Samsung Galaxy S6 Dash Mount

thingiverse

Human: Custom dash mount for Samsung Galaxy S6 users. This innovative holder functions as a standalone cell phone mount and smart dash mounting system. By integrating an NFC tag into the square slot, drivers can instantly launch apps and settings when their phone is placed in the mount. In my case, it launches Drivemode, a user-friendly app that simplifies phone operation without requiring visual attention. The purpose of this dash mount is to reduce distracted driving risks. Note that the design only fits the phone itself, not a phone with a case, due to NFC tag functionality requirements.

Print Settings Printer Brand: Printrbot Printer: Simple Black Rafts: No Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 30% Notes: When printing this design, ensure you use supports for structural integrity. I used 30% infill but consider using less to speed up print time if necessary. Post-Printing Assembly A 1/4-20 bolt secures the base and arm together. The arm is bonded to the phone holder using super glue or solvent welding. To facilitate printing, the arm and holder were designed as separate pieces due to a four-inch print bed limitation. Finally, attach the base of the dash mount to your vehicle using an adhesive of your choice, such as adhesive tabs or double-sided tape.
