Case Study: ID7 Eyewear
In collaboration with other Industrial Design Students and the University of Canberra Eye Clinic, I was involved in the launch of the ID7 Eyewear line. My role was to develop the ergonomic parameters that allows the shape of these glasses frames to be infinitely adjusted to fit any head shape. This project involved consulting with experts from the Eye Clinic, developing a measurement system to define the geometry of the glasses, and making a parametric digital model that those measurements could be added into seamlessly.
