K.White Thesis Board




I made four prototypes this week and presented them to consumers of both sexes and various age ranges. The models--

inspired by research and surveys--comprised a biometric scanner, money microchips, wearable finances, and a deactivating

I.D. card. The goal I aimed to achieve through the models was to see how people reacted and/or related concepts of literally

being their money (scanner), storing their money (microchip), wearing their money (wearable finances), and reducing odds of

identity theft (I.D. card) by developing an I.D. card that stored the most crucial information inside on a chip that could be

deactivated if it were lost or stolen; hence, preventing access to personal info needed to steal I.D. (address, birth date,

I.D./license number) by literally deactivating one's identity.
