Issues With Original Transponder
• Stands out in car interior.
• Relies on permanent
velcro strips that stay on
windscreen even when not
in use.
• People o en times do
not install the strips which
leaves the transponder
unanchored and a potential
hazard when driving.
• Bulky physical aesthetic.
• Velcro Strips leave residue
on windscreen when
permanently removed.

How Fastrak Works
A microchip holds
data/identification
and transmits it
through an antenna.
The RFID reader
has an antenna that
constantly transmits
a signal and senses
when a tag is in
proximity
The data is then sent
to a host system and
is processed for data.
Open-Road Tolling Process
How RFID Works
What is RFID?
Radio-Frequency Identification
(RFID) is the use of radio waves
to read and capture information
stored on a tag a ached to
an object. A tag can be read
from up to several feet away
and does not need to be within
direct line-of-sight of the
reader to be tracked.

Color Research
Color Choice and Design Reasoning
During my process I also considered interior colors so that the
transponder is more seamless in the interior. An object like this should
not disrupt the interior, but blend in so the aesthetic is not altered.

Creating an
Experience
As more people choose to live in cities and become addicted to technology, we lose a sense of
community and direct human contact that once came naturally. Bonfires have always been a se ing
that brings people together to communicate, share food, and build relationships. Bringing this
element into the homes of city dwellers can help people ditch their technology and engage in real
time conversations and strengthen their sense of community.

The Tank
Friendly Fire is powered
by a standard propane
tank that his stowed
away at the base of the
grill. The propane tank
not only makes friendly
fire safe for small spaces
where smoke may be an
issue, but it also gives
the grill a low center
of gravity. This helps
to keep from tipping
over and becoming a
potential fire hazard.

The Classic Bic Pen
It seems that everyone from
doctors to designers are familiar
with the classic Bic Cristal Pen.
They come in a variety of colors
and usually in packs of at least 5 or
more. For some people they have
become to go to writing utensil
because they are inexpensive,
plentiful, and oﬀer great
pe ormance for the price. But as
technology advances and people
move towards a hybrid of traditional
mediums and computers to
execute their work, the pen they are
used to should evolve with them.

If you set a trapezoid up and place weight
on top of it, the weight is distributed
either outwards or inwards, but equally in
both directions, thus the net distribution is
balanced across the base. In this case one
side will be trying to collapse to the le ,
while the other is trying to collapse to the
right. In the end, they will end up holding
each other up.
