SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES
The customer came to Pipeline with an idea for a new phone case that would hold medication and organize it in compartments to help users keep track of what to take and when to take it. Pipeline developed a sliding lock mechanism and incorporated it into the designs to prevent the medication from being unintentionally removed.
Once the designs were finished, Pipeline facilitated pre-production cast prototypes through overseas partners that looked and performed like the production units would, including special finishes like soft touch paint and rubber overmolded features.
