Bubble Blowing Football

It began as an idea for a bubble blowing frisbee, submitted by a member of the Quirky platform, which then morphed into a bubble blowing football. During my internship, I made several prototypes to explore each of these products. Unfortunately, this project ended when Quirky filed for bankruptcy and closed its doors in 2015.

Photos above are the last stage of prototypes we got to. My rudimentary prototypes (below) informed some functional requirements, which allowed the industrial designer to create the form rendered above. I took that and designed the internal mechanisms shown in the sectioned 3D print.
