My team and I designed a mobile companion app for the fictional NexJacket, a modular, sensor-enabled wearable jacket that safely and securely tracks and analyzes biometric health data. Designed to support all lifestyles and emergency scenarios, the app provides users with real-time updates on vitals like heart rate, body temperature, blood pressure, and step count, while enabling phone-free emergency protocols, live data visualizations and summaries, and contextual insights through its clean, responsive interface.
Other key features include secure biometric authentication, context-aware haptic feedback, and a modular system for syncing jacket components across multiple devices. From voice-activated mic toggles to a wrist-level control panel, the app serves as a digital bridge between the user and their physical wearable, prioritizing safety, data privacy, ease of use, and intuitive feedback. Through these considerations, we produced a design and interface that could thrive in motion-heavy, on-the-go settings.
