Personalized Skincare App & Mask Device - User-centric Designs

Morphace makes electronic mask devices that track skin health to give users personalized skincare insights. Currently, we have both hardware and software prototypes developed: Hardware: the face is divided into 3 sites (forehead, right and left cheeks), at each site, 3 metrics are measured. Ideally, the mask is to be worn before AM/PM skincare routines for tracking and measuring Software: tracks data readout from the hardware, and tracks user-logged information (used products, habits, concerns & goals). We have the 1st iteration of a high-fidelity design (iOS App) Here are the current gaps when it comes to product development and design: Hardware design: (a) more comfortable material, (b) better method of fixation on the head (doesn't catch hair, easy to put on), and (c) aesthetically pleasing, not uncanny, jewellery-like design Software design: (a) conducting user testing and user interviews, (b) iterating the UI/UX based on user feedback, and (c) designing the strategy for social media outreach and executing to channel interest The goal of this project is to align our current prototypes with the interests of our target audience and better engage them for a more comprehensive understanding of their needs. We aim to find a brand identity in the iterative process. Students will choose their scope based on the gaps, identify opportunities for improvement, and execute while iteratively improving the strategy. This project allows students to apply their knowledge of user-centric design in the real-world context of wearable technology, iOS mobile App, or social media marketing, providing valuable insights into the role of design in business growth.

Iterative 3D Printing Process Optimization for Morphace Healthcare Wearable Tech

The primary objective of this project is to iterate and optimize the 3D printing process of Morphace’s electronic mask device to enhance both its usability and manufacturing scalability. Specifically, the project aims to: Optimize 3D Printing Parameters: Identify and fine-tune printing parameters for flexible materials, using either 60A TPU, or propose other additive manufacturing alternatives like SLS, to ensure design reliability and material performance. Streamline Production for Scale: Refine the design and adjust printing settings to enable the efficient production and assembly of a batch of approximately 100 devices, ensuring that the manufacturing process is both cost-effective and scalable.

Adaptive Wearable Technology Enhancement for Skincare

Morphace Inc. is focused on advancing its wearable technology, which promotes skin cell remodeling through non-invasive electrodes on facial skin. The current project aims to enhance the device by introducing adjustable output settings, allowing users to customize the intensity of the stimulation according to their needs. Additionally, the project will involve implementing a sequential activation mechanism for the electrodes, optimizing the therapeutic process by targeting specific areas in a controlled manner. Another key aspect of the project is transitioning the device to a portable power source, increasing its usability and convenience for users on the go. This project provides an opportunity for learners to apply their knowledge in electronics, programming, and biomedical engineering to create a more versatile and user-friendly product. - Enable adjustable device output for personalized user experience. - Implement sequential activation of electrodes for targeted therapy. - Transition to a portable power source for enhanced mobility.

Product Design & Prototype

Morphace is a startup that produces data driven mask devices that treats wrinkles and tracks skin condition on a paired app. Morphace aims to refine the aesthetic design of our skincare mask devices to better align with customer preferences and branding. This project will focus on enhancing the mask's visual appeal and ergonomics to increase market competitiveness and customer satisfaction.
