Diabetes-device improvement Current status: Plastered on the body ( 1 -2 weeks endurance ) Huge costs ( approximately 150€ per month = 1800€ yearly ) Proposal (technologies used): Reverse engineering Surgery (subcutaneous implant) Nanotechnology Sending data to the mobile (cloud, drive; chip /external device, monitoring device. . . )
Why? The current product on the market doesn’t work as well as it could increasing amount of potential customers (Diabetes patients) We would approach the problem from the user innovation perspective: in order to help others and to improve an already existing product to make it better The process could be done as well in collaboration with the company (The interaction between citizen innovation and producer innovation paradigm)
3 D printers for commercial use Current status: Accessibility Price Proposal (technologies used): Drawings available online or own (free source, own design ) Internet access (from home) Do&Shop/BYOD (input design and go for a shopping)
Why? 3 D-printers have a huge potential for commercial use We would like to commercialize them by allowing people to repair/replace some parts of their products no need for buying an all new product We want to provide an alternative way to repair and replace broken things sustainability
Bio Reader/Meter Current status: No device/ Nutritional app device exist Proposal ( technologies used): Labeling / barcode , QR codes (in case of app) Farm to your plate (who, how, what) Track the source of the product (where it is produce from original) origin factory
Why? To provide information for consumers about the products they are buying An easy access to information It would increase the transparency of the process behind products Democratizing information In terms of innovating, this would be user innovation that helps others (possibly the whole society we live in)
Thank You for your attention!
