Post - time Identification System An identification system which pass on the tradition of using stamp, and improving the security issue at the same time.



Post - time Stamp

for identification system

“the Future of tradition�

Theme: Design for Mailmen

Material: Plastic, Spray paint


CONCEPT Mailmen

Mailman is an employee of a post office or postal service, who delivers mail and parcel post to residences and businesses. 郵差,一個大家熟悉的職業。近年來電子商務蓬勃發 展觸及每個人的生活,郵務量因此增加,郵差們的工 作並沒有因為數位化而變得較為輕鬆。然而諷刺的是 在自動化、數位化發展下,郵差的工作正面臨被機器 取代的可能性。如何減輕郵差的負擔同時使他們的工 作與未來科技接軌成了本設計的核心議題。


Sense Intent Science and technology had made a lot of progress these years, and many post works were mechanized. However, postmen’s job did not keep up with the digitalized trends. They still working under the traditional way. In such E-commerce era, the increasing amount of express mail makes their job harder. 隨著科技的進步諸多郵務逐漸機械化,但基層郵差的總總工作內容並未跟上數位化的變遷,仍維持著傳統的 方式,面對電商物流時代,快捷郵件增多,他們的工作更加辛苦

Know Context These days, there is more and more registered mail, but the process and way of signing receipt have not changed. Inflexible rules still there, such as stamping is a must when signing for the registered mail. 各式掛號信件越來越多,但簽收的流程與方式並沒有改變,許多時候仍必須蓋印才能簽收

Know People Many postmen attach their Inkpad onto their motorbike mirrors so they can be more efficient on work. However, it brings potential risk to their work. 許多郵差為求效率,將印泥綁在機車後照鏡上卻造成行進中的不安全


RESEACH Using stamp is part of Chinese culture tradition, hence it is still widely use by government institution. However, in such digital era with advence replication technology. Is stamp really the most secure way of identity authentication? 用印是漢文化的傳統,因此公家機關仍多以沿用。然而在一個數位化的時代, 複製技術越來越進步;印章真的是最安全的身份認證方式嗎?

MAKOKO Makoko is an on water slum community at Lagos, Nigeria. For nearly 100 years it has thrived on the fishing and sawing industries.

It is a highly dense and urbanized area, yet it has no roads, no lands, and no mordern infrastructure.

RESEACH Sense Intent Lack of drainage and sanitation system resulting in water pollution and water-related diseases (typhoid, malaria, diarrhea, and cholera), also making local lack of clean domestic water. 當地缺乏排水道、公共衛生系統,進而造成環境水污染,引發水源相關傳染病 (傷寒,瘧疾,腹瀉和霍亂);同 時缺乏乾淨民生用水

Know Context Most residents there are used to excret directly into the sea. Garbage and other household organic waste are also dumped into the sea or burnt directly (also causing air pollution). Although some residents have dry toilets and septic tanks. 當地多數居民直接排泄於海中, 垃圾、其他生活中的有機廢物也皆傾倒於海裡或燒掉(也型成空氣物染), 雖然部分居民家中設有乾式廁所及化糞池

Know People Lacking of hygiene notion, waste handlers who empty the septic tanks still simply dump the excreta into the lagoon without treatment and causing water pollution. 然而缺乏衛生觀念,相關人員清理完化糞池仍直接將排遺 倒入海中,造成水污染


IDEATION

降低摩擦力 LiquiGlide® is a multi-layer, liquid-impregnated surface, consisting of a customized solid texture and a liquid. The highly textured solid surface is composed of a matrix of features spaced sufficiently close to stably contain the impregnating liquid that fills in the spaces between the features. The liquid is held in place within the texture, creating a slippery, liquid surface. Over time, the surface continues to be slippery because the liquid is permanently held in place within the textures.

Dawnlight Light Therapy System A light therapy system that improves clinical depression patients' emotion and sleep disorder problem.



Dawnlight

“Your sunlight behind the curtain.”

Theme: Product Semenstic

Material: Plastic, Spray paint


CONCEPT Emotion and Body language interact with each other Change one, and the other will also be changed

Emotion

Body language

upright/aggrandize posture = positive mood

The data shows that 90% of clinical depression patients suffer from sleep disorder. Light therapy can not only resolves their emotional problem, but also used to adjust their sleep disorder (insomnia). I tried to design a light therapy system which meets multiple patients’ needs and contain integration of treatment processes, and meanwhile I tried to design the product with semantic meaning, hoping this product can resolve the patients’ problems and also making the process of light therapy more humane and warmer.


RESEACH/ IDEATION Sense Intent

90%

of clinical depression patient suffer from sleep disorder

Know Context Study shows that after 2 weeks of body language inprovement, patient who suffer from depression became more positive Light therapy is used to treat both mental and sleep disorders.

Know People It’s hard to institute a significant change in their lifestyle by spending more time outdoors and getting the light they need on a daily basis.


PRODUCT SEMENSTIC Usually, light treatment used upon awakening since the sleep regulator hormone is inhibited by light as registered by photosensitive ganglion cells in the retina. Imaging “waking up in the morning and then drawing the curtains, the sunlight shine through the window, while you stretching a bit to embrace the new day” , the product semantic o f D aw n l i g h t i s j u s t l i ke t h e image: open the light just like d ra w i n g c u r t a i n s w h e n yo u wake up.

First thing after waked “Drawing the curtain, stretching your body then embaced by the s


d up:

sunlight �


PRODUCT F E AT U R E The study shows that posture and emotions can affect each other, making 2 to 3 minutes positive, expansive posture can lead to positive emotions. The movement of “drawing the curtains" coincides with the expansive and positive body language. On Dawnlight’s handle, there is a physiological signal sensor which can detect the user's blood pressure, heartbeat and summed up the ECG. The sensing process should be maintained for 2 to 3 minutes, which is as long as the positive emotions triggering time ( triggered by expansive posture). Turning on Dawnlight system not only light it up but also detecting patients’ physiological signals at the same time which guide the user to stretch and resolve their emotion problem. (By comparing the physiological signals with data from the database, the patient's current mood can be monitored in a scientific way. The mood data then synchronized to the APP, where quantitative data be presented in order to understand and monitor patient’s the condition).

Sound Event Data Recorder Experimental Vehicle Sound Event Data Recorder, using the vintage technology of Phonograph to record the movement of the vehicle.


Sound Event Data Recorder The Experimental Vehicle

The Sound of 10 meters

Material: Wood, Iron, Leather, Rubber




Inspirations How phonograph, and vinyl work

When you place a record onto a record player, the needle on the stylus retraces the groove that has been cut into the record. As it retraces the groove, it recreates the sounds which caused the groove to bend and form in the first place by transferring the vibrations to a diaphragm in a speaker which picks up the sound and amplifies it to a reasonable level.


Concept How the recorder work

The movement vibration waveforms are recorded as corresponding physical deviations of a spiral groove engraved, etched or impressed into the surface of a rotating cylinder.

An event data recorder is a device installed in some automobilesto record information relatedto vehicle crashes or accidents. EDRs are triggered by sudden change in wheel speed. Sound Event Data Recorder (SEDR) is something similar to EDR, using the vintage technology of Phonograph to record the movement of the vehicle. Acceleration, deceleration and brake can be heard from the SEDR system. Even the undulation of landform can be differed from the sound.

Form study and creation



Form Study and Creation

Project brief

Before the course, each student was assigned a brand, and we have to record, analysis and understand the brand's design language, then create geometric form following brand's design language principle. 課程開始前每人被指派一個品牌,並針對該品牌現有產品的造型語彙進行記錄、 分析,彙整邏輯化後成為造型應用原則並運用在幾何造型上。

Design Language

Form language dissection 造型解剖分析

Document and analyze the design language. Create a formal document, apply attribute words to each design element. 收集產品照片、記錄、分析、解剖主體形態結構與細節處的造型語彙。

From Week1 to Week2 First week: Round, Simple and Sharp as the main axis, and try to visualize the relationship between the other vocabulary and the three. But some of the first week vocabulary is based on subjective perception, and being too abstract For example: Friendy, Confident. There are also some vocabulary that is not precise enough, and the form can not be defined clearly. Such as: Consistency, Characteristic.

Second week: Replacing the unsuitable terms to more concrete, precise ones. Visually defining the exact meaning of each term by outlining the car body (shape, line, surface) and comparing with Lexus which has the great differences in style.


Week 1 抽象模糊

Abstract, Vague

Week 2 具象精準

Concrete, Precise

第一週時在挑選語彙時以Round, Simple跟Sharp 為主軸,並試著把其他語彙跟三者的關係做出視覺上的關聯。 但第一週的語彙有部分著墨於過於抽象的觀感形容, 例如:Friendy, Confident, 亦有部分語彙不夠精準無法明確定義出造型上的意義, 像是:Consistency, Characteristic。 在第二週時便用更具象、精準的語彙替換上週四個不適合的語彙。同時定義出每個語彙的確切意涵。 藉由勾勒出與會在車身上所呈現的樣貌,並和風格差異極大的Lexus作比較來圖像化所有語彙




Proportion/Importance Round Sharp Simple Straightforward

Accord Steady Smooth Accurate Dynamic

Sharp(銳利), Simple(簡單), Straghtforward(直) 是VW最重要的三個語彙,而Round有著呼應logo與延續老VW 意象的意涵,雖然近年來整體輪廓轉為銳利,不再是核心語彙 ,但仍有著基礎幾何上的重要性(跟Sharp同為最具象的語彙)。 綜合以上幾點,便把圓放於首位、列為主軸。 Accord(一致), Steady(沈穩), Smooth(平) 在外觀上也有一定的重要性。Accord描述出了線條的規則, Steady道出線條造型上的意象,Smooth說明出面與面間的關係。 而Accurate(精準)算是由功能影響到造型上的補述。 Dynamic(動感)同樣是線條所帶出造型上的意象, 看似與Steady(沈穩)相互矛盾,但兩者和諧共存。 Steady是整體而言;Dynamic是點綴, 畢竟是車,再沈穩,還是不能沒有動感意象



Ideation Process initial Mock-ups and sketches

Concept Dynamice and steady asymmetry 不對稱的動感與沈穩 Car body is very symmetrical form, trying to use the asymmetry shape to show VW’s dynamic and steady feature. 車體造型都極為對稱,試圖顛覆對稱的量體 以不對稱的造型表現VW的動感與沈穩

VW speedform 福斯概念速度造型 VW’s appearance is extremely calm and low-key. Its curves and surface is really stable, compared to Lexus and BMW's streamlined "flaming surface”. Speedform doesn’t seem to have something to do with VW, so I try to imagine how VW’s speedform would look like. VW的外型極為沈穩,線條、曲面穩健,相較於Lexus與BMW的奔放跳躍流線曲面 speedform與VW似乎沒有關係,是想像若VW有speedform會如何呈現
