Phone Holder for Cortisol Test Strips

Miscellaneous

A 3D-printable threaded phone clamp designed to hold a cortisol test strip in front of the camera for a TSA engineering project.

I designed this phone holder for the TSA 2024 Engineering Design event. It positions a cortisol test strip in front of a smartphone camera, bringing the phone and sample into one fixture.

The design uses a threaded clamp to secure the phone and a dedicated strip mount to control the sample’s position relative to the camera. The goal was to make that alignment repeatable, while keeping the holder practical to manufacture with 3D printing.
