The Problem.
Approximately 60% of travelers are overweight. The biggest cause is not to know how much is required for their trips which leads to stressing and not being able to find the items they have packed
The goal.
Create a bag-tag thats doesn't only help you pack and find your items but also weigh and track your bags during your journey
Tools used.
Sketch, InVision, Principle, Solidworks, Keyshot, Illustrator, Photoshop.
Timeline.
This was my Senior project which lasted for 20 weeks. I had to do the concepting, research, ideation etc. and then jump into the production part. The final product was a 3D printed version of the bag-tag, with a vision video and a working mobile prototype.

ideation
After researching, Ideation is the phase which helped me brainstorm my ideas and come up with a solution.
Personas
Targeted different markets and conducted more research, I could immediately see the similar problem spaces.
