- Abstract
- This 30 credits master degree project focused on creating a product
design with the aim to expand Arduino’s maker community to reach
young girls. The goal was to design a wearable merchandise for Arduino
#include, which would inspire girls to explore STEM and learn about
technology and programming. Arduino is a open source hardware
company and Arduino #include is an inclusivity programme to celebrate
Arduino’s inclusivity values. Extensive research, via one survey and
multiple interviews, was conducted in order to understand the interests
of young girls and their thoughts on technology and programming.
During the course of this project the target group changed to instead

Although the design concept was still executed with girls’ interests in
mind. The result is a component system and online platform for crafting
your own wearable technology. (Less)
