Haptic Portal is a remote intimacy project, connecting close friends and family through a haptic link. The project relied heavily on prototypes for communicating and validating ideas.

After an initial video prototype, I created a rough cardboard-based prototype, finishing with a polished and long lasting prototype and model. This IoT project was based on an Arduino Uno.
