Crazy Trip

April 29..we have to meet up at Starbuck Coffee, Pavilion. So after we finished our morning class, we have to go there before 2.30pm. The purpose for Pavilion trip is research on available new technology thingy. Before that, we have made a group which is 4 persons in group and my group members are Kevin, Keivan, and Bobby.

Actually when we made our group, we got an interesting idea to present on Urwerk 202 Hammerhead watch. It is a high-tech watch and it has designed without any battery required. The concept of the watch is based on the air friction and kinetic power to function it. Furthermore, the design is very interesting with technological style design esp. the unique of the turbine power. However, we decided to change our product at last minute, the night before the presentation day, even we did a discussion with Teresa about the watch before the presentation week, for certain reason.

Back to the presentation we had done at May 6, it is about Philips Daylight Window. This is another interesting product that Kevin found. And we agree with Kevin even we have to change all the things at last minute. Philips is an electronic company which is producing most of the family electronic product. Basically, it is based on the brand promise, Sense and Simplicity, to give the best service to their consumers. Philips also is one of the biggest electronic companies in the world. It has 128,100 employees in more than 60 countries worldwide. To achieve their promise to the consumers, they always try to improve the quality of life with bringing sustainable innovation technology product into the market. And the product that we had present, Daylight Window, is one of the Philips products with innovation sustainability.

First of all, it is charge with solar power, Photovoltaic, PV, which is converting the sunlight to electricity directly. With this way, Daylight Window can be function for last long without any battery required. So, it could produce the minimal of the energy cost. The special of the product is the innovation design and lighting colour that you can control at anytime follows your habit. You only have to move your hand either right to left or up to down to control it. Somehow, it applies the innovation of design on the window can produce a pleasing environment for the consumers. It also sustains the range of the use of innovation design that we usually see on the poster and TV show either. Beside of this, it produces the natural light such as UV and blue light which is helping on consumer’s health. For those who are travelling a lot, it will reset your body clock and make your body relax. So it really helps either in mentally or physically. Furthermore, it can either block or allow the natural sound from outside and it functions as a alarm to wake you up in the morning.
