This project addresses the psychological and emotional toll faced by first responders at disaster sites. Drawing from personal experiences and global events, it explores how industrial design can play a restorative role through a vibroacoustic therapeutic vest. The vest leverages modern wearable technology to deliver stress-reducing therapy on-site, offering emotional support in high-stakes environments. By centering care and well-being, this design honors the long-standing legacy of first responders while envisioning a future where mental health and empathy are integral to product development. It exemplifies how design can foster healing through human-centered innovation.
