The future of coming home.
Arcus
Arcus, Authenticated Ring for Contactless Unified Security, is a smart security system that replaces your house key with a wearable ring. Built with an embedded RFID and NFC chip, the ring lets you unlock your home with a single tap, no digging through bags, no fumbling with keys, no forgetting them at home. Beneath its sleek, wearable design sits military-strength, multi-layered cryptographic security, making Arcus the most sophisticated wearable home access system on the market.

Solution
The solution started with letting go. Stripping the original project down to its core revealed what Arcus was always meant to be: a security ring designed to create frictionless living. Encrypted communication and anti-cloning hardware ensure that the only person getting through your door is you. Water and wear-resistant, requiring no charging, and built to move through daily life without a second thought. Coming home has never been this effortless.
Challenge
Arcus started as a sophomore year project in 2024. In the time since the original concept was developed, actual RFID and NFC rings made their way to market. That changed the challenge entirely. The existing options were unreliable and unclear in purpose, while the only alternative was surgically implanting a chip, something most people would never consider. Returning to the project meant finding the real gap: a wearable home access system that was genuinely secure, beautifully designed, and completely non-invasive.
