Today I presented Pulse One for my Studio II final.

Pulse One is a personal alpine intelligence ecosystem designed to amplify backcountry exploration. By pairing an autonomous drone node with a haptic feedback strap, the system completely eliminates distracting screens.

I am happy with thedevelopment of the project, and I do plan on continuing polishing out Pulse One. These slides show where the system stands today.
My final deliverables are officially locked in.

Core System
Drone: Maps terrain in real time, detects hazards, and helps maintain flow
Visor: Minimal alerts that keep your focus on the mountain
Strap: Converts terrain data into vibration, guiding movement intuitively

System + Value
Shared terrain mapping improves navigation and performance tracking
Risk detection (like avalanches) triggers instant haptic alerts
Personal ownership enables customization and gamified experiences
Resorts gain insights to improve safety and enhance skier experience

[ PART 2/2 ]

Today, I started using Meta - Here is another workflow using AI to animate my renders while keeping my specific style exactly as it is.

It’s been a great way to see my ideas come to life without losing the personal touch of the original drawing. The stills and animations came out looking sharp and stay true to the way I work.
