ECG T-Shirt
The ECG T-Shirt brings wearable product development and software R&D into the same project. Çağdaş Ekşi played an active role in its research and development. A garment format extends the product discussion beyond an individual screen or software module.
Designing this kind of product calls for considering how the garment is used, how the electronic components fit into that use and how the software behaves. How should the everyday workflow be explained? How does the user understand the device state? Where do responsibilities sit between physical use and the digital experience? These are useful questions when defining the scope of a wearable product.
A product development perspective
This is one of three wearable ECG R&D projects in which Çağdaş Ekşi played an active role. The experience centres on bringing physical product development and software engineering together around a shared product goal.
Expertise spanning backend and server infrastructure, mobile apps, embedded software and hardware–software integration helps connect the different parts of a product. This account describes R&D participation and the approach to product development.
From backend systems to wearables, from development to growth.
Technical leadership and the way a product reaches its users belong in the same conversation. SEO and marketing experience helps turn engineering scope into a clear product story. For wearables, user needs, technical scope and the overall experience also need a common frame of reference.
The ECG T-Shirt, ECG Patch and Finger ECG are presented as separate projects in this portfolio. Each project page links to its article, the other projects and the wearable technology service.
