AirBuddy

From a distance, AirBuddy resembles a miniature inflatable boat - a marine motive that creates emotional connection with the main customer segment, the boaters.

Alvix

Alvix is a multifunctional drone designed for people who practice extreme sports alone. The cylinder-shaped body is transformable and holds two axes that extend and store the propellers. The propellers are pulled out for flight and pushed in for compact carrying in a pack, while the closed body protects the machinery from impact. Alvix connects to a smartwatch and a smartphone, tracks the user automatically and accepts basic commands. A safety system makes the drone ring and shine when danger is detected, so rescue can be faster.

Smart Football Vest

Smart Football Vest is a sensor vest designed to protect the health of football players during training and matches. The vest is worn under the football shirt and is made of a very thin, soft fabric.

The collected data forms an analysis report, and a linked mobile application sends a voice alert to coaching and medical staff when the readings show risk. A small stabilized camera on the chest records video from the first-person view.
