Super Flat / Spaghetti container This is an ultra slim spaghetti container, can organize the storage and create a clutter free. In everyday life, there are many objects that have similar structures and shapes. lead refill container is an everyday object and it is the inspiration for this spacesaving ultra slim spaghetti container design.
I sketched different length and width, different ways of opening. Hope that user can learn how to use easily. Then I made few prototypes by paper, I bought a pack of 5-6 servings of pasta, To help me define the correct size of prototype.
Displayed in Taiwan Designers’ week as one of the awarded concepts.
Next / Hospital aids Waiting time too long Hospital experience survey in Taiwan : The most people are not satisfied with the "waiting time too long "(26.2%), the average waiting time more than one hour (69.18/min), 86% of patients aged over 65 with chronic diseases, waiting is the biggest problem for the patients.
"Next" is a communication bracelet for the patient going to the hospital. Next can offer relevant information on hospital waiting times and waiting list. The patient can monitor waiting time and waiting list progress in or outside the hospital.
Contact : With functions of actively monitoring patients' waiting list, sending alerts to patient and making adjustments, the hospital can run more efficiently with "NEXT". The number of synchronization : Next can offer relevant information on hospital waiting times and waiting list, and send alerts with vibration or sound.
Sound / Speaker "Sound" speaker is inspired from the cast bronze bell of the Zhou Dynasty (9th century BC). This bell was part of an ancient musical instrument. The fusion of the modern-day speakers and the bell of the past is allowing our ancient heritage to immerse with our modern ways of life. CO - DESIGNER : SHO-AN, FAN
More than images In the current museum gift shop, the products are just utilizing the images of the history but I am trying to pass on the meaning and the function of past by combining the ancient bell with a similar function modern-day product in the hope of passing on the tradition.
Turn / Wheelchair aids "Turn" is a guiding board that allows wheel chair making corner easier. Placed and attached "Turn" to the floor, the curves on the board can help wheelchair making the corner easier.
Making the corner In a wheelchair, making the corner is a difficult task. In the everyday household situations, there are many tight corners for the wheel chair. Placing the "TURN" at the places, it will make daily life a lot easier for the wheelchair user.
Light Pin / Safety aids "Light Pin" is a pedestrian safety device. By reflecting and refracting incoming light, we increase the lighted area. CO - DESIGNER : SZU-HSUAN, WU WEI-HSUAN, HUNG ZONG-SYUN, CHOU
A 3M company sponsored contest required a less than 50 NT dollar, retailed price and a pedestrian safety product. Pedestrian safety was the main object in our divergent thinking session. After researching, we realized that many pedestrians had a habit of carrying backpacks. This reflective light pin became our final proposed project and this project ultimately won first place in the contest.
Most Accidents Happen at Night Statistics show that 67% of fatal pedestrian crashes peak between 5 p.m. – 11 p.m. Needless to say, along with other contributing factors such as excessive speed or alcohol consumption, reduced visibility plays a significant role in these crashes. It is difficult for drivers to see a pedestrian dressed in white or bright clothing soon enough to be able to stop for him/her. The best way to be seen at night is by wearing reflective clothing and by carrying a flashlight.
Brainstorming We figured that a small accessory like a pin could be wearable for most people.
Theory testing We bought a cheap light to test the reflection effect, and it worked.
Mosquito-47 / Swatter The purpose of this concept is to let users know the location of the mosquito, Use Temperature sensor technology to detect the temperature of the mosquito, And converted into a mosquito screen display position. Users can find and extinguish the mosquitoes in a short time.
Difficult to find the location of mosquitoes? MEMS is a Temperature sensor device, was developed by OMRON Corporation. They proved that temperature sensor technology can be applied in everyday life.
Triangle sachets / Sauce package It is always hard to open a sachet, often stains your fingers. Triangle sachets is a smart sachet package design, You can open the peak of triangle sachets, Easy tear and easy control. CO- DESIGNER : WEI-HSUAN, HUNG
SMALLER !
This is a sauce packaging design, since the opening is smaller, so the user can easily tear, keeping hands clean and easy to use.
Braille Rubber Band / Aids for the visually impaired Braille rubber band is designed to enable the visually impaired to distinguish different containers. CO - DESIGNER : WEI-HSUAN, HUNG
Distinguishing the different containers for the visually impaired is very challenging. Braille rubber band is designed to enable the visually impaired to distinguish different containers, The Braille rubber band has three features, It can be: (1)tailor-made repeatedly. (2)reuse at new bottle. (3)use at different sizes and shapes.
Visual impairment and blindness: The extent of the global burden of visual impairment in 2002 is not strictly comparable to the previous estimates of 1990, which indicated there were 148 million visually impaired, of which 38 million were blind. While the 2002 world population has increased by 18.5% as compared to 1990, the population 50 years of age and older has increased by nearly 30%.
Design process I first analyzed the awarded concepts from international competitions such as the IF or the red-dot award. Next I tried to improve their weaknesses and combine the good points of them to design a better one.
Tailor-made their own label by pressing the Braille.
The tailor-made Braille will remain intact due to the distance between Braille and bottle.
Braille Pills Package / Pills package Braille pills package helps the visually impaired distinguish the difference between pills and also protect the life. CO - DESIGNER : WEI-HSUAN, HUNG Classify pills by themselves: This design can help visually impaired to classify pills by themselves, not only reduce the dependence of others, but also to make themselves more independent. Pill’s name
Date
Wheel Guard for Mobility Aids Requirement: (A)Increase visual stability (B)Less industrial style Limitations: (A)one piece : One piece can reduce the cost of the mold. (B)Ease of Assembly : Client is looking for ease assembly, can provide the final assembly at location. (c)Material : Client is looking for continued used of the plastic that in their current production. Goals: (A)Increase visual stability : The goal is looking for the balance between heavy and flimsy. (B)Less industrial style : Sleek design is the key.

Final concept
Wheel Cover for Mobility Aids
Requirement: Redesign appearance with less industrial style Limitations: All knobs, wheel cover structure, assembly and material shall not change. Analysis : The original wheel cover design has many basic geometric designs cause the mechanical look. Solution : Without changing the assembly connection, minimizes the geometric appearance and introducing the smooth, sleek and bevel
