In a short introduction about the Why for UPPS Daan van Eijk indicated that Improved Fit, More insight in your customer population, creating a Long term customer relation and Less waste as the main reason to design and produce ultra-personalised products. Next to that al list of the most important challenges for UPPS, were indicated, such as: Convincing the user while having no tangible product at purchase time, Access to consumer data, Expensive scanning equipment, Privacy & Ethics, Design for Variability, Flexible and one-off production capabilities creates complicated ethics. Reason enough for the UPPS team to continue collaborations with companies and students to tackle more of these challenges in a future Graduation Lab evolving around UPPS!

Ultra Personalised Office Chair for the Home Environment, Leon Zondervan, Zon & Hoofd

Leon Zondervan and Koen Hoofd from Zon+Hoofd, just did not like the ergonomic and office look of the common office chair for the home environment. They saw a great opportunity in creating a modern chair that was comfortable as well, by personalisation. During his graduation, Max Morres created an algorithm for this a new office chair that is modern and minimalistic. By providing the right measures a personalised chair can be adapted to the user and 3D printed. Zon + Hoofd showed how the input of a set of relevant user data (like leg length, back curvature, body width) will feed the algorithm to create the ultimate support and a comfortable chair that has an appropriate look ‘n feel without the association without the office and ergonomic look.

UPPS in Education, Advanced Prototyping  - Willemijn Elkhuizen, TU Delft

Willemijn Elkhuizen is coordinator of the Minor Advanced Manufacturing. Students are challenged to find and design their own personalised DIY topic to learn more about advanced manufacturing techniques, also used for UPPS. This resulted in Funky ski Googles, personalised bicycle seats, climbing shoes, rowing boat seats, hearing protection as jewellery and much more.  

Next to that, Willemijn coached graduation students in collaborating with societal partners. Together with Brandwondenziekenhuis, a personalised Severe Burns Collar with a silicon layer to heal burning wounds was developed. In collaboration with Ocularists a template was developed for customising artificial eyes (Ocular Prosthetics), that are personalised in shape, appearance and produced by multimaterial 3D printing.

Want to learn more about Advance prototyping? Take a look at the: Open interactive Textbook on computational design, the book-like website will introduce you into this fascinating design world.

Crafting Custom Experiences, key learning from developing UPPS, Frank Schoenmaker, nSize

What is the Added value of personalisation? Frank Schoenmaker from nSize had a clear message: Be clear about where your personalisation adds value and how.

For instance for the Breathing Masks for children in the ICU the leakage of air was reduced from 60% to 30% leakage.

Next to that: determine the right price point and you will position yourself in a sweet spot in the market place.

No Wave too High, personalisation in sit kites, Willem Hooft, Willem Hooft Foundation

Since 7 years Willem Hooft uses a wheelchair as a result of a car accident. He always was a fanatic windsurfer, but from that point on he has dedicated his life and energy to be 1) a world record player in sit kite surfing and 2) enabling sporters with limited body functions to go kite surfing. He initiated two projects: to produce affordable sit kite gear for sporters with limited body functions and to create the best possible ultra personalized seat for him self.

For professional sit kites it is key to be as light as possible to make the highest jumps. The empty space in the seat between back and sit contains heavy water. The focus of this project was too reduce the empty space and thereby reducing the water volume, that hinders the height of the jump, by ultra personalisation. Another insight from this project was that, to be able to initiate the highest jump, it is crucial to deploy all available muscle strength in the body. A more upright position can ensure this. In combination with the light structure of Pet and carbon, both interventions together resulted in a new world record; a 11,1 meter high  jump!

Het UPPS Symposium Perfect Fit evenement vond plaats op donderdag 20 april 2023 aan de Faculteit Industrieel Ontwerpen in Delft. Dit symposium, georganiseerd door Fieldlab UPPS en NEXT UPPS en financieel ondersteund door CLICKNL, NWO, TU Delft en private partners, was toegankelijk voor iedereen die geïnteresseerd was in onderzoek en ontwikkeling van UPPS.

‍

Het symposium bracht een diverse groep deelnemers samen, waaronder onderzoekers, ontwerpers, professionals uit de industrie en studenten die gepassioneerd zijn over ultra-gepersonaliseerde producten en diensten (UPPS). De deelnemers hadden de mogelijkheid om ervaringen te delen, in contact te komen met experts, potentiële UPPS-technologieën te verkennen, deel te nemen aan discussies en te reflecteren op de uitdagingen en kansen die gepaard gaan met de ontwikkeling van UPPS.

‍

Het evenement werd afgetrapt met een warm welkom en introductie door projectleider Professor Daan van Eijk, die een compacte update gaf over het het werk dat zowel binnen het fieldlab UPPS-project en het NEXT UPPS-project is verricht. Daarop volgden projectpresentaties vanuit vier verschillende industrieën, waaronder gepersonaliseerde avatars voor lingerie (HYPERcurve studio), gepersonaliseerde oordopjes (Dopple), gepersonaliseerde non-invasieve beademingsmaskers voor kinderen op de kinder-IC (Amsterdam UMC) en de toepassing van UPPS in ontwerp en innovatie in de wielren topsport (Team DSM). De presentaties van alle projectpartners kun je hier terugzien: HYPERcurve studio, Dopple, Amsterdam UMC, Team DSM.

‍

‍

Deelnemers konden vervolgens kiezen uit een van de vier verschillende workshops, elk gefaciliteerd door één of twee Next UPPS onderzoekers. De workshops behandelden verschillende thema’s, waaronder 3D/4D scanning en design automatisering, services voor gebruikersparticipatie, productie-uitdagingen en de verschillende aspecten van de UPPS-ontwikkelingscyclus vanuit het perspectief van een bedrijf, allemaal gerelateerd aan ultra-personalisatie.

‍

‍

‍

Het symposium werd afgesloten met een inspirerende keynote van Peter Joosten, een futurist en biohacker. Vanuit de huidige technologische ontwikkelingen en trends legde hij verbanden met de vier UPPS-domeinen (gezondheid, mode, veiligheid en sport) en gaf op basis daarvan zijn visie over toekomstige richtingen voor UPPS. Joosten bood ook advies over hoe UPPS nog succesvoller zou kunnen worden gemaakt!

‍

Al met al was het UPPS Symposium Perfect Fit een groot succes omdat het een uniek platform bood voor het delen van kennis, netwerken en het verzamelen van ideeën voor toekomstige samenwerking op het gebied van ultra-personalisatie van producten en diensten.

‍

Met dank aan iedereen die ons symposium heeft bijgewoond. We waarderen uw tijd en inzet en we hopen dat u contact blijft houden!

In het professionele wielrennen worden mannequins gebruikt voor aerodynamische metingen in windtunnels. Het voordeel van mannequins is dat er een standaardpositie kan worden ingenomen welke gedurende de verschillende testen niet verandert zoals ,een echt persoon wel zou doen, waardoor testresultaten goed vergelijkbaar zijn. Daarnaast is het ook een logistiek en praktisch voordeel om een mannequin te gebruiken voor de testen in plaats van echte wielrenners met een overvolle agenda.

Wielermannequins hebben zichzelf al bewezen maar er zijn nog altijd verbeteringen mogelijk om het gebruik van de mannequins verder te optimaliseren. Hierbij denken we aan praktischer in het gebruik, meerdere posities voor dezelfde mannequin, een automated workflow voor het verwerken van een 3D scan naar fysieke mannequin en geoptimaliseerd gebruik van materialen.

Doel samenwerking en kennisontwikkeling

Het doel van het project is het procesontwerp om van een 3D-scan van een wielrenner een life-size fysiek wielermannequin te maken in meerdere posities. Deze mannequin moet tegen een stootje kunnen en praktisch zijn in het gebruik van aerodynamica testen.

Samenwerking en kennisontwikkeling

De kennisontwikkeling vond plaats als samenwerking tussen Team DSM, Fieldlab UPPS (Industrieel ontwerpen, TU Delft), en Aerodynamica (Lucht en Ruimtevaart, TU Delft).

Door het combineren van praktische sportkennis en onderzoek is het mogelijk geweest om tot een nieuw ontwerp te komen voor het testen van aerodynamica van een mannequin in de wind tunnel.

Tijdens het studentenproject zijn 10 renners gescand op een koersfiets en op de tijdritfiets. Een gewogen gemiddelde is gemaakt per positie om een generieke mannequin op een tijdritfiets en op de wegfiets te maken.

Er zijn modellen gegenereerd en deze worden als open-source modellen gedeeld en 3D geprint. De generieke modellen zullen dienen als een golden standard voor aerodynamica onderzoeken in zowel CFD als wind tunnel analyses. Hierdoor kunnen verschillende onderzoeksinstituten research met elkaar vergelijken.

Tijdens het project is een mannequin prototype geprint om technieken te onderzoeken voor het praktische gebruik van de uiteindelijke mannequins. De mannequin moest makkelijk handelbaar zijn, verschillende fietskleding kunnen dragen en goed aan de fiets bevestigd kunnen worden.

Bovenstaande engineeringvraagstukken zijn behandeld en vervolgens is een prototype is gemaakt, dat uit verschillende segmenten bestaat waardoor het makkelijk te hanteren en vervoeren is.

Na het fieldlabs UPPS project is de productie van de mannequins gestart en zijn de laatste details aan de virtuele modellen verbeterd. Het uiteindelijke doel is om de eerste CFD en windtunnel testen te starten in april 2023.
