Travel Buddy

Travel Buddy by Winnie Wen from usa

designer's own words:

In this design I want to explore a new way of interaction between users and products, in order to create expectation and positive emotional response. I use a luggage as an example, and explore how to redesign it so that it does not only fulfill its common duty as a mean to transport our stuff, but increase the level of experience and connection with higher engagement for emotional support or reduced stress through our journeys.

How It Works
The luggage has sensors and motors allow user control it intuitively. It also can be connected to your phone in order to obtain traveling information and location details. Therefore it can leads you to the place you need to go, like airport check in counter, fly gate or person who comes to pick you up. The product acts like a dog, assist you through journey and let you expect more adventures.
