Bachelor’s thesis is the result of a
research on the issue of equine industry. The
main goal is to transform and improve the use
of horse blankets, sheets or coolers for sweat
and maintaining a moderate temperature
balance through the analysis of already existing
solutions, a process-driven analysis of the
process, focused on the needs in the given
animal environment and the caretaker. The
result of thesis is a blanket, which uses
advanced heat conductive material with heating
system, that regulates temperature with an app.
The bachelor's task in the research analytical
phase includes a description of the equestrian
industry, the need for horses after recreation,
focused on the well-being and health, and the
needs of the work of the rider or the manager
himself. Through the user analysis, the needs of
post-training are covered by methods of
observation, interviewing and interviews. Part of
the analysis is dedicated to the selection of
materials and technology examined through the
anatomy of the animal's body for the best
possible solution based on the chosen topic. In
the second part, the conceptual phase shows
the process of finding a solution that would
meet the set design principles. The ultimate
solution solves the problems recorded and
presented with visualizations, photographs and
technical plans
