BANGLE DIGITAL JEWELLARY
THE CHALLENGE
Jewellery is worn for many
reasons to feel good, to impress others, for aesthetics, or as a symbol of
affection or commitment to loved ones. Aesthetics jewellery portrays many meanings
but has very little practical purpose. This is why we challenged ourselves to
design a digital product, that has the aesthetics of jewellery whilst being a
personal assistant displaying messages, notifications etc.
THE RESULT
A perfect digital companion
that will keep you up to date with customised notifications, all whilst
adapting to your mood and outfits.
DESIGN CONCEPT
Clean simple and seamless was
the goal of the physical bangle design. A seamless connection between each end
of the flexible OLED screen would allow information, interaction and design to
flow around the entire device
TWO SIZES FITS ALL
Three sizes of magnetic
spacers would accompany the bangle for a level of adjustable to suit each
wearer. Most women’s wrists are within the range of small to medium(130-200mm)
and for men’s it ranges within medium to large (160-210). The size varies from small
(8mm), medium (6mm) and large (4mm).
HEALTH & FITNESS
A fitness tracker is the best
way to monitor your health and activity without having to pay too much
attention to it. It can constantly measure your vitals, quality of sleep and
step count effortlessly and accurately.
JEWELLERY NOTIFICATION
Haptic vibration along with
interaction jewellery notifications keeps you on target to achieve your daily
goals. Notification would appear and interact with the displayed jewellery
style.
EAGAGING
Playful
apps keep you engaged and focused on your wellbeing
DISPLAY
Bangle allows information to be displayed around
the entire circumference. You can drag information around surface or simple
flip your wrist to display information in landscape format.
KEEP IT PERSONAL
A quick glance let’s you
check caller ID’s, scan through notification, emails and messages. Notification
information is displayed on the underside of the wrist for a more ergonomic
feel. This viewing position also keeps the visible information more personal.
PAY IN STYLE
The bangle allows you to pay
bills without taking the debit/credit card or mobile to pay. Just waving the
bangle over the machine will do the job.
STYLE YOUR WAY
Visual distraction jewellery
would be tailored to match or reflect apps and functions you use throughout
your day. Distinctive visual feedback allows for greater engagement and
personality through the daily tasks are important to you.
Digital jewellery designs
would be available to download so that you’ll always match your mood and
outfit.
