About OBDeleven Primær funktion: Diagnoseværktøj til køretøjer
OBDeleven er en kompakt diagnoseenhed til moderne køretøjer. Enheden sættes i OBDII-porten og forbindes trådløst til en smartphone eller tablet, hvor skybaseret software aflæser køretøjets systemer. Formen er inspireret af den moderne bilnøgle, så størrelse, farve og materialer passer til et dagligt køretilbehør. Et lysende LED-lys kan indstilles til forskellige farver, så det matcher bilens interiør. En strimmel gør det nemt at trække enheden ud. Matte plastoverflader kombineres med skinnende elementer. Den lille krop bevarer professionelle funktioner i et bærbart format.

- Production Technology
- The device is manufactured using the highest quality materials and innovative technologies. The matte finish of plastic surfaces is enhanced by shiny elements. Different materiality gives a sense of luxury.
- Design Challenge
- The diagnostic devices that can compete with OBDeleven in functionality level are larger and bulky, we have tried to keep the design as small as possible and make it a part of the driver's daily life, a fashion accessory that combines innovative technologies with simplicity. In order to transfer the functionality of the professional software into the smallest possible design, even the tiniest details had to go through 4 iterations until the device was properly refined and got sleeker shapes.
- Research
- This segment devices on the market look very primitive. As a Next-generation device, OBDeleven is a more advanced version of its predecessor. It is based on the First-generation OBDeleven user experience and perception. This sets the product apart from the competitors because of its unique features and better capabilities. Therefore, we have worked hard to ensure that the design clearly communicates these features.
- Inspiration
- The intention to help drivers easily understand their modern vehicles without complex equipment encouraged us to create an innovative device that is simple to connect and small enough to carry. That’s why the modern car key, as the main accessory in every driver’s pocket, has inspired us to create a device that is similar in color, size, and material. Its shape is also made to fit the OBDII port where it is necessary to be connected.
- Project Duration
- The project started in December 2018 in Kaunas and publicly released in November 2019
- Operation Flow
- OBDeleven is a wireless device, which can fully connect to the vehicle operating system with cloud-based software via smartphone or tablet. Being a part of daily drivers routine, the device fits a car in every aspect: it blends with the car panel when it is plugged, and when removed, it finds its place in any car storage.
