9/12/2025 – Since our last post, the IPPD team for Lithonics has landed on the team name Ion Clad and the logo above. This is in reference to the Lithium-Ion technology involved in the project and the nature of the wearable design. We have now met with our Coach as well as our liaisons at Lithionics to determine expectations and goals for the project and have been made acquainted with the IPPD lab space and resources. The team underwent initial brainstorming, with possible ideas floated for how to complete aspects of the project. Ion Clad is hard at work researching our product’s stakeholders, competitors, and requirements to build concrete specifications for our design.
