We Want Your Empathy
For their sponsored project held by RIM Blackberry at the Art Center College of Design, designers Kiki and Daniel had to incorporate an interface that integrates human emotions with the concept of social networking. The result of this exercise was the Empathy concept. The phone is used in conjunction with a biometrics ring that is worn by the user to collect “emotional data”. Spec-wise it features a transparent OLED screen that becomes transparent when not in use and opaque during interaction. The front is all touch surface, while on the back there is a physical keyboard.
As Daniel describes the interface:
It is of course touch based and all the user’s connections are shown graphically so you can see who is connected to whom. Each contact has an avatar that is encompassed by two colored rings. The inner colored ring shows the contact’s previous emotional state, and the outer ring represents the contact’s current emotional state. It is important to show the shift in emotions in order to see how an event has affected that contact.
Another important feature that we felt was important was the “Emotional Health Chart”. This chart would monitor the user’s emotional health through an indefinite period of time. One would be able to see how a certain event, or phone call/ message has affected the user. Obviously, if the chart shows someone is always upset, there would be a problem… If permitted, a user would be able to view other user’s charts as well.

Daniel Yorba says
don't be a scumbag. This is a student project, as such it is aspirational. Without ideas like this you would be living under a rock. Everything worth anything was once a crazy idea.
TAHA says
I wish!!
The concept, the idea, the shape!! WOW!!

completely silly. The shape does not look remotely ergonomic and is bulky. Mood ring… simply silly useless gimmick. Common RIM… lets get a real future what function supported by form.. not new silly form without real function.
anon says
I'd agree but with computer-based products, form becomes an ancillary to function. I'm not a fan of the mood ring and question it's real use when social networking doesn't do very much other than sell your information to retailers.
Andrew Russett says
While the shape is not ergonomic that is exactly what attracts me to it. The market is flooded with iphone clones that are simply boring. the mood ring i agree is necessary though if they were serious about biometrics it would probably make more sense to make a bracelet to do the job.
either way I am a fan of phones that can pull off a totally new look.
Michelle Thornsen says
One hundred percent in agreement.
The shape is so appealing to me.
I have a blackberry curve right now.
Just another smart phone.
The release of this phone would make my heart smile.
I wouldn't care the cost of it.
Taha says
RIM's crazy is they dont buy this design !!!
sooo HOT !!!!!!!

I would buy this immediately if it were designed just like this. emotions or not.

The objective of this RIM sponsored design competition was to design a phone that integrated human emotions with social networking. I think this submission absolutely hit the mark and then some. Bravo! For the cynics that say that this is impossible, there was a time when cynics thought that it would be impossible for people to walk around carrying a phone because it would be too large, too expensive, too complex to build, and you'd need an extremely long cable to extend from a wall to wherever you are walking.

I love the whole idea. It would be even better if the ring scanned your biometrics and u could use it as a lock to prevent others from using it. This is BADASS!!!

This phone is revolutionary. There was a time where ppl thought portable phones were impossible and im willin to bet they felt stupid when cellulars came out. Just sayin tht ppl shud stop shunning new ideas and start embracing it.

If there's a phone I'd hate to lose. This is it!

love the idea but a few stipulations: why not ditch the ring and have the phone itself read your emotions? also the points at the top and bottom of the phone are pretty sharp. how about round the top and bottom and make it less geometric. its a very intense user interface as well and needs to be made more…friendly looking. all in all, great phone, can’t wait to buy it, and PLEASE keep the charging board (wireless?) concept!

Neman says
How do you propose to keep it clean from fingerprints, skin oils, and surface damage? Any currently in-market protective case design would destroy the aesthetics.
The most revolutionary part of this design is the front touchscreen/back keyboard. You'd need a 8,000 mAh or more battery to power this thing for a reasonable period of time.
It does look like Superman's BlackBerry though. Good call on the "stolen from the Fortress of Solitude"
For those who think this is a RIM-designed device, current or future product, please learn to read. And then read. At least read the first two sentences.
Andrew Russett says
If it is manufactured with gorilla glass as the entire exterior it wouldn't need to worry about oils, fingerprints or surface damage.

What’s with reading people’s emotions? Of what advantage is that? And what’s the sense in the mood ringtones? I think this concept is silly. It doesn’t make sense. And the phone is rather bulky. Phones should be getting smaller. Should there be a reason for a phone to get bigger, it had better be a sensible one. Ugh!

GOBER says
Don’t be deceived this is a demonic strategy, i see spiritual attachment to this, the question you guys should ask is this “WHY RING”? “WHAT KIND OF SCIENCE WILL LIKE THE SOULS OF MEN TOGETHER AROUND THE WORLD”? Children of the most High God, watch out!
Angelique says

Rubella says
You keep spelling “Satan” wrong. This phone is not some Illuminati symbol. Not everything with a geometric shape is evil.

This Emapathy design is a complete copy of an INDIAN DESIGNER’S work, shame on these people to copy such designs and improve them to suit their design language and show it as if they have designed this concept
kiki and daniel do something new ,i am searching the web for the indian designers name and very soon post it to yanko
Josh says
He’s your son. How did HE make you do anything? I don’t have children though I don’t remember having that much control over my parent’s decisions. Or was it just not a big deal over all? I’m just curious I guess. Is this behavior common? Should I be concerned when I have kids?
Makera says
This design is incredibly mind-blowing. ‘can’t wait to have a feel of it.
OKEY IDEOZU says
This piece really stand tall amidst blackberry. Creativity & good concept @ work. Really innovative!!!
baks says
Very cool, patiently waiting..
Raisani Abdul Razzaque says
Ohhh!!! Such a mind blowing and amazing innovation is still not in my hand…!! anxiously waiting for this to come in my hand asap.
cooperating says
i like the program and the mood ring.. only the shape of it.. it looks so rough it’s not pretty as a ring should look like.. i do like the way it works.. and seeing the way people feel.. you’ll know when they need a friend or when they are touched by your message for example.. love it..
the phone itself is a little raw.. yet modern and smooth, but original.. i do like original..
the program seems to me is the biggest pro becouse of the sciencefiction-like look i love it.. specially to be able to see the persons who are the closest to you
Oel says
Hope it doesnt breaks when it falls…
this phone aint good for clumsy hands…
Glittery Eyes says
THIS PHONE SUCKS!!! A PHONE SHAPED LIKE A DIAMOND??? THE ANSWER IS BHOOOOO!!!!!
PhD in Fail says
If this ever gets into production and I get me one of those, I’d start the day with this:
In brightest day
In blackest night
No evil shall
Escape my sight
Let those who worship
Evil’s might
Beware my power
Green Lantern’s light!
ME GUSTA.
Jimmy C says
@Glittery Eyes: YOU SUCK! A guy who hates a phone just for its shape? The answer is BOOOOOOO.

iPhone Happy says
This phone is terrible. It will never compare/compete with the iPhone. The iPhone will keep it’s simplistic shape & still sell out when all phone brands have decided to make inconveniently shaped devices.
Pass.

normal mood ring only react to body temperature, in other words, they only say if you are cold or not, this ring actually checks your vitals to know your mood, I actually think it is a great idea to implement, prevents you from doing stupid mistakes

Its like you read my mind! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in
it or something. I think that you could do with a few pics to drive the message home a
little bit, but instead of that, this is fantastic blog.
A fantastic read. I will certainly be back.
