Thorough research conducted before the design process defines key terminology and essential ergonomic parameters.
This example demonstrates how to remove the system from a backpack. Once taken out, the individual components are separated, and all pads are connected to the sound module. The system is then ready for use.
Multiple iterations of 3D-printed prototypes illustrate the evolution of the product range throughout the design phase.
Components stack on top of each other, making transportation compact and easy.
Components stack on top of base module, making stationary assembly quick and easy.
Designed for drummers.
