RESEARCH ABSTRACT: We've done a lot of research on "How can we improve the quality of life in interiors." Our goal is to make high-tech furniture to improve the experience of the people in the room. Our team loves brainstorming to create unique furniture. In order to reach the final design of Sense hanger, we went through various varieties of hangers, but the results of the samples showed that the best option is to be in a natural style.
CHALLENGE: We faced different design challenges, such as how to disassemble with bare hands and gather in a small, easy-to-carry package. It was a real challenge to fit all the electronics and sensors into the narrow tube of the hanger. The making of the wooden elements was also a real success. Another laborious moment is the preparation of a mobile application that gives feedback to the user.
