Harmonious Design - Born from Technology
Autonomous delivery droids have been developed from the advances in technology in fields such as, sensory robotics, GPS tracking, navigation, electric motors, batteries, and AI to solve the “Last Mile” service delivery problem. For the MOONCHASERZ animated series this droid serves as a mascot and sidekick to the main protagonist. Targeted to the STEM [Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics] enthused youth market and their respective parents, the project’s goals were to design droid that was futuristic, kid friendly, hi-tech, and just plain cool. The design process started with deep research into the lifestyle and tastes of STEM youth. From this research we came up with the idea of the “KIDGINEER” target audience profile. Visual inspiration was found in the unique objects these kids interact with as they are engaging in STEM activities, learning and teaching themselves about technology in very practical ways.
