mobiBOARD - Redesigned Whiteboard for Anytime, Anywhere

The studio began with explorations of basic mechanisms to understand motion, transformation, and mechanical behavior. These exercises informed the mechanical foundation of the final product. This product is a collapsible, lightweight redesigned whiteboard for users who conduct lessons at multiple locations. It features a flexible writing surface held under adjustable tension using side knobs, allowing smooth writing and easy erasing with whiteboard markers. The frame is made of lightweight, durable materials and folds into a compact, portable form with integrated storage for markers and a duster, addressing the need for mobility, adaptability, and quick setup in dynamic teaching environments.
