adapter for wearable camera design
industrial design | security product design | 3D pictures
TRUWITNESS FLIR clip counterbalance. In principle, you would define one of the correlations in the group of four correlations that connect to the wearing camera. When you choose to put the camera on the glasses then on the other side need a contra, so that the glasses will not go sideways. In the picture below you can see one of these: The product consists of a metal weight, a combination of aluminum with tungsten, a plastic clip and a soothing sponge.
industrial design | security product developing | 3D prints
At the beginning of developing the wearable camera adapter for FLIR, our studio was asked to find where the camera could be connected, what the advantages were in each way, and how the connection was made. With advanced 3D prints for models, we reached for conclusions that enabled us to understand how the product can be attached, for example, to the uniform lapel or glasses. All in all, the process of developing these wearable products included a lot of 3D prints that simulate the product
product design | security product developing | sketches
At the beginning of the product design process there is a session of sketches and brainstorming in the product design studio. The basic, advanced, simple and sophisticated ideas undergo a transition to paper. It is the basis of any winning product design. In sketches, for example, we can express the idea of a sophisticated mechanism in the clearest way possible, even before the transition to computer drawing and mechanical design. The process of sketching must be fast and clear, and this requires experience.
product design | plastic product design | design sketches
Sketches on paper and a brainstorming process. Countless ideas on how to position and coordinate the counterbalance because it was decided that the mobile camera could also be a wearable product on glasses. Too much weight and the product will burden the user and interfere with operation. Little weight will not do the job. The initial response to the problems included in developing such a product can be seen in the picture.
industrial design | plastic product design | weight measurments
In order to choose the right materials in relation to the volume of the small product that we were required to design, weight measurements were made. weights that were later worn on the glasses and therefore we decided over the weight of the counterweight adapter. You can see that beauty is still not the strong side in the development stage ... not ours .. the product's product design | wearable product design | mechanical design
The adapters for wearing TRUWITNESS FLIR camera are actually plastic parts systems that contain springs, inserts, screws and discs. A combination of sophistication and simplicity. Each plastic part is carefully designed according to the laws of plastic injection. No limitation was a compromise on design. An experienced industrial design firm does not compromise on shape in any way and always finds a creative solution to limitations of mechanical design. As for the metal and hardware parts, we designed the plastic parts for full interaction with them.
product design | wearable product design | design evolution
In this picture, you can see the difference in the details in that product - a wearable TRUWITNESS camera adapter for the uniform lapel by FLIR. Over time the product was updated and improved as part of the advanced design process. Prior to the end of development, we are providing another design update round for the products under development. We do this along with the mechanical design because then we can stand up to the limitations that separate good design from actual design. Quntz design Studio - Israel's leading designer of defense products.
product design | wearable product design | prototype
We wear the product on our glasses after it came from the manufacturer in China to us for a product design studio. We photograph and document. A counterbalance that is universally dressed for each pair of glasses. This creates a balance when wearing the camera. In the picture you can note that the use of heavy tungsten cast was chosen because we wanted a tiny product, almost imperceptible for a perfect user experience.
product design | wearable product design | models testing
Development procedure using models for product containing flexible parts. How does theTRUWITNESS FLIR camera adapter connect to a cloth? With a flexible clip that contains plastic teeth. The balance between strength and ease of use is measured in a model-building session in China that is sent to us to the design studio, one product after another after each update. There is some kind of a fine line between product strength and the ease of use. Some kind of sweet spot that we must measure only in the process of experimentation as shown in the picture beforont of you.
industrial design | wearable design | photo-realistic illustrations
Although there are differences between the two types of adapters for the TRUWITNESS, FLIR wearable camera, they must be identical in design language. The language includes: the use of the same color schemes, textures and the same rotational hinge that is actually responsible for the direction of the camera. The use of the same language creates a family of products, as distinct from products that are designed individually. An important principle in design. The family of products is obserevd througha 3D illustration before the production stage to check compatibility.
