The project aims to revolutionize the traditional travel pillow by transforming it into a versatile travel companion that addresses both physical and psychological comfort. Leveraging the concept of split and merge, the design process incorporates the understanding of travelers' multifaceted needs, innovative design thinking, and cutting-edge technology such as e-textiles and sensors. The ultimate goal is to create a travel accessory that provides a sense of familiarity and home-like comfort during long journeys, thus making travel not just bearable, but also an enjoyable experience.
