current working environment - mostly landscape at road level
future working environment - many rooftop gardens and grass at varying levels,bringing equipment around is a huge concern
maintain landscape with many tools, most common - grass cutter, has issues about comfort and causes aches onto back and wrists
equipment that can be operated in the future landscape without comfort and ergonomic issues
usage scenario
ROLLER durable rubber roller makesbringing around cutter easier
GUARD flexible d3o material allows it to be folded when notin use while resistant on impact
CHARGING JACKS compatible with various electric charging stations
TELESCOPIC SHAFTextendable at the push of a button
VERTICAL HANDLEreachable throttle control & angled comfortably
CIRCULAR HANDLEallows various grip positions
BATTERY PACKslide-out system makes it easy to remove or replace
BATTERY DOCKbagpack design so easily equipped and taken off or carry around
durable omnidirectional rubber roller means users can move around various landscapeswithout shaft as a hindrance as they candrag it along
circular handle gives users various ways to hold in different situations while throttle control is placed to ensure wrists are not strained
slide-out battery packallows easy removaland replacement
safety guard made of d3o® material allows to bend around shaft when not in use so less of a hindrance & with a push will snap into shape whilst also being able to withstand impacts

Inspired by the perserverance of diabeties sufferers, LINN is the ideal solution for working patients as it allows for better management of their conditon, giving them peace of mindand a balanced lifestyle
The drawback is that her body will have abnormally low blood sugar level when the day starts, affecting the rest of her day via tiredness, migranes, etc
She also does that as she doesn’t bring her kit to work due to people seeing and no chilled area to keep it
i saw an opportunity for a solution in the missing link between her worries about her blood sugar level throughout the day and her unorthodox measures she takes to keep it in check
she administers more than required insulin before she goes to work, so she can eat & drink without worrying about her blood sugar level throughout the day
embarressment, shame and anxiety were the emotions that she experienced and thus shaped her behaviour

users just need to breathe into the holesto know their blood sugar level instead of pricking and testing to get that information, the value is then relayed to the screen above, beside the mouthpiece
the IR Sensor detects the blood sugar level and then extends the Flow Control Device, working in tandem with the Plunger to release the appropriate amount of insulin
insulin is to be dispensed into the tissues below the tongue, an area which allowsfor fast absorption into the body without the hassle of injecting themselves
users can customize their device with different skins
