EDGE Original Brief: Create a way for backpackers and modern hikers to charge their phone in any condition. Duration: September 2013 - August 2014
In cooperation with:
DESIGN BRIEF
WHAT • Running out of battery due to no charging opportunities is the core problem
WHO • Digital native who loves independent traveling • Open minded extrovert who enjoys nature
WHERE • Around the world in nature • In all terrains such as mountains, forest, desert etc.
WHY • Independence • Stay connected to family and friends • Ability to call for help • Rising trend of smartphone users
RESEARCH • EDGE has been developed based on results from a two month user research (more than 150 travellers and backpackers were involved) • Focus was on usability, functionality as well as that it is very compact and easy to transport • Analysis of weaknesses and strengths of existing products
CONCLUSIONS • Target wants to be independent & prefers a portable charging device • Possibility to charge at anytime, anywhere under any conditions (e.g. not depending on sun or wind) • Integrated in the common equipment of a backpacker • Should be very compact and space efficient • Electricity should be created by wasted energy
IDEATION & SKETCHING As a conclusion from the research, fire is the most used energy source from the target. Instead of wind or sun, it can be produced at any time and is an ideal source for energy harvesting. After analzying the best way to use Thermoelectric Elements (TEG), inspiration for the shape was taken from stealth design, which has minimalisitc and dynamic strong shapes that support the feeling of a durable and reliable product.

HOW EDGE WORKS
Lid: keeps heat inside the pot and can be used as a pan for frying or baking. Pot: has a 3 litre capacity for a wide range of meals and the round bottom provides heat efficiency. Heat Insulated handle provides good grip for cooking and folds around lid to close the pot when all parts are stacked inside.
COOKING POT & LID EDGE Powerhandle: has a 4.6 Ah Lith-ion battery which is enough to charge the average smart phone three times over.

KETTLE
Firebase: can be used when natural or solid fire sources are used. It protects the fire from the elements and increases effiecency of energy usage during cooking. A hole in the front ensures constant oxygen for the burning process.
Kettle: boils 1 litre of water in a few minutes. It incorporates 2 powerful TEG elements which use the heat difference to generate electricity for battery and connectivity functions in the Powerhandle.

FINAL CONCEPT The EDGE concept is a compact outdoor cooking set that provides a fast and lightweight cooking opportunity in a small compact unit, storable in any backpack. Casual cooking and water boiling is used to power the charging and connectivity functions that are integrated in the Powerhandle. It uses heat while cooking to generate electricity, which is stored in the Power Handle. Mobile devices such as smartphones can be charged anywhere in the outdoors because of a reliable and endless source of battery power. Furthermore, innovative extra features such as the satellite connectivity can safe lifes in an emergency and make EDGE outstanding on the market. Not only is the EDGE concept innovative, but it also aims to meet a growing demand and market of needs for solutions for the modern mobile lifestyle. The concept focuses on improving and innovating existing outdoor charging solutions, which currently are inefficient and do not address a wide enough range of needs.

FINAL CONCEPT
Ecooker How to save energy usage in modern kitchens? 2012 - Summer term Duration: 3 months
In cooperation with:
DESIGN BRIEF
WHAT • Wasting Energy in modern kitchen is the core problem
WHO • Young families or individuals
WHY
WHERE • Modern kitchens in Western Europe
•
Saving Energy and money
IDEATION & SKETCHING Through research in kitchens the common stove was detected as a major energy waste source. The target group wastes energy by: - -
Setting the stove control unnecessarily on full power Inefficient temperatures due to unclear or missing settings
Ideation was about simplifying the usage of a cooktop and making it more efficient at the same time. Thus the reduction to only one control took place.
PROTOTYPING & TESTING
FINAL CONCEPT The final concept “Ecooker” is a smart cooktop that selects the right and efficient temperature for the food without wasting energy. The user places a pot anywhere on the cooking surface and it gets automatically detected. Now the user only needs to choose from the menu what is being cooked and for how long. After the user has the opportunity to relax on the couch and control the cooktop with his tablet or smartphones App. Efficient induction cooktop “Ecooker”: - 5”Inch energy saving AMOLED display that can show recipes - Efficient energy saving cooking methods (Smart eco temperatures) - WiFi connected & comfortable controllable with an App - Smart detection of placed cooking ware Advantages: - Saving energy and money through smart temperature options - Optimal cooking results and no burning - More safety and comfort through App Control
