Electronic kitchen paper dispenser: prototype

Prototype of a kitchen paper dispenser with an open structure, a side sensor and four illuminated front controls to handle the roll.

Home and furniture Startup $10,000 – $25,000 3 – 4 months

The price includes design, functional prototyping, product testing and optimization.

Why design an electronic kitchen paper dispenser?

1

Handling without mess

A side sensor and dedicated controls avoid touching the roll with dirty hands.

2

Portion control

The front controls let users choose how and when paper is delivered.

3

Visible status

Lighting over the roll shows at a glance that the unit is active.

4

Electronics built into the product

Mechanism, electronics and housing are designed as a single product.

“A kitchen dispenser is used with dirty hands and in a hurry, so sensor, controls and mechanics have to work without thinking. Integrating everything into a single product was the challenge. If we could do this, we can surely do your idea.”
