Companion
Competition Brief
2025
Trains can be difficult for everyone to navigate, especially those with mental health conditions. The companion is a device which helps guide the user through their journey with gentle nudges, just as a friend would.This project was a collaboration between Northumbria University and Innovia Technology. The brief centred around expanding a digital brand (trainline) into physical products and experiences.
