonly interacted object is door handles, which users commonly make direct contact to open. For many this has been a challenge, from using elbows to legs, COVID-19 has changed our interactions with everyday objects. There are solutions on the market which claim to open doors and press buttons. However, there are no solutions which have all the necessary features, forcing many to carry multiple devices with them which can be a hassle at the very least. The intended target market for the solution includes children up until older adults, who need an effective solution to interact with commonly interacted objects, including and not limited to: handle, knobs, touchscreens, buttons. They require an affordable, functional and aesthetic product which has a small form factor for easy portability. My solution is an innovative and unique design with a sleek form factor which is able to open many door handles and even knobs ! It also acts as a stylus for touchscreen devices and can be used to press any buttons. Through multiple iterations, FEA analysis (static stress and mass reduction) my final design is a functional solution which addresses the needs of the consumer,offering a competitive solution. The design has been optimised to be 3D printed via FDM technology, and is available as a single part to reduce tolerance uncertainty. For full details remember to visit the attached powerpoint. Dimensions: 119.431mm x 66mm x 18mm Filament: PLA 40.26g (Works with touchscreens in grocery shops) If usage with touchscreens of phones conductive PLA should be used PET-G is also a better option so if possi...
