Project Specification

Objective

The main reason for this product is to reduce the time consumption of equipment installation, tile and flooring placement, and furniture leveling.

The problem occurs mostly in professional construction settings.

• Installation of tiles requires leveling using screws placed at the meeting points of the tiles (usually at the meeting place of the corners of four square tiles)
• In order to ensure the tiles are level, a manual leveling to occur using a liquid bubble level and manual guess and check
• This takes a lot of time when compared with a potential automatic process

Background

It can be a difficult experience balancing walls, floors, and furniture without overusing material and overspending both time and money, respectively. The majority of people face this problem while remodeling their homes, apartments, or offices. A SmartScrew is a smart tool that would be handy in any household as well as any construction related businesses.

The potential consumer of a SmartScrew would be any tool user whose focus is on installing leveled floor, cabinet alignments, or simply anywhere the leveling is needed. The customer may use his or her own installation techniques in order to fulfill an assignment by using a SmartScrew, since it should be user friendly and versatile.

Expected results

It is expected for the SmartScrew to terminate twisting the screws anywhere it is necessary and automatically shut-off when the screw reaches a desired height relative to a laser leveler. A target light sensor will be mounted on the screw driver and will detect a leveling laser.
