Red Dot Award, the Oscar in the design field, released its winning list recently. The 3 products invented by students from Department of Industrial Design of YunTech were granted awards in the category of Concept Award because of their design powers and creativities.

The awarded products are listed below:

“Fun Pinball,” awarded  a Red Dot Design Award-Best of the Best, was invented by students Chen Li-jung, Tsai Nin-han, Lin Yi-fong, Kao Yu-ting, Lin Yi-ru, Zeng Yu-shao, Chen Yi-hua and Lin Yu-wen under the instructions of Lecturer Ching-hsu Chang of the Department of Industrial Design. The design concept of the product is to integrate the ideas of drawing and rail construction. Kids do not only play pinball but also build it. The rails are not limited to traditional rails, but they also act as a drawing papers for kids to use their imagination, thus making the pinballs unique. While building the pinballs, kids learn how to interact with their team members at the same time.

“Garden System,” awarded the Red Dot Design Award-Winner, was invented by students Gu Wen-min and Li Chi-yuan under the instructions of Assistant Professor Yu Yuan-liang and Lecturer Chang Chian-hsu of the Department of Industrial Design. The design concept of the product is to combine loose media, mat media and structural media of a green wall into one unit for growing plants and producing solar power with polar panels. The green wall is composed of different units containing the above medias, which provide a lot of waterways and consequently serve as the water circulating system for the plants. Due to the wide area taken up by green plants, which blocks the strong sunlight, the green wall is a good choice since it can be placed outdoors or in open places of buildings. Moreover, the sunlight absorbed in the day by the solar panels can be transformed into solar power for use at night.

“Future Desk,” awarded the Red Dot Design Award-Winner, was invented by students Chen Yun-yu and Hsieh Yi-hsiung under the instruction of Adjunct Associate Professor Yeh Po-shiung of the Department of Industrial Design. The design concept was to invent a desk that will fit the learning environment in the future. Group discussion and presentation are the 2 main teaching and learning modes in most university classes. The teaching and learning styles are changing; however, the desks being currently used are still the old ones that have been passed on from past generations. Based on the idea of group discussions, the future desk is easy to move. The top of the desk is equipped with a touch screen which allows students to show their ideas on their screens and white boards to create more interactions in class, thus fitting the needs of the future learning environment.

The Department of Industrial Design of YunTech showed their design ability and creativity at the international design contest and presented the design power of the department of YunTech.
