1. Initial Concepts & Ideas

As our team discussed new ambient device concepts, our ideas varied from stress indicators/reducers to direction devices for runners; however, a common theme we kept thinking about was design for social good. A few of us in our group were also part of the Integrated Design Innovation (IDI) challenge this year, where we were researching food insecurity on college/university campuses for our client, Feeding America. After being exposed to the reality of food insecurity on our campus, we felt that there was a problem space to design for. 

Our initial idea was an ambient keychain that lit up and vibrated when there were free food opportunities on campus, as well as when the food pantry was opening/closing.
