Delve

Inspiration

We kept coming back to one question: how do you truly understand yourself? In a world of constant noise, social comparison, and identity pressure, people are searching for clarity, but the tools available are generic, unguided, and leave individuals to figure it out alone. We wanted to explore a source of self-insight that's been there all along, completely untapped: our dreams.

What it does

Delve is a wearable device paired with a mobile app that records and visualises your dreams while you sleep. When you wake up, you get a full replay of your dream alongside key analytics like lucidity, emotional intensity, identity stability, and personalised insights that surface recurring themes and patterns from your subconscious.

How we built it

We designed the full product experience in Figma, mapping out the user journey from device to app, building out the dashboard, dream vault, analytics, and constellation theme map screens. Then used the low fidelity designs and prompting in FigmaMake to create the high fidelity prototype.

Challenges we ran into

Figma prototyping pushed us more than expected: getting complex interactions and micro-animations to behave the way we envisioned was genuinely tricky. Time constraints meant we had to make tough calls about what to prioritise, and some of the more advanced Figma tools had a steeper learning curve than anticipated.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Honestly, the depth of the concept. We went beyond a surface-level app idea and built something with real clinical use cases, grounded research, and a cohesive design system we're proud of.

What we learned

That constraints force clarity. Also that the intersection of neuroscience, design, and self-improvement is a far richer space than we initially realised.
