Portable Oxygen Concentrator Design
How to Give People Who Receive Long Term Oxygen Therapy More Mobility?
O2U is a portable oxygen concentrator carried on the human body with a small volume and lightweight. With a non-medical appearance and reduced size, it enhances mobility and also encourages users going outdoor using it without unwanted a�en�on. Strap wrap, arm wrap and shoulder strap are supplied for mul�ple purposes, catering for users’ needs in different outdoor situa�ons. Carrying extra bag for bulky concentrator is not necessary anymore.
Oxygen Therapy Oxygen therapy is a treatment for hypoxemia by providing pure oxygen for the individual to improve the low blood oxygen level. By breathing in oxygen, the oxygen-rich blood circulates throughout the body supplying oxygen to cells.

The product can be equipped in several areas, that can afford load and does not affect movements or respiratory func�on. The design aims to adopt the user ’s diverse needs while being ac�ve, therefore, the usage can be personalised with few accessories with it. For the appearance design, it looks simple and chic with the organic form.
Aper Ridge A paper ridge is included inside the cannula to solve the dry nose problem. It can capture the heat and moisture in the paper ridge when exhaling, and released when inhaling to humidify the nose.
Detachable Nasal Cannula The tubes of the nasal part can be detached and changed to users’ preferred cannula. Users can choose their suitable cannula and also reduce the waste of plas�c.

Assis�ve Device for Mountaineer
On mountains ranging from 2600m to 4000m in height, the air pressure becomes lower than on the plain so that it ’s possible to not only have acute mountain sickness but also to possibly die. We designed Reevesi to assist climbers to breath normally through lung expansion by lowering internal presTeam Member: Yuan Ting Wang
sure, hence lowering the risk of HAPE.
Design Background Taiwan is a mountainous island. Climbers have plenty of chances to go mountain climbing. However, climbers tend to get acute mountain sickness (AMS). According to a study conducted by Yushan Na�onal Park, AMS is correlated with high al�tude trekking experience. When the al�tude is higher than 3000m, the AMS prevalence rates are 27%. Therefore, we wanted to design a product that would reduce the chances of climbers ge�ng AMS.

and increases the blood-flow rate. When vasoconstric�on happens, water penetrates lungs easily.Those are vital factors to bring to HAPE.
Problem Solving Through principles of nega�ve pressure ven�la�on, Reevesi compresses air pressure covering the chest which becomes nega�ve while assi�ng the lungs expansion during inhala�on. It can allow people to inhale more air, and get oxygen into the body. Because of this, it slows people’s breathing rate and solves the problem which increases mountain sickness.

Design Concept From the point of view of preven�on, we hope to adjust the climber ’s breathing rate throughout the whole process of climbing. The climber can inhale more oxygen ac�vely from the air they ’re breathing without using an oxygen cylinder.
Prototype In order to fit around a person’s chest and retain enough space to change the pressure inside, we tested, modified and redesigned the shape many �mes. With the coloured stripes, the device would match the clothing of the climbers, crea�ng a sporty and func�onal design that is different from other mountain climbing equipment.
Mechanism design According to Boyle's law, the value differences between pressure and volume have an inverse rela�onship in our product. If volume increases, then pressure decreases. Reevesi uses a motor controlled by our breathing movements to compress space and change the pressure value.

Scenario The climber wears Reevesi outside of their base layers before climbing. A�er that they adjust the Reevesi for the perfect fit and buckle it. When the climber feels unwell on the road, they push the bu�on and start the machine. It expels the air automa�cally by detec�ng the changes in breathing movement. Throughout the change in volume, Reevesi creates a space where is nega�ve pressure so that reduces pressure and increase the inspira�on capacity. It is an effec�ve way to regulate breathing.

Coventry is a culturally diverse city ; it is known for its welcoming nature, history of reforming and regenera�ng itself many �mes, and it is a place of reconcilia�on.Our main goal is to not only highlight the past, but simultaneously make them realize that the present �me can also be celebrated and that the future can be le� to their imagina�on to create.
City of Culture City of Culture is a designa�on given to a city in the UK for one year dura�on every four years. City of Culture emphasizes and leverages the cultural and societal regenera�on and economic development poten�al of the city more than focuses solely on exis�ng cultural assets.

Vision
A 5- year business plan as part of a legacy vision, which has a significant economic and cultural impact
Urban Regenera�on
Change ci�zens’ perspec�ve on city posi�vely, and improve their lives by various schemes
Theme of C- Art: Cityscape
Cityscape [noun] : 1. a city viewed as a scene. 2. an ar�s�c representa�on of a city. 3. an urban environment.
For us, it means the outdoor landmarks, monuments, squares, sculptures and also prominent interiors along wih numerous temporary or permanent structures that relate to the daily experience of its residents.
It can facilitate the people of Coventry to connect to the city’s past, present and future by le�ng them know that they have a say and a role in shaping Coventry’s future.
This is an opportunity to show off not only Coventry’s cultural history but also its present and to shi� people’s percep�ons by educa�ng them about the possibili�es Coventry can achieve by their par�cipa�on.

Concept 2 When thinking of cityscape, skyline is the first impression. Silhoue�e of the city looks similar to the sound waves. By combining both, people can experience the city in a whole new way, not just through vision. Therefore, an idea is born that people could interact with sound on c- art.

LED Cube
Since Coventry is a historically rich and ac�ve city, it has a substan�al amount of both interior and exterior hubs of interest. The concept of cityscape is interpreted as a phenomenon that is strongly �ed to its �meline, which is past, present and future.

Future
In this scenario, the objec�ve is to create three different parts of par�cipa�on so that people can relate themselves with the past, present and future of Coventry.
Past
On the side that represents the past, light-emi�ng blocks are u�lized, which uncover historical cityscape image from Coventry as they are pressed, and they also produce a different beat.
Present
On the present-day side, an LED screen is used as a music pad, visitors can push different bu�ons on it and the track can be created by their own. Also, the app provides op�ons of different countries, the default soundtrack from the chosen country plays by tapping on the screen.
Future
The final side represents Coventry’s future, which is up to the visitors to imagine. People can take a photograph of themselves with the thermal camera and choose to make it a part of the legacy exhibi�on in the upcoming years. When people peek inside through the windows, an installa�on can be seen which lets people imagine Coventry’s future.
Inside the c- art, LED lights are employed in the ceiling and mirrors are on all sides of the interior, and scaled models of past and future buildings in Coventry are on the ground. The mirrors create endless reflec�ons of the buildings and ligh�ng, forming a metaphor for the future of Coventry, which is full of possibili�es and poten�al. Visitors can also imagine and interpret what the future of Coventry will look like in their own way.

10 Year Legacy
The impact is to emphasise that people are the future. Visitors who are willing to share their photos that they took with the thermal camera will be able to add it in an online archive dedicated to DisCov c- art installa�on in the context of City of Culture.
“People Make the City”
From that, the art installa�ons in 10 years with these photography are created. The installa�ons will be plexiglass artworks/ artwalls depic�ng Coventry’s key past, present and future.
