Project Overview
A handheld medical device designed to measure glucose levels through breath, developed as a compact, non-invasive alternative for home use.
The Challenge
• Translate a complex internal system into a clear and intuitive product
• Integrate airflow, sensor, and electronics within a handheld form
• Define a user interaction that is simple and repeatable
• Balance medical credibility with a more approachable product language
• Align design decisions with real-world constraints
My Role & Contribution
• Lead Industrial Designer, responsible for overall product direction
• Defined form, proportion, and product architecture
• Designed user interaction: breath → measure → display
• Developed 3D CAD with internal layout integration (sensor, airflow)
• Led CMF, UI, and physical interface design
Design Approach
• Developed a compact form driven by internal function
• Focused on ergonomics and stability during interaction
• Balanced precision with a consumer-friendly design language
Development
• Iterated form and proportion based on internal constraints
• Integrated airflow path and component layout
• Refined surface, transitions, and detailing for production
• Aligned design with assembly and manufacturing feasibility
Outcome
A production-ready medical device with resolved form, interaction, and system integration, currently in production.
