Entry Description

Bravo is a smart IoT device fostering remote team bonding through engaging, real-time interactions. Its minimal desktop design and unobtrusive interface allow remote workers to write and receive physical notes, visualizing personal interactions later. It consists of a 3D printed case made from recycled plastics, incorporating a thermal printer, camera, motion sensor, Raspberry Pi, and touch screen. This combination of hardware enables users to scan hand-written notes, select recipients, and print out. Bravo promotes connection and mental wellbeing, enhancing remote workers' sense of belonging.
