In 2016 MotoMods and Indiegogo launched "Transform the SmartPhone 2016" contest, in which Motorola and Indiegogo helped you to create a custom, snap on, add on for the Motorola Z family of phones.
Current Mods include Amazon Alexa Speaker set, a Projector, a high end camera, Sound Boost speaker set, wireless charging or just a supersized battery pack.
Build The Unexpected
Can you create a moto mod that helps people discover new ways to connect, work and entertain?
Last year, we reimagined what a smartphone can do with moto mods that snap on to turn the moto z into a super-zoom camera, boombox, projector—you name it. The Keyboard Mod was among those invented and this year, we’re bringing it to stores. Now it’s your turn to get in front of millions of Indiegogo backers, showcase your product at Motorola HQ in Chicago and boost your business.
This year the competition returns!
If you want to enter "Transform the Smartphone 2018", modify your Moto Z or develop a product to take to market, we stock the Development kit, Adapter Board and even perf' board... for your mobile phone. Living in the future sure is crazy!

| The Moto Mods Development Kit (MDK) abstracts complex areas of the Moto Mod architecture so you can focus on your design, create a prototype and refine your concepts quickly and efficiently. | The Perforated Board is the primary vehicle for developing of your MDK Project (included with the MDK). This is a blank slate for soldering your own components in place. | The HAT Adapter Board is Raspberry Pi HAT compatible and allows the use of commercially available HATs. It includes the 40-pin header, camera, and display connectors. |
