Ok so I am studying business for my undergraduate degree and I taught myself industrial design because that is what I love. I picked up Rhino and V-Ray and Ive designed many of products for competitions and for clients: Aiden-kashi.com
I really want to win awards because I don't have a degree in Industrial Design. I already won a few, but the deadline for the Red Dot Concept Design award is coming up soon. I designed this smoke detector for fun and was wondering if it is worth submitting. Or, if I should change something about the design. I am asking because it costs a few hundred dollars to submit a design for the Red Dot and if it doesn't stand a chance, I will just save that money.
Critique: Industrial design is wasteful and pointless. There are already a half-dozen smoke detectors out there that do what this does. Is it technologically superior (new method of detecting smoke?) or just a fancy skin on the same old thing?
... at least it isn't a chair though.

The idea is that its a wifi smoke detector that connects to your phone. You would be alerted of smoke/co from anywhere.. Low battery.. faulty sensor... easier to conduct tests.
There are only two companies that offer this and they both price their devices over $120. But Red Dot is a design award

I need critique on my industrial design.
