Integrating RayVio’s unique, efficient, and powerful Ultraviolet LED technology into a custom bottle paved the way for UV purified water products. With the talented team at Radius, I designed and built the RayVio's first four self-disinfecting water bottle prototypes, providing them a platform for marketing and testing the hydration purification technology.

I worked closely with industrial designers in envisioning a form factor for a durable, easy-to-use, and marketing-friendly prototype. I then designed the mechanical parts and assemblies, specified and laid out the the electronics, and created several looks-like, works-like prototypes.
