PORTFOLIO cars, products and everything else

ANDRÉ LYNGRA 2011



Dear reader, on the next pages I have collected some of my projects that I have been working on the last 3 years. When I were 13 years old, I found Industrial Design to be my way of living. It all started with drawings of cars and products, and now, 13 years later, Im doing pretty much the same thing. Im still just as excited now as then, and love to go deep in to the explorations and posibilities in new products and services. I hope you will enjoy looking throug my portfolio and find my projects inspiring. AndrĂŠ

Medical Oculus- 3D monitor for surgery OCULUS is a True 3D Monitor designed for diagnostic imaging within medical sector. Designed to support radiologists and surgeons in daily work situations OCULUS bridges some big gaps within the fields of radiography and surgery. In collaboration with Anders A. Kittilsen, fall 2009.

Technologies such as CT, MR and Ultrasound all can generate 3D volume data sets. Showing these data in true 3D adds information to the image, supporting individual interpretation and supporting cross discipline understanding. Adjustable solutions and attentive aesthetics combined with a user friendly interface make OCULUS uniquely suited for surgical interventions as well as for demo sessions and construction of radiographic 3D images.

The OCULUS project has been carried out in near cooperation with doctors and radiologists at Rikshospitalet Oslo, as well as technical engineers from Setred AS.

OCULUS is a plug and play device that can show 3D images without use of goggles or headgear. The brand new technology developed by Setred AS lets the user look around an object, just by moving her head sideways. OCULUS has a wide viewing zone, which also allows for multiple users. This technology enables the user to see where surgical intervention should be, in a fraction of the time normally needed.

The whole process of merging together the 3D model takes place in offices, named analysis department . Images are assembled and constructed by a radiologist who creates a 3D model with a special software. Approximately 180 MR images of the patient are needed, then it takes about 20 minutes to put together. The radiologist takes this forward for discussion in a demo room where demonstrations and briefings are held.

OCULUS benefits - 60% higher accuracy during surgical interventions! - Reducing image processing time; from 8h down to 15min! - Standing out as a serious, professional product - Is flexible, adjustable and mobile - All parts designed for simple production methods - Helpful and friendly aesthetical appearance

Medical Impulse radar in health-care A childs need for trust and safety in hospitals can in some cases be covered by the design of furniture and color variations. I have focused on reducing the hospitalisch` look, and make room for relaxation and play. The product is varied in functionality to cover some of the basic needs, and to fit the smallest kids. It gives room for creativity and fantasy, while covering the need for surveillance and monitoring of the childs health. In collaboration with Intelligent Agent, fall 2010.

What is the idea behind taking use of Impulse-radar in health care? Children at the hospital are very vulnerable, and in most cases hospitals are associated with fear and pain. One of the main reasons for this, is all the cables and machinery used for monitoring. Specially if the child needs to have cables attached to their body to cover the basic needs of information. The impulse radar does have the capability to monitor patients wirelessly by sending and receiving

16

andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

short signals, and still cover the basic information needed from the patient. This helps to remove restrictions given by the cables, and gives the patient more freedom and movability. And most of all, it helps to reduce the perception of the hospital as an uncomfortable place, by hiding technology behind friendly objects for the target group.

Today

Main demands - Reduce a child’s fear and make them feel more secure - Hidden technology in a non-hospital design - Easy to clean and maintain - Durable material and design, suited for play - Reduce need of cables

Future

The concept`s main function is to monitor and send information about the childs health to the nurses. I wanted the product to cover some basic needs, therefor I looked at how children experience the visit at the hospital.

The penguin measures heart rate and blood pressure while sending information to the nurses. They do have different needs of feeling secure, and are strongly dependent in their parents. I found, after a visit to the youth department at Ahus, that they often wake up at night because they are scared and confused. Therefor I integrated a night light to give added value for the children as well as for the nurses. The radar inside the lamp responds to movement in the room. By hand gestures the child controls the light.

Internship Philips Electronics Singapore I took part in the design process in Home Theathre Systems and TV during my 3 month internship at Philips Design. I took part in concept development phase for several products. On the next pages you can see a selection of what I worked with. Due to confidentiality, I can not go deep in to the explanation. 2009

TRANSPORT SubFjord - Geotourism This task had an established approach, where product and partner was set. The cornerstones that lacked was to identify who will use the service and how this can be realized by the technical requirements. By making use of systems thinking I could come up with a larger “package�, by looking at the complexity of tourism, locations and technical criteria. There is much beauty to explore as a diver, but this requires a license and proper equipment. The goal was to reach a vessel that provides the opportunity to experience the marine environment for those who do not have or want to dive

Individual work 2009


Geotourism is tourism industry that recognizes and helps to reinforce the distinctive character of a place - its nature, culture, history and especially its people. Hurtigruten has around 500,000 travelers a year, of which there are 15% who have participated in activities designed for geo-tourism. I chose to look at opportunities in Ă…lesund, and if it could be something of interest nearby and whether it might be possible

28

andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

to travel from there to the Geiranger fjord and maybe Molde. After gathering up some facts about tourism in Norway, and since there were positive results in terms of Geotourism and the percentage of tourists who wanted to experience nature, was then just taking a stand on where the attraction would put the port.


Visualizing big amount of data and research.

Mapping the technical requirements. When I landed at the tourist group in the country and where the service will operate, it was now important to implement the results of market research into the design of the service. This would primarily deal with the possibilities we have in the area but also the requirements posed to the environment. I established contact with the state’s marine department for a guide. It turned out to be uncertainty about what actually is a requirement for such a service, but eventually I managed on my own to determine the technical requirements based and composed of

30

andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

the explanations I got and I did my search. Since the service could not be categorized as a boat or submarine, I chose to be on the safe side to include the requirements of both structures since the concept was tourism. If the goal had been a personal asset and not something that should be used in the tourist business, the survey had been largely governed by the laws of nature. But if it’s paying passengers, it turns out to set an array of other safety requirements, construction and design.


Mapping of the user experience. After that, I wrote about alternative scenarios about how the service can be perceived or performed before, during and after the trip. At this stage I would look at alternative ways to increase the pleasure but also safety. By constructing scenarios, I could easily imagine the outcome of events and enable links to how the structure might be. Since I took the decisions on how the user will be able to experience the service, I decided to look further on the mapping of the technical requirements of one of the scenarios. I chose to categorize the techni-

cal requirements with the degree of importance and relevance to my design and build threads with solutions.

This is not a project, just something I like to do in between. Thats why I put this in between the projects in my portfolio. This is a good example on how I sketch from paper to photoshop.

Transportation GRECCO-avalanche ambulance There have been several deaths in Norway because of stormy weather. Todays ambulances does not have the capability to go deep into the mountains, and often they get stuck in the snow. The gRecco takes use of wheels delivered from Matracks inc. and rescue systems from Recco. The project is an individual work from my spare time, and a fun way to practise systems thinking and advanced design. Individual work, 2009.

andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

The core idea of gRecco is to bring paramedics further into the mountains, rescuing victims from avalanches. There were a heavy design process, and you can see a small selection from it. This is the time when I decided to use the full advantages from sketching and photoshop renderings.

Electronics iPad docking The task was to come up with several ideas for an iPaddocking station. Where the technology from Novelda, a sensor that can track movement and guestures in the room could be used. Wich means that you can control your iPad without touching anything. Imagine sitting in your sofa and do a hand guesture in the air to scroll throug music or movies. Individual work 2010

Key findings

Easy to use

Sharing

Early in the design phase I decided to go deep into personas and build up a database of information, that covered needs and wants from different users. After a small discussion with my teachers, I found it interesting to use the target group above 50 years of age. It was interesting to see how they perceive and take use of modern technology. Unlike young adults one of my key findings were the wish for hidden electronics, but yet perform as practical and useful. It must be easy to use, and not stand out as a high tech product that would maybe get the user anxious of doing things wrong.

46

andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

Integrated

Familiarity

As you can see above, I listed some of my key findings that had to be taken into the design. They do not share interests or knowledge in the same way as the young, the invite friends and family to their home, instead of tweets on facebook. They might live in a larger house and therefor I tried to map up the needs in different rooms, the varieties in use and appearance, to get an understanding of how the design could further fit in to everyday situations.

This concept is based on how a small unit could be transported around the house. For instance the bathroom. The unit above acts as a sender to the mobile units hanging in the bathroom. It lets the user listen to music or radio broadcasts where they want.

I tried to look into new ways of integration and use in day to day lives, and by looking at how the need for hidden technology could be taken to the max. On this page you can see haw I presented the core ideas for navigation and sound systems for TV. But after I had asked my self, what will the iPad bring to the target group that they don’t have to day? I found cooking and the vast opportunity to scroll through recipes. By taking use of the hands free gestures, the user can concentrate on the cooking, and not be afraid of getting grease on the iPad.


living room I designed a shelf with an integrated docking system. It lets the user see and navigate through recipes in a natural way. And still be concentrating on the food.

Transportation SixNine_ Form study The SixNine project started out as a form study with inspiration drawn from plants and animals. In this process, it was gradually added weight on the animal leopard and the fish stingray. Individual work 2008.

andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

51


With this inspiration as a starting point, it was drafted and worked deliberately with advanced curvatures that would take an organic and continuous expression and simultaneously visualize aggression and strength.

52

andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

Using these cues, it was natural to look for the suppleness and muscle building from the Leopard, the lines that were highlighted when it is ready to attack and in the moment when it attacks its pray.


andrĂŠ lyngra 2011

The stingrays curvatures were mixed in the form to increas the sculptural value and the organic expression. The curvatures were painstakingly organized and adjusted in accordance with the air flow and the requirements that were posed to the aerodynamics at high speeds.
