Brief
I have developed this concept for a hand-warming device designed specifically for rock climbing. In cold conditions, the blood vessels that keep our vital organs warm constrict. As a consequence, our hands become more susceptible to cold, resulting in skin hardening and stiffness. Therefore, this device can keep your hands warm and make rock climbing safer and more pleasant.

Problem Statement
How might we design a device which can warm our stiff hands before rock climbing to provide a more comfortable and safer experience?
Initial sketches and design
Personas of people whom we are targeting
Prototyping possible designs
The cardboard was not giving the feel of a pocket and was not sitting on my waist 
I made the pockets connect with a stapler but i could get the proper fit and feel on my waist and helped me get the proper dimensions as well
Coming up with the final design 
What powers the device? - The Battery
A hollow piece connected on both sides of a battery to reduce the overall weight of the device
How the power goes from Battery to the pocket?
The Hand Warming Pocket
How does the device connect to your Harness?
In-use
Incorporating the Logo
Final 3d Model
