Home > Shortlisted > #104775




DESIGN DETAILS
DESIGN NAME:
Blink

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Home Medical Device

INSPIRATION:
Blink was designed to be used at home by patients to measure their vital signs and perform basic medical tests. It guides users through the process of collecting data and reporting it to their physician. It also enables physicians to provide feedback to patients, enhancing the doctor-patient relationship. Blink empowers self-care, encouraging users to be more proactive with their health. By producing reliable data, it also enhances the diagnosing process and saves time, money and energy.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Blink is a smart monitoring device that shifts the experience of performing medical tests from long lines and long waits in hospitals to a simple and unobtrusive task undertaken in the comfort and convenience of home. In the current healthcare system, a great deal of time, energy and money is expended to receive detailed health information. Blink aims to change that.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
Through its straightforward, compact design, Blink measures blood pressure, body temperature and can be used to perform blood, urine and saliva tests. With the easy-to-use interface and the ability to set up profiles, multiple family members can use the same device. It is simple, userfriendly, multifunctional and hygienic.

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
The project started in February 2016 in Ankara and finished in June 2016, was exhibited in Science at Home Exhibition in Ankara, Turkey Design Week Exhibition in Istanbul and Global Grad Show, Design Week in Dubai

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:

SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES:
200 mm x 130 mm x 160 mm

TAGS:

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
My original impetus for the idea was to empower the user to be more proactive about his health rather than being reactive. In order to increase the quality of healthcare, I tried to find alternative solutions for better and healthier communication between the patient and the physician. I have visited biochemical labs of hospitals to decide the best vitals for home tests. I had a chance to speak with physicians and biochemists and discuss my project aim. After the design process, I did interviews and user testing with end-users for seamless user experience.

CHALLENGE:
One of the design challenges was to determine the product’s core elements and to organize them in the most accessible and compact way. Hygiene, guidance, and communication were the main considerations. The device also had to be suitable for home use and guide the user through each stage of use.
