Calibre

Calibre is a wearable metabolic tracker that measures breath in real time. Gas and pressure sensors are housed in a small, light wireless module that clips to a face piece. The face piece is made of clear plastic with a soft silicone gasket that rests below the nose. An adjustable head strap holds the face piece in place without limiting breathing or speech. The sensors record airflow, oxygen, carbon dioxide, humidity and temperature. A linked application shows the readings, so the effects of daily activity and exercise on the body can be followed.

Anycubic Kobra

Anycubic Kobra is a compact 3D printer inspired by the modular design of firearms and fighter jets. The body is black, with dark blue and red details. An automatic leveling function places the platform in a horizontal position without manual setting, which simplifies operation. The print platform combines a PEI coating, spring steel and a soft magnetic layer, so the plate attaches instantly when put down, and printed models are removed by bending it. A 32-bit silent motherboard and an adjustable belt tensioner reduce noise during printing.

Anycubic Photon Nex

Anycubic Photon Nex is a three-dimensional printer designed for desktop use. The printer includes an automatic leveling function, so the platform reaches a horizontal position without manual adjustment. The first printed layer therefore bonds well to the platform. A built-in ultra-quiet driver chip keeps the operating noise below 45 decibels, so printing in a bedroom does not disturb rest. One button opens the front cover, which slides upward without manual effort. The silver-gray body follows a simple form inspired by spaceship cabins and portholes.

Silence

Silence is a sign language translator designed to support communication between deaf people and hearing people. The device converts sign language into spoken audio and converts speech into sign language shown as a holographic projection. A motion sensing module on the front captures gestures, while a module on the back records and plays voice. Translation and processing take place inside the body, which is made of anodized aluminum. The rectangular form measures 40 cm wide, 40 cm deep and 80 cm high, so Silence suits a range of public places.

Bird's Sake Cup

Bird's Sake Cup is a drinking cup designed to limit alcohol intake. The cup holds only 10 ml of liquor, so a drink is taken in small amounts over time. The form recalls a small bird, and the beak holds a hole sized to release the liquor slowly. Bird's Sake Cup supports people who are sensitive to alcohol and people who need to reduce alcohol consumption. The cup is made of transparent acrylic by three-dimensional printing. It measures 40 mm in width, 130 mm in height and 60 mm in depth, and weighs 35 grams.

Moon

This light plays an active role to accompany people in a working space from morning to the night. It was designed with people working environment in mind. The wire can be connected to a laptop computer or a power bank. The shape of the moon was made of three quarters of a circle as a rising icon from a terrain image made of stainless frame. The surface pattern of the moon reminds the landing guide in a space project. The setting looks like a sculpture in the daylight and a light device that comforts the tense of work at night.
