The SNAP Ring is a Bluetooth remote controller that allows users to interact with their devices without direct contact. It can connect to phones, tablets, or laptops via Bluetooth, enabling users to play music, take photos and videos, and control video streaming.

The Brief

The client desired a fun design to appeal to the selfie culture audience with this photo-snapping smart ring.

Solution

The cartoony form of a diamond ring, reminiscent of pop art comics, seamlessly merges modern technology with the traditional idea of a ring, creating a playful yet functional accessory.
