The Orbit Hydration Vessel

The Orbit is a reusable hydration vessel that allows drinking from any direction by way of a ball joint straw mechanism. I was responsible for conceiving the original concept, completing part design and engineering, managing final engineering support, prototype testing, body graphic treatments, and reviewing factory production samples.

stowes away to make a water tight seal

straw allows drinking from any direction
Inspiration was found in several innovative products that utilize the benifits of ball and socket joints. Also shown are cmf experiments and initial sketchbook doodles with first round FDM test prints.
