The Key Chainz
Designing an accessible home entry device
About The Project
Personal property is valuable
Maintaining access to personal property can cause frustration because users have inadequate tools for securing their belongings and protecting themselves reliably and affordably. As a result, our team is designing a home entry system that helps users achieve their goal of effortless security.
Our entry system consists of a keypad receiver and a key fob or mobile phone transmitters that can be use to unlock the deadbolt on a door hands free.

Design Process
The Key Chainz utilized a user-centered design process to develop an Accessible Home Entry device
PRELIMINARY RESEARCH
Research findings were our first step in the design process. Through an in-depth literature review, we gathered information on creating secure access
IDEA GENERATION
We combined our individual design sketches and storyboards to generate a preliminary concept of our access system
DESIGN ITERATION
We developed wireframes and physical prototypes to present to users. With their evaluation and feedback, we made necessary changes to our product
