Inner Tide

This project investigates how technology can actively contribute to mental wellness through the design of a smart massage chair and a companion mobile app. The chair provides personalized massage programs, biometric feedback, and multi-sensory therapy, including scent diffusion and ambient sound, to create a deeply calming physical experience.

The connected app complements this experience with tools for mood journaling, guided therapeutic exercises, and access to a supportive user community. Integrating VR technology, users can enter immersive natural environments that help them disengage from external stress and focus on inner healing. Together, the system merges physical comfort with digital empathy, bridging the boundary between body and mind.
