Looking for a developer to help make smart jewelry box

Hello, I am assisting a client who is looking to create a custom jewelry box with specific smart features. We are interested in developing a product similar to a "tool control cabinet" but designed for jewelry tracking. I looked into seeing if a product like this exists, but unfortunately, it does not. Hopefully, we can find someone to help us make one!

Project Overview:
We are looking to create a small, elegant jewelry box that can be placed on a sink or vanity. The box should have designated slots for 4 rings, 4 pairs of earrings, and 4 necklaces. Primarily it will be used to track the client’s wife’s wedding ring.

The primary goal is to integrate technology that can sense whether a piece of jewelry is in its designated spot. If an item is not returned by a specific time (e.g., 11 PM), the system should automatically send an alert via text or email. We are considering various sensing technologies such as RFID or light sensors to achieve this functionality. Thinking light sensors might be the best since RFID would be annoying to wear on a daily basis.

Key Requirements:
Size and Design: The box should be compact, with foam inserts that are custom-fitted to hold the jewelry securely.
Sensing Technology: The system should detect the presence or absence of each item and trigger an alert if an item is missing.
Alert System: The ability to send text or email notifications if an item is not returned by the specified time.

If you think you can help or have any questions please reach out!

Hi Savannah,
Sounds like an interesting project. I've actually worked on a few similar projects for clients in the past, especially with smart home integrations.
I think your idea of using light sensors is a great approach for this type of application.
I'd be happy to discuss some potential solutions and how we could bring this idea to life.
