I.DOT

MISSION

Redesign the I.DOT to be on brand.

Improve the ease of manufacturing and assembly. Reduce the space required in the lab.

Improve the usability and user experience.

METHOD

Interviews with all types of stakeholders, such as users, manufacturers and assembly line workers, to understand the issues and opportunities in their respective areas.

Multiple rounds of both sub-system and full-scale prototypes to test and verify all design choices.

OUTCOME

A product design that is on brand, easier to manufacture and easier to assemble.
