Working with the team at Rehabstudio, we took Live Cases from an initial concept to a fully featured prototype.

When creating a Live Case, a user can choose a content source (photos, maps) and design their case in 3D in the browser. There is also an Android app that ships with the case, allowing the case to act as a one-tap shortcut!

Challenges of the project included colour matching the online tool with the printed cases, creating a high quality 3D render, creating just as high a quality pseudo 3D (2D) fallback and creating bespoke styles using a Google Map.

As Technical Lead of 15 developers, we rapidly iterated and improved the product. Delivering a mobile first, secure and scalable prototype with wide browser support. This prototype was then used by another team as the basis for the site that was deployed to production.
