DESIGNHELP - BIO FEEDBACK
Design, MA diploma project
Annotation
The thesis deals with the design of a medical device that serves to improve the diagnosis and treatment of patients at risk of cardiovascular diseases. Here, the author combines biomedical technology and jewellery work and proposes a solution by designing a glass bracelet that allows the wearer to have continuous prevention. An important goal of this project is to try to improve patients' attitudes towards wearing medical devices in public by eliminating the negative emotions that wearers may feel. The thesis is structured in several parts, where the first part summarizes the theoretical introduction and the literature search that preceded the design itself, then deals with the formulation of the vision and continues through the description of the design process to the final design. The thesis also includes the practical design of the device and short-term user testing, which focused on ergonomics and ease of use.
