A few months ago, Scott Yu showcased a phone dock inspired by Dieter Rams' iconic DN40 digital clock.

That got me inspired to create my own version, featuring a wireless charger from IKEA. The charger is integrated into a panel that slides into a slot within the dock's body. Before assembling, the cable is routed through a hole in the back for a clean and functional setup.

Printed with Prusament PLA Galaxy Black & Prusament PETG Orange.

To top it off, I even developed my own Android docking app — because, why not? :D

Very cool! Do you have the screen on for the entire night? Do you worry about burn in?

[–] seasick@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Yes, the screen is on until fully loaded. I've added a burn in prevention to my docking app, which just moves the clock from left to right and back over time.
