Project scope
- What is the main goal for this project?
-
We are an early-stage startup focused on developing wearable technologies for beauty, currently looking to launch two products: (1) a customizable necklace and (2) press-on nails with LEDs powered through RFID.
Customizable eInk necklace:
We have developed a basic PCB prototype that requires further optimization. Students will receive all the documentation from the current prototype and will be asked to optimize the system so it can receive the images through NFC at a much faster rate.
LED press-on nails powered with RFID:
We are looking to develop active RFID bracelets that can light up the NFC-powered LEDs on our press-on nails. The bracelets would have an on/off/intermittent mode and a rechargeable battery. The range of the RFID should be sufficient to reach the fingernails. Alternative versions to the bracelets, such as rings, can be considered based on a study of the range and power of the RFID signal.
* NDA's and waivers will be required from the interns undertaking this project.
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
The final deliverables should take the form of a final report and presentation including:
- The reasoning behind the technologies chosen
- Test plans for the systems
- Simulations of the proposed systems
- Modeling of the systems
- A basic prototype of the systems
