Job description
I am looking for a contractor to design and manufacture an elegant, physical wired or wireless button for turning a computer on and off in a golf simulator. The project concerns a short series of devices for commercial use (simulator rooms).
Functional Requirements:
-Physical on/off button for a computer
-The button should act like a "Power SW" – i.e., momentarily shorting the motherboard pins to power the PC on or off.
-Wired or wireless communication with a module connected to the computer (e.g., ESP32 WiFi/Bluetooth).
- Dedicated receiver module connected to the computer
- Simple installation: socket at the back of the computer (e.g., 3.5mm jack, USB, etc.) + 2-pin output to the motherboard (POWER SW).
- Possibility to work in parallel with the case's factory button.
Optional features (welcome):
-Ability to turn on the computer via WiFi network / mobile app (e.g., local web page or Blynk app).
-Bluetooth as an alternative communication method.
- Additional mobile-use button (touch or physical).
Design & Physical Requirements:
-Premium design – golf theme + SIM GOLF logo (to be provided)
-Elegant enclosure – can be 3D printed, made of aluminum, or other durable material
-Preferred color: dark, with LED backlighting (e.g., around the button)
-Button dimensions:Base: approx. 10x10 cm, Height: any – proportional and elegant
Stability:
-Can be placed on a desk or wall-mounted (e.g., mounting holes)
-Rubber feet to prevent slipping
-LED Lighting:
- Must be visible in a dark room – can be a subtle glow or halo light around the button
Additional Notes:
- Small production series required (e.g., 3–10 units initially)
- I expect a complete, ready-to-use set:
Ready-to-connect buttons
Computer module (with relay)
Code (if programming is required)
Simple installation and usage manual
