Abstract
A Pocket of Ideas. The idea for Scriba was borne out of a practical and personal need that was not being satisfied by existing digital styli on the market. A love of well-designed products and technology harboured since a teenager (coupled with a career in architecture) sparked the vision of exploring a new opportunity and of making this idea a reality. The idea became a sketch, the sketch became a model, the model became a 3D print which I carried around in my pocket for six months. This crude 3D print became an ever-present, physical reminder to obtain user feedback for Scriba as a concept (and the potential it represented) everywhere I went. So I set myself a goal; I would build a prototype, launch it on Kickstarter and give it a year! Eighteen months later and with a team of twelve we have just completed a successful Kickstarter launch of Scriba—the flagship product of a new consumer electronics business.
