EveryRing diegetic prototype

EveryRing - a fashionable, snap-on ring that has a magnetic strip in its back and can store information of multiple cards, used as a replacement for your big fat wallet full of cards.

TL;DR: A video is more than a thousand words. 

Low Resolution Prototype

We started from the low resolution quick prototype made last Monday in class:

High Resolution Prototype

We used aluminum foil to make these prototypes. We imagine that on the front  (top), there is e-ink aesthetic pattern for style. When the button on the top-left is clicked, the e-ink display changes to iterate through your cards. For example, here we have 3 cards, Chase Credit, Bank of America Debit, and Brown ID. The backside (not shown) is a magnetic strip. (Credit to Kate and Sol)

We call the ring EveryRing. We designed a logo for it (credit Matt).

We imagine that there is a software system that acts as a manager of the cards on the ring. Once you tap your ring on a receiver plugged in on the laptop (RFID receiver), your ring is connected to your laptop and you can add/delete cards there.

When He measured with the standard of measure, He made colours to provide light. Within the spark, in the innermost part, emerged a source, from which the colours are painted below; it is sealed among the sealed things of the mystery of Ayn Sof. It penetrated, yet did not penetrate its air. It was not known at all until, from the pressure of its penetration, a single point shone, sealed, supernal. Beyond this point nothing is known, so it is called reishit (beginning): the first word of all…“
