Lighting 2.0 (Video)

 

Most lighting setups still are pretty old fashioned. Over 100 fluorescent tubes in a room and there will be light. However, the user does not have control over the lighting apart from switching it all on or all off. The problem that I tried to solve during this project is based on modern lighting setups that offer more control to the user and make the installation of the setup less costly. The two stakeholders identified in this project are the end user and the installer. Up to 50 percent of the costs of installing a new lighting setup is pure man hours. Saving time equals saving money. Designing a solution which solves a problem for both parties was the task during this project.

DJ Battle

 

Another activity for the Lustrum Committee. For Club040 we setup a DJ talent battle in Eindhoven. Almost 100 DJ’s sent in their demo’s via Soundcloud and over 10.000 hits came along the site in a mere two weeks. The voting system was based on Facebook likes which made it promotional campaign interactive. After two semi-finals and one final which were great parties DJ Kespa made it to the first place and won a place in the line-up of Club040.

Internship @ VanBerlo

 

This semester was all about my internship at VanBerlo. I went to VanBerlo because of my desire to develop my marketing experience and skillset. VanBerlo is the largest design studio in the Netherlands and has a great reputation on trendwatching.
My internship consisted of a lot of different tasks. I had one main internship assignment, and several other jobs that I did during the semester. The main internship assignment focused on my development in marketing, while the other jobs helped me discover the broad aspects of the studio. The internship was very succesfull and after my internship they asked me to return and do some more work.

Pen

Distractable

 

People with ADHD are often easily distracted. This can be annoying for their environment but also for themselves. Boring meetings are even more unbearable for people with ADHD. My design is a pen with a simple concentration game embedded in it. In this way, the user can switch between the pen and the meeting very fast and he is not a disturbance anymore.

TwitnicTable (Video)

 

The goal of this project was to improve the exchange of knowledge between students. During this project it came apparent that helping and teaching each other is an act that looks a lot like trading. Why would one help another? You better ask the question: ‘When would someone help another?’. It’s a simple rule. You give something, for example knowledge. What you get back does not necessarily mean you have to get something like that back. No, the satisfaction you get from helping one can be enough to help.

Solar Tower

 

This was my second project at the TU. This project offered a very wide start: do something with this new battery technique (lithylene) that makes it possible to create batteries in almost any shape. Another aspect of this battery was the possibility to create very thin batteries, starting from 6mm. Combining these two properties would allow to use the battery for example to make shaving devices smaller because the body is smaller.

The TomTom project was my first project on the TU. The project description was very broad: Find new opportunities for TomTom. Hence the name for the project, TomTOPportunities. The outcome of the project consisted of two parts, a new user interface and an extra feature.
