About
Meet the TwistekCase
We took the normal everyday smartphone case and made it even smarter. That's why it's called the multi-purpose smartcase! The 360º dual axis rotating hinge allows you to manipulate the TwistekCase. Life changes....and so must your phone case. The purpose of TwistekCase is to be versatile so you and your phone can be too!

Prototype Evolution
The whole experience has been a work in progress. Our first prototype, we made in the basement. Then, working closely with an engineering team from Western Carolina University's Center for Rapid Product Realization, followed by working closely with E.H. Design, a local engineer; we turned our basement model and entire concept into a sleeker, lightweight model and are excited for the upcoming final revisions!

THE PROTOTYPES:

THE TEAM

OUR STORY

Risks and challenges
MANUFACTURING: We have worked diligently to prepare for this Kickstarter campaign! To limit risks, we are working with an experienced manufacturing broker with a reputation for quality. There is always a chance that multiple unexpected setbacks will happen. We've invested significant ground work in contingency plans should these types of challenges arise.
PRODUCT ADJUSTMENTS: As the TwistekCase moves closer to production ready, there will likely be some minor improvement tweaks to the final design. Therefore pre-production prototypes will again need to be produced for this fun filled necessary process. Some of you may actually take part in this. We are sincerely excited to listen to this feedback.
FULFILLMENT: Our delivery timeline accounts for unsuspected delays. If there are any changes to TwistekCase, we will communicate these changes to our contributors.
Challenges will be addressed by the TwistekCase team. With our combined knowledge, fortitude, and external expertise, we will overcome any obstacle that may present itself.
