The Circa alarm clock is a Kickstarter project designed to help you wake up and fall asleep without any distractions. No more restless nights due to your smartphone. The final design is by Robert Bronwasser.<\/p>\n

Challenge<\/h2>\n

Circa required help with the technical side of their alarm clock. We acted as an external development partner and coordinated the Kickstarter design, engineering, and prototype development.<\/span><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.2″ text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”1.5em” header_2_text_color=”#303030″ max_width=”450px” max_width_tablet=”100%” max_width_phone=”100%” max_width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

Approach<\/h2>\n

Using our integrated development process, we quickly created prototypes. Because we solved important production issues early, the final engineering phase after funding was short.<\/p>\n

Result<\/h2>\n

The Circa alarm clock uses a breathing assistant and soothing sounds to help you fall asleep. The included sleep sensor placed under your mattress helps you wake up at just the right moment.<\/p>\n

\n
\u201cSLIMDESIGN has been a great support for our project. Their work on the industrialization of CIRCA was very professional and efficient, and with their extensive network, we were able to reduce the tooling and production cost quite a lot. <\/em><\/h6>\n
It was a pleasure to work with them and I can recommend them highly. Especially if you are looking for a partner to make your Kickstarter idea reality.\u201d<\/em><\/h6>\n<\/blockquote>\n
