My role in the project
My role in the project
I worked with Shryas Bhurat, and Sun-Q Kim to design Vibeway, a smart shoe system integrating sensor technology and a companion mobile app to enhance user experience for visually impaired people. We worked in four sprints: (1) Research & Ideation, (2) Industrial & System Design, (3) Prototyping & Fabrication, (4) UI/UX Development & Testing, and (5) Engineering & Coding. As a design manager and lead designer (1-4) for the team. I initiated the project idea and led the overall design direction, transformed research insights into a 3D shoe design and iterating on the midsole structure for optimal comfort and functionality. In the later stages, I contributed to prototype fabrication, ensuring the physical product aligned with our intended user experience, and developed high-fidelity renderings to visualize the final product. Additionally, I designed the mobile app interface, focusing on intuitive interaction and seamless integration with the smart shoe system.

Problem
An estimated 79 million visually impaired people worldwide rely on canes, guide dogs, apps, or smart glasses to navigate, but they often face mental and environmental challenges in daily life.
An estimated 79 million visually impaired people worldwide rely on canes, guide dogs, apps, or smart glasses to navigate, but they often face mental and environmental challenges in daily life.
Based on interviews and research, we identified that the main challenges faced by visually impaired individuals when navigating include:
Lack of tactile paving
Poorly maintained or under-construction pathways
Blocked tactile paths due to parked vehicles
Unintentional contact with pedestrians when using a cane.
A sense of social stigma when navigating with a cane, even when following designated tactile paths.
Guide dogs require extensive training and maintenance, which can be extremely expensive, making them inaccessible to many individuals.
High-tech products like smart glasses are expensive and rely on audio feedback, which can interfere with blind individuals' ability to interpret their surroundings through hearing.

Solution
We developed smart shoes that replace the traditional cane, allowing visually impaired individuals to navigate more independently and confidently.

This reduces reliance on expensive and maintenance-intensive tactile paving infrastructure and high-cost guide dogs, which are often insufficient to meet market demand.

Concept
VibeWay smart shoes integrate GPS, ultrasonic sensors, and haptic feedback to provide real-time directional guidance. The companion mobile app allows users to capture photos or record videos to analyze content using AI, enhancing environmental awareness.

Existing navigation solutions for visually impaired individuals, such as canes, smartphone apps, and smart harnesses, often rely on audio feedback or GPS but lack real-time obstacle detection or multi-sensory guidance. Vibeway sets itself apart by combining GPS, haptic feedback, and AI-driven environmental analysis, providing precise, real-time navigation while preserving sensory awareness in complex urban settings.

When an obstacle such as a vehicle or pedestrian is detected, the shoes notify the user through specific vibration patterns. As the user walks through different road environments, such as intersections, the smart shoes provide tactile feedback through the soles to convey directional and environmental information.

Tactile Paving
Tactile Paving
Based on the principles of traditional tactile paving, I designed six distinct feedback patterns to help visually impaired individuals understand the type of surface they are walking on. Traditional tactile paving is often limited by width and installation constraints, but with Vibeway smart shoes, any surface can effectively become tactile paving through haptic feedback. This enables more flexible and accessible navigation, even in areas lacking proper tactile paving infrastructure.

This enables more flexible and accessible navigation, even in areas lacking proper tactile paving infrastructure.
Tactile refers to the sense of touch, and therefore tactile paving is paving that conveys information to users via that sense of touch. This is most commonly achieved by having a distinctive raised profile that can be detected by users, such as ‘ribs’ running across the paving, or ‘spots’ that create a bumpy surface. The key element with tactile paving is that different surface profiles are intended to denote different hazards, and these are outlined below.

We first designed the circuit based on the foot pressure map, determined the precise shape through laser cutting, and then completed the test prototype using 3D modeling. Due to limitations in material types and dimensions, some design adjustments were made.

The shape of the housing unit is influenced by our study of shelters developed by indigenous nomadic communities, including Bedouin tents, North American tipis and MONGOLIAN YURTS. We saw how the yurt’s shape is similar to the Patheon. The circular form is embracing and inclusive. Our goal was to not to place families in something that felt like their lost homes, but to create new kinds of spaces that feel CALM, INCLUSIVE AND PROTECTED.

Computational design and 3D printing challenge
When I joined Reia, it was just a concept—an idea waiting to be developed into a fully functional Web Portal and VR experience that the Clinicians and patients would actually use. One of the most fascinating aspects for me was running A/B tests on different user interfaces. It was incredible to see how even small changes like how progress is visualized or how rewards are framed could affect user engagement and outcomes.

Leading a team
Working closely with engineers, taught me the importance of collaboration and teamwork. Each team had its own priorities, insights, and goals, which often led to spirited discussions where we had to align our visions and find a common path forward. The challenge was not just in sharing ideas, but in listening, compromising, and finding solutions that balanced creativity and technical feasibility. It reinforced for me that great products are born not from individual effort, but from a collective passion and dedication to a shared vision. This informed a foundation for the app's design, guiding decisions throughout the process.
