UPPS is a collective of innovators, thinkers, and makers from TU Delft.
The UPPS team is passionate about the personalisation of products and services and help lead a transformation towards an inclusive future where every product is designed with the precise needs and dimensions of the individual in mind. UPPS consists of a group of professors and academic researchers from TU Delft who collaborate with students, other technical universities, and industry partners.
Our UPPS TU Delft Lead team help to navigate the complex landscape of designing and producing personalised products. These experts, coming from TU Delft and renowned for their expertise, are the cornerstone of our mission. They not only provide strategic direction but also inspire a culture of innovation, ensuring our projects address real-world challenges.
The UPPS Project Leaders are responsible for turning academic research into real-world results. They lead projects that create 3D data and push the limits of personalised design. With a solid understanding of both the science and the practical side of personalisation, they guide their teams through the challenges of testing prototypes and improving design processes, making sure each project helps us achieve our main goal of ultra-personalisation.
Next UPPS was a unique interdisciplinary collaboration between the Dutch manufacturing industry and design studios, aimed at transferring knowledge and tools from the lab to production. Project leaders within this group guided the research projects, exploring cutting-edge personalisation technologies. Their work was crucial in advancing our understanding of 3D scanning, 3D printing, and other emerging technologies. By leading projects that combined applied research with technological innovation, they played a key role in developing new methods and tools for personalised production.
The researchers within Next UPPS were the driving force behind our projects with partners. They conducted the essential applied research that steered our initiatives. Their dedication to research, data analysis, prototype testing, and method improvement allowed us to push the boundaries of personalisation technologies.
