A tool for self-improvement—or submission?
TOBRO was designed as an AI-driven wearable device that tracks, monitors, and corrects human behavior in real time. Marketed as an assistant but functioning as a compliance mechanism, TOBRO serves as the physical manifestation of MESIF’s invisible governance. Built using data from high-scoring individuals, TOBRO helps condition low-scoring individuals’ behaviour to match with their counterparts and become more compliant to the scoring system, while becoming a visible marker of their inadequacy.


TOBRO is presented as a 3D printed enahancem,ent wearable device for better living.


Designing TOBRO to Feel... Wrong

Cold-to-the-touch materials → Unsettling, clinical, impersonal.

Constrictive ergonomic fit → Mimicking the weight of constant surveillance.

Subtle vibrations & biofeedback responses → A physical reminder: You are being watched.
