Planck Creator SSD

Planck Creator SSD is a portable solid state drive made for mobile filmmakers. The drive records Apple ProRes and Log video at up to 4K and 120 frames per second directly from a phone. A recycled aluminium heatsink inside the slim enclosure manages heat and supports a sustained write speed of 500 to 550 megabytes per second. A perpendicular USB-C connector lets the drive sit flush with a phone case and keeps the back of the phone clear for gimbal clamps and magnetic accessories. The body measures 50.5 by 17 by 7.3 millimetres, weighs 10 grams and holds up to 2 terabytes.

Ayon

Ayon is a home health system that provides guided coaching in fitness, nutrition, sleep, and daily habits. The system combines an application supported by artificial intelligence, a wearable tracker, and a core device with a camera. The core device has an aluminium base of 85 by 85 by 20 millimetres and a frosted acrylic housing that holds a wide angle camera and a light strip. Visual and voice cues guide exercises, meditation, and breathing. The camera can be tilted down for privacy. Modular hardware allows later upgrades without full replacement.

GKGD

GKGD is a 136-inch interactive display designed for government, education, healthcare and retail settings. The unit combines an LED screen, a sound system and touch control in one body. The body is 22 mm thin and made of aerospace grade aluminum alloy with brushed and powder coated metal surfaces. A metal stand supports the screen and makes installation and removal simple. Eight microphones capture voice within a radius of six meters. The screen can be divided into four sections, so several meetings can be handled at the same time.

The Forum

The Forum is a pavilion designed as a venue for gatherings, public programming and the arts. The structure works as a stage, a screen and a backdrop, so the space can be adapted to different uses. Structure and facade are unified in one language of fluid surfaces made of aerospace grade aluminium. Sixty-six unique panels were shaped by digital sheet forming, without tooling or dies, in under twelve hours. The result is a large, lightweight and modular structure that is quick to produce and can be assembled with basic hand tools.

Saturn 4 Ultra

Saturn 4 Ultra is a UV photocuring 3D printer made for design validation and model printing. Automatic leveling prepares the machine for use at startup, so manual leveling is not required. AI cameras monitor the printing process in real time, and WiFi cluster printing lets several machines work together. Power-off resume printing and material shortage alerts support long print jobs. The casing combines metal with recyclable ABS and PC copolymers. The unit measures 327.4 by 329.2 by 548 millimeters.

Htvront 2

Htvront 2 is an automatic heat press designed for home crafting and small business use. An auto down and up mechanism applies even pressure without manual effort. Pressure can be set across seven levels from 20 to 80 kilograms, while temperature and time remain adjustable for different materials. The pressing height reaches 4.5 centimeters, so thicker items can be used. A slide out drawer and a heat insulating plastic shell reduce heat accumulation and protect users. The heat press shuts off automatically after 15 minutes of inactivity.
