About Sleeve Afgeleë Werk Stel

Boekteks: Sleeve is 'n afgeleë werk stel wat ontwerp is vir reisigers wat werk terwyl hulle onderweg is. Die stel sluit drie modules in wat aan 'n 13-duim skootrekenaar heg. Die produktiwiteitsmodule voeg 'n raakskerm by wat in 'n gefreesde aluminiumdeksel met 'n 180-grade skarnier gestel is, en bied 'n tweede skerm sonder 'n aparte monitor. Die gemaksmodule lig die skootrekenaar se basis met 50 millimeter op vir 'n gemakliker werkshoek. Die organiseringsmodule voorsien elastiese sakke, waarvan een 'n draadlose laaisisteem huisves. Saam verminder die modules die vrag wat tydens reise gedra word.

Production Technology
The productivity module of the Sleeve features a touch display screen encased in a CNC milled aluminum cover with a 180-degree hinge for easy opening and rotation. The incline of the comfort module is designed with a stamp cut plastic, a foam-padded extension is added for incline support. The organization module includes elastic pockets, one of which is designed to hold a wireless charging system.
Design Challenge
Developing a product for the emerging work and vacation space posed several challenges. Firstly, the culture of digital nomads is relatively new, making it important to gain a clear understanding of the unique problems and perspectives within this space. Additionally, the challenge of balancing a seamless tech product with a vacation vibe required extensive research and creative ideation to create a product that meets these unique needs
Research
I conducted a research study on the workcation experiences of 14 individuals and identified three primary challenges they faced: difficulty organizing work materials while traveling, discomfort when working in cafes not designed for work, and distraction caused by the vacation atmosphere. To address these issues, I examined existing solutions in these areas and used them as a basis for my own ideation.
Inspiration
Sleeve is a comprehensive workstation kit designed for travelers who work remotely. With the rise of remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an increasing number of travelers who work while on the go. Sleeve provides a solution to make work and travel trips more comfortable, productive, and organized for these travelers
Project Duration
This project was done in 2 months starting in March 2022 in San Francisco, Bay Area.
Operation Flow
Installing the Sleeve is easy - remove the tape and stick the modules to your laptop. Double-tap the touch display to turn it on and use it as a double screen monitor. For the comfort module, place your laptop on it and lift up the incline. For the organizing module, place things for organizing and on-the-go charging in the elastic pockets.
