Reading into the survey what the product purpose is (a radio remote control link for trailer lights), as a professional design engineer, I'd avoid it like the plague if it were offered to me as an option or add on!
Radio links are notoriously fickle (think of Bluetooth!!!!!), and the hardwired plug/socket is well proven and no great inconvenience, it also has the capacity to be fixed by the majority of vaguely handy people should it be troublesome, a faulty wireless link is a nightmare that even a fully equipped professional technician would likely spend a while fault-finding and fixing, no doubt with relatively expensive components too!
The old adage of 'if it ain't broke don't fix it' is rattling around in my head
Sorry davidh1996 to rain on your parade, full marks for innovative thought, but can't help but see it as an unnecessary/undesirable product. Don't take criticism to heart, as a professional who has headed design depts and been an independent consultant for decades, 'most' innovation ends up having no future, get used to it as it goes with the job, just learn and move on. As a technical exercise for your uni work it's a perfectly valid 'development' you are going through, any designer of any worth must always have one eye on dead ends and even total failure as a possibility. I wish you well.
