Aura scanner
- a 2049 wild future
Introduction
In this project i explore future worlds through design, blending experimentation with technique. The task was to imagine a future scenario and create a brand (or organization) and product that would fit within that future. The design envisions a reality shaped by adaptation, where materials, technology, and identity transform in response to a shifting world. Through this project, I enhance my software skills while also expanding my creativity and graphic design abilities. A lighthearted exploration of the possibilities in the future of 2049.

The Scanner
The Scanner
The Aura Scanner is a handheld device designed to read personal energy and provide spiritual guidance. Crafted by the Solaris tribe from repurposed market scanners and old smartwatches, it merges forgotten technology with newfound purpose. By interpreting energy patterns, the Aura Scanner offers ultimate insight into the path ahead, helping its users navigate an uncertain future with clarity and light.

In a Wild future…
In a Wild future…
In a world where corporations have crumbled and cities have given way to sprawling, lawless territories, humanity has fractured into wandering tribes. They scavenge the ruins of the past, crafting tools, shelter, and identity from the remnants of a lost era.
The reckless experiments of the 2030s gene mutation, biological redesign and the fusion of flesh and science have left their mark. Among the many tribes that now walk the earth, one stands apart…

The Solaris tribe
Their skin glows with an ethereal light, a luminous inheritance from generations shaped by bioengineering and cosmic ambition. To them, light is more than a phenomenon, it is a guide, a force that leads them toward salvation in an age of darkness. They move like whispers of the sun, seekers of radiance in a world that has forgotten how to shine.

The interaction is reflected though the screen of the old smart watch and also the light of the scanner, giving both the analyser and the analysed a visual indication of the functions.

This project has been an fun exploration of my skills and creativity. I see design futuring as a powerful tool for imagining possibilities and understanding where design fits within them. While this project took on a more lighthearted tone, it still allowed me to experiment, refine my technical abilities, and push my creative thinking. A thoughtful yet playful journey into the unknown.
