BS in Product Design — Product Design

PlayScape

Combining physical building blocks with virtual reality (VR) technology, this project creates a seamless platform where children can design and immerse themselves in the worlds they create. Leveraging AI-powered tools like Vizcom, users can transform simple geometric blocks into detailed 3D models and integrate them into a VR environment. The goal is to foster creativity, imagination, and technological engagement in children across different developmental stages.
Learning Outcomes:
Through this project, I learned to integrate emerging technologies like AI and VR into child-centered design. I deepened my understanding of user experience for young users, and how to create intuitive systems that balance complexity with accessibility. I also strengthened my research and prototyping workflow, translating abstract ideas into a working platform that promotes creativity through multisensory engagement.
