Logi Buds - Hearable for new Experiences

Degree Project 2020

Technology plays a big part in our lives, and our phones give us access to it anytime and anywhere. As technology becomes more and more integrated into everything we do, it can sometimes distract us from the things that matter the most to us.

We are living in the most connected time in human history and our screens are a foundation for how we interact with information. But our attention to the screen comes with a cost. It makes us lose focus. It makes us feel more stressed and it leads to a lot of accidents on the roads.

I wanted to focus on how we can look up again because we are not addicted to screens, but the information that flows through them. There’s much more that we can do with ears than amplify music and make phone calls. Today’s hearable is designed to be a product for us to be isolated. I wanted to rethink how a hearable could also interact with the outside world.

Logi Buds is a hearable concept made to bring in new experiences that could help us in our daily life to reduce the dependence on our screens. With the new experiences, Logi Buds makes people be more aware of their surroundings, enables the user to focus better, and to reduces stress.
