MagPill

VSS water bottle - Partnered with Camelbak

Type: Student Term Project
Time: 8 weeks
Team: Individual
Tools: product family ideation, visualization, CMF, prototyping, 3D modeling (rhino, fusion 360)

Opportunity:

Design a concept VSS water bottle that reflects Camelbaks design language, while unlocking a new customer.

I started by researching Camelbak products, then explored designs for various environments where medication is needed, and narrowed down to everyday consumers. 
How can the function/use of the idea translate to the form?

Using magnets to simplify attachment points for consumers. Threads over living hinges to ensure pills do not fall out.

How to implement ergonomic grip into the design language? Making the cap functional for as many grip strengths.

Using modular mockups to find the appropriate height for the bottle.

What if the consumer needs their medication, but cannot/do not want to bring their bottle?

How to use the MagPill container (with prototypes)

How to encourage & remind the consumer to take their medication, through CMF?
