Brief

Could we create the feeling of possessing and controlling someone else’s body? BB Studio were invited to take an existing, critically-acclaimed demo project by Royal College of Art graduate Yifei Chai and explore more wearable, and scalable possibilities. We conducted use-case games, materials research and interaction design prototypes and developed strategies to market. This culminated in a presentation at global meeting point, Tech Crunch in London in 2015.

Creative Process

Bushra Burge, as the product owner, worked closely and collaboratively with a team of engineers, game designers and coders to innovate this wearable haptic piece into a more commercial product.
