Portable Boot Dryer for Outdoor Enthusiasts

Designed over the course of 13 weeks, the boot dryer fills a previously unserved market segment. The project progressed through many phases: investigation into existing products, markets, perception, technology and production, research into potential users and use scenario, concept generation, refinement and 3D modeling, feasibility and usability testing, final concept renders, final appearance model technical drawings and a cumulative project report.
